A colorful afternoon at Snyder Primary School!
On Thursday, SPS hosted its Student of the Week/Month Celebration for the last six weeks. A total of 57 students were invited to participate in the special recognition event.
Students had the chance to celebrate their hard work and positive example while getting creative. Art Teacher Mitzy Young led the group in a fun tie-dye bag activity, giving each student a chance to design something unique to take home.
It was a bright and joyful way to recognize students who are making a difference on campus. ❤️





Many sticks closer!
Snyder High School Health Science students held a phlebotomy clinic yesterday to sharpen their skills and practice blood draws as part of their preparation to earn their phlebotomy certification.
The Health Science program is a strong pathway for students interested in exploring careers in healthcare. Through hands-on learning and real-world practice, students build the skills and confidence needed to work in medical settings.
Upon successful completion of the program, students can graduate from high school with their phlebotomy certification. That certification can open the door to immediate employment after graduation or serve as a stepping stone toward further education and opportunities in the healthcare field.





Teachers who completed the mini benchmark window received a sweet surprise today with a Minnie Mouse–themed delivery of mini donuts. It was a fun way to celebrate wrapping up an important checkpoint in the school year and bring a little “happiest place on earth” energy to campus.
While the celebration was lighthearted, the work behind it is meaningful. Benchmarks provide teachers with valuable insight into what students understand, where additional support may be needed, and how instruction can be adjusted to help every student succeed.
A little celebration for a job well done and important work that helps guide learning in the classroom.

SHS Tennis Update 🎾 Another strong showing for the Tigers!
Sarah battled her way to a 2nd-place finish, falling just short to Randall High School’s No. 1 singles player, who qualified for state in Girls Doubles last year.
In the consolation finals, it was an all-Tiger matchup. Bea and Anna faced teammates Avery and Cerise in a competitive battle that showcased the depth of our program. Bea and Anna came out on top, but it was a win for the whole team seeing Tigers push Tigers.

A little gift of time is headed our way.
Just a reminder that there is no school on Friday or Monday in observance of the Presidents' Day weekend.
We hope our students and staff enjoy a few extra days to rest, recharge, and spend time with the people who matter most. Whether that means catching up on sleep, heading out of town, or simply slowing down at home, we hope it’s a good reset.
We will see everyone back on Tuesday, ready to learn and lead. 💛
