Mrs. Vera's 2nd Grade class headed straight to the roll-off recycling container with all of their bottles! Although we aren't requiring you to count bottles this year (we are using bag size instead), some classes can't resist! The class collected 1,384 bottles on Tuesday! The challenge ends THURSDAY! May the greenest grade win! Learn more here: www.snyderisd.net/recycle
With the bottle challenge in full swing, recycling is on the minds of all of our students! Mrs. Hough's 3rd-grade class visited Mrs. Stewart's Art Class and created art out of recycled items such as bottle caps, old legos, empty bottles, wheels, and more!
Don't forget! Friday, April 15th is a student and staff holiday. Enjoy your three day weekend!

Attention 8th Grade Parents! Is your student interested in taking dual-credit college classes while in high school? Perhaps they are interested in a P-Tech Pathway like automotive, carpentry, computers, drones, healthcare, law enforcement, oil & gas, plant science, teaching, or welding. Or, maybe they want to pursue both!
Snyder High School will host a parent meeting Tuesday, April 12 at 6 PM in the SHS cafeteria to answer any further questions for dual credit/P-TECH courses.
Also on the 12th, during WIN periods, SHS will visit Junior High students interested in Dual-Credit/P-Tech. They will discuss how students can earn tuition through the Opportunity Scholarship.
From Snyder High School Health Sciences Teacher Courtney Garcia, RN: My students finished their venipuncture in class and I just wanted to say thank you! Of those who volunteered, 89% of all sticks were fellow students and 11% were family, faculty, and outside volunteers! We appreciate everyone who volunteered their time (and blood) to help these students earn valuable experience in the healthcare field.
They have completed the didactic and skills part required. The next step to becoming Certified Phlebotomy Technician is the exam in mid-April.

Today Scurry County EMS visited the Health Sciences Class to teach STOP THE BLEED. Each student received certification as a provider. This is their second week of First Aid and patient triage in Principles of Health. In addition to this training, students will receive a BLS card ( CPR). Additional emergencies that will be covered will be poisonings and splinting of fractures. At the end of the year, students will apply this knowledge in a mass injury staged event.
This morning in Lubbock, Logan Michael, a third grade student at Snyder Primary Elementary School placed 4th at the Regional Spelling Bee! Logan competed against the district champion 3rd-8th grade spellers from across the region. Competing at this level requires hours and hours of practice studying a spelling list of over 4,000 words!
Join us in congratulating Logan! He represented Snyder ISD and Snyder Primary Elementary School extraordinarily well!

During the most recent staff development day, Snyder Primary School and DAEP staff attended Youth Mental First Aid training. Trainers were from local mental health agencies including West Texas Centers and the Betty Hardwick Center. The training equips participants to recognize and respond to youth and adolescents who are experiencing mental health challenges or who are in crisis. The course introduces common mental health challenges youth experience and teaches a 5 step action plan for how to help young people in both crisis and non-crisis situations. The training is designed for teachers, parents, caregivers, family members, school staff, neighbors, and other caring citizens and gives them steps to take to help.
To learn more, visit mhfa.org. Our counselors also have resources to help. Reach out at snyderisd.net/page/counselors.

In Mrs. Soliz's reading class, students became inference detectives to solve the Case of the Secret Valentine. Students collected clues and gathered up suspects. After each clue, they removed suspects who did not fit the criteria. By the last clue, they solved the case by inferring that Cactus sent the card because she is the only one with prickles. Case closed!
