Happy #GivingTuesday

Student Council enjoyed making holiday door decorations for Hospice of South Texas. This month our character trait is "caring". Students also participated in #GivingTuesday which is a campaign that encourages us to think about others in the community during the holiday season. With the rush of gift giving and receiving, we often forget to look outside ourselves. Take time this season and enjoy the gift of giving!

Happy Veterans Day

Thank you to all the men and women that have served in the military. Mrs. Young, our music teacher, did a wonderful job preparing the students at Guadalupe and William Wood for their Veterans Day program. Many veterans were guests in the audience and honored for their service to our country. Below are a few pictures of the military men I am grateful for in my life: my father and grandfathers.

Generation TX Month

Generation TX month encourages students to look ahead at the college career. At the elementary level we focus on college exploration. Students learned about colleges and different majors based on their career aspirations: actress, doctor, scientist, etc. We then looked up top ranking colleges for these professions. We also looked up state colleges and local colleges in Victoria The students then made "College-Balls" (instead of poke-balls) with their college colors for our "College Go!! Gotta Set a Goal" bulletin board.
