Some of our High School students had the opportunity to attend the Region 5 Co-Op Food Show in Lufkin, Texas! 🎉
Students got to sample and try out new food products that may be making their way onto next school year's menu! What a fun and exciting way to let our students have a voice and be part of the decisions about what’s being served in their cafeterias! 🥗🍕
They had a blast, got to try lots of new things, and let's just say… they definitely didn't leave hungry! 😂 Their stomachs were FULL, and their smiles were even bigger!
A big thank you to Region 5 Co-Op for this awesome opportunity! ❤️
Who says school food can't be fun?! 🙌

On Tuesday the Spurger cross country team competed at the regional meet in Corpus Christi. Even though they had to endure heavy rain and muddy conditions, the team performed great. Out of 21 teams and 150 runners, Spurger placed 6th as a team overall in our region. Caleb Grissom and Kade Simpson placed 67 and 89, Dawson Heim and Zechariah Grissom placed 43 and 45, with Luke Grotte placing 39th. Leading the team was Kyle Grissom who came in 16th overall earning him a spot to compete at the state meet in Round Rock on Saturday. We are very proud of all the dedication each runner has put in this year, and we are excited to see Kyle advance and run at the state level. It is a great achievement that has taken a great deal of commitment and he is very deserving of the opportunity. Good luck to Kyle, we know he will do amazing things.
What an amazing season Spurger Pirates cross country!

As we enter the season when respiratory illnesses become more common, Spurger ISD encourages our community to stay informed and take steps to protect ourselves, our families, and those around us.

💙 A few simple reminders:
• Practice good hand hygiene.
• Cover coughs and sneezes.
• Stay home when feeling sick.
• Seek medical care if symptoms become severe.
Together, we can help keep our Spurger Pirate community healthy and safe! 🏴☠️
