Hello Herd!
As you are well aware, April 8th will be the day of the solar eclipse. We are planning to have school and participate in the eclipse. We have been teaching lessons and we have purchased glasses for all the students and staff. There is an "opt-out" form coming home if you do not want your child outside watching the eclipse. Each campus will take those students to the cafeteria with supervision.
With yesterday's announcement from TISD about their closure, we are going to give another option to our families as well. If you are concerned about the safety of your child, on April 8th, or you want to experience the eclipse with your child, the district has an option for you to check your child out of school after 10 am and attendance will not count against them. We would like them here in the morning to count towards our state funding but also want to work with our families. We believe we have a safe plan but understand if you are concerned. If you are interested in this option, please contact your campus so that they can plan accordingly. We will be able to create a list at each campus and expedite the process.
If you come to collect your child on Monday, we hope you enjoy your time with them. If you choose to leave them here to experience the eclipse with us, please know they are safe. Take care and have a blessed Spring Break.
If you are interested in being on the dance team NEXTyear(5th-8th grades), There is a mandatory parent meeting on April 9.

At Red Lick Elementary, we love getting to extend our learning beyond the typical academic areas. Last night, our campus showcased our Student Enrichment Model (SEM). Our students have the opportunity to choose a topic to explore each semester and create projects to demonstrate their learning. Thank you to our volunteers and teachers who make this possible. Learning is fun with @theherd.
✨Our Mustang families enjoyed an evening under the twinkling stars at our Daddy Daughter Dance: Starry Starry Night! ✨ It was a night filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories as fathers and daughters danced the night away. 💫 #DaddyDaughterDance #StarryStarryNight ✨👨👧💃

This past Saturday, a team of 4 students competed in the Texas Region 2 State Championships for VEX Robotics at Miller Grove Middle School. As this is our first year to compete in VEX, we were elated just to get the invitation to compete.
At the competition, we ran into several difficulties leading us to not do as well in the tournament bracket as we would have liked, but our kids kept smiles on their faces, good sportsmanship, and a humble attitude. During the interview process, they communicated their challenges and how they were correcting the issues. This interview, coupled with their attitudes throughout the day, earned them the 2024 Texas Region 2 Middle School Championship Judges Award.
The team, known as the Micro Mustangs, consisted of Ian Williams, Atticus Aslin, Lilyann Dyer, and J.L. Gonzales. These kids represented what it means to be a Mustang, and I am super proud of them!
Parents of 4th graders that are going to the middle school next year, listen up! #theHerd

Red Lick ISD wanted to let our community know that Sandy Morgan passed away earlier this week. Sandy was a special woman who gave so much of herself to this district. Her sister told us that Sandy didn't want a service, visitation, or flowers and that sounds just like her. She also said, "Sandy loved being on the school board and couldn't bring herself to resign . She started an email several times but just couldn't send it. She just wants to be remembered as she was in good health." Sandy's joyous positive attitude will be missed. #theHerd
There was lots of excitement as we welcomed our newest Mustangs to campus during Kindergarten Round Up! We saw some familiar faces and met some new families! Great things are happening at Red Lick Elementary. Come join #theherd and see what it’s all about. 💙
