Sivells Bend ISD MARCH MENU

Warriors, Please welcome a new Warrior to our Tribe... Mr. Terry Whitehead is our new Bus Driver. Mr. Whitehead has about 10 years of experience driving school buses. Please introduce yourselves to Mr. Whitehead

Parents, Our Warriors will be coming home today, Thursday, 2/26, with a letter from the school detailing updates and introductions that affect every Warrior in our Tribe.
Sivells Bend Elementary experienced a 'hurdle' today. The internet fiber that is run from Ft. Worth to SBISD was 'cut' in / during a construction sight. This 'technological issue' caused our 3rd - 8th graders to postpone the STAAR Interim Assessment. We will restart on Friday, 2/27.
Additionally, the internet interruption also cut our phone system to receiving and placing 'outside' calls. When such an event occurs, Sivells Bend ISD uses a backup wifi / 'hotspot' to allow low internet usage for maintaining our internal phone system, enough internet strength to support the access controls to our exterior doors and gates and to ensure a direct-contact with emergency services. Thank You , SBISD

SIVELLS BEND ISD ` * SPRING BREAK * March 9 - 13 Monday, March 16 - Staff Professional Development Day (No School for students)

SIVELLS BEND ISD Texas Public Schools Week OPEN HOUSE Thursday, March 5 5:15 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. Open House is a special evening dedicated to our students and staff, highlighting the hard work and accomplichments achieved throughout the year. * The Builder's Club will host their annual fundraiser, selling Elotes (Mexican Street Corn) in the gym from 5:15 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. * Junior High Trip Parent Meeting (7th & 8th grades): 5:15 p.m. in the cafeteria. This meeting is mandatory for both parents and students.

Students in grades 3rd thru 8th will take the STAAR Interim Assessments starting this week: 2/24 - 2 /26.
STAAR Interim assessments are subject-specific tests designed to mirror the format and expectations of the actual STAAR exam. They are shorter and broader in scope, helping gauge students’ understanding and their ability to apply learned skills. These assessments also help students become familiar with what to expect on the official STAAR tests.
We will dedicate three days to STAAR Interim testing while continuing regular classes throughout the day. Only one subject will be tested per day:
• Tuesday, 2/24 – Science (5th grade)
• Wednesday, 2/25 – Math (3rd–8th grades)
• Thursday, 2/26 – Reading/Language Arts (3rd–8th grades)

SIVELLS BEND ISD Losing More Teeth

Parents / Guardians, The Fold on Grand Ave. (our Gainesville Transfer bus stop location) will be redoing and expanding their parking lot tomorrow, Thursday 2/19, and Friday 2/20. This project may also extend to Monday, 2/23. We will confirm Monday’s status by this Friday. To ensure we can continue operating the Gainesville Transfer Route during this time, we will temporarily relocate the bus stop to the southeast corner of the Wal-Mart parking lot in Gainesville. This is the area closest to the Murphy convenience store. Wal-Mart has graciously given us permission to use this space. Please note: The school bus will not remain parked overnight at this location. The bus should arrive at approximately 6:30 a.m. Please park only in designated parking spaces to maintain normal traffic flow and allow the bus to park safely between rows. For safety and security, I am requesting that all parents/guardians escort their child to and from the bus door. If you have any questions or need clarification, please contact the school at 940-665-6411. Thank you,

SIVELLS BEND ISD - 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders learned how to crimp pie crust dough around the edges and make a lattice topped pie & peel apples. They learned about cherries and the cherry pitting tool. They learned how cornstarch thickens the juices and a pinch of salt makes a pie better. They learned that apple pies should be mounded before baking and berry pies should not! We had a crazy, noisy, wonderful day creating… and we aren’t done yet! Stay tuned!
