🍎 Today’s Lunch Recap at Spurger ISD! 🌮 What a tasty day in the cafeteria! In the Hotline, students got to try our NEW Chicken Quesadilla with Taco Sauce, served alongside Spanish Rice and Refried Beans — a big hit! Over on the Grab ’n Go Line, favorites like Popcorn Chicken with Texas Garlic Toast were served up, or students could choose a Smucker’s PBJ Sandwich with Scooby Snacks for a quick and fun meal. Both lines featured fresh Broccoli with Ranch, Celery Sticks with Peanut Butter, and plenty of Fresh California Oranges and Texas-Grown Gala Apples — all part of our Fresh Fruit & Veggie Challenge! 🍊🥦

Reminder for Pre-K through 2nd Grade Families

For the safety of our elementary students, a parent or guardian must be visible and present at the bus stop during both drop-off and pick-up times for Pre-K through 2nd grade students.
If a parent or guardian is not present at the time of drop-off, the student will not be released from the bus and will be transported back to the bus barn. Parents and/or Guardians will then be responsible for picking up their child from the school.

Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us ensure every child’s safety.

🎉 BOOM CLAP! Learning is a Blast in Pre-K! 🎉

Our Pre-K kiddos had a blast playing a game called Boom Clap! 🧠✨

Through music and movement, they explored letter sounds and practiced matching them with what the letters look like. 👂🔤👀
Every "BOOM" and every "CLAP" helped build their phonics skills — and made learning FUN!

Way to go, little learners! 💥👏💛
