We’re still collecting socks to support Hays County kids from head to toe! 🧦 We’re currently at 225 pairs toward our goal of 700, and we need your help!

If every student brought just ONE pair of socks, we would reach our goal! Let’s work together to make a difference, one pair at a time!

When a third grader writes a persuasive letter to the principal advocating for friends to be placed together in class, you know she’s putting her writing skills to work!

Our solution? A WIN-WIN! The principal got to enjoy lunch with the student and her two friends, giving everyone some special time together. A great example of persuasive writing in action and finding creative solutions!

✨ WIN: What I Need! ✨

Every student is unique, and so are their learning needs! During WIN time, students engage in differentiated tasks designed just for them—whether that means enrichment to extend their thinking or targeted interventions to strengthen skills. We meet students where they are and provide what they need to grow, learn, and thrive!
