One of our favorite events of the year is the Retired Teachers Luncheon—an opportunity to celebrate and honor individuals who have dedicated their lives to education. Guests received a warm welcome and were treated to a special performance by the SHS Pride of the West Band. They enjoyed a delicious meal prepared by the SFE Food Services catering crew and were served by the SHS Student Council and NHS members. The SHS Floral Design classes created beautiful centerpieces and a special take-home arrangement for each guest, adding an extra touch to this meaningful gathering.
It’s always a wonderful time to reconnect, reminisce, and show appreciation for these incredible educators. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event memorable!

Snyder ISD is now accepting referrals for students who may need Gifted/Talented Services for the school year. This program is designed for students who exhibit intellectual and creative thinking abilities at an extraordinary level not normally served in the regular classroom. Services are provided only upon identification of education needs of the student. Anyone wishing to refer a student attending Snyder ISD in kindergarten through twelfth grade this school year is asked to visit or go by the student’s campus office to request a copy of the referral form.
This form must be returned to the school by December 2, 2024. Those unable to go by the school should call the campus to request a form be sent to them.
Reminder!

First match down for JH tennis! 🎾 This is a great group of student athletes, and we are so excited to watch them grow this year!
Mr. Chavez and Coach Whiddon's 7th Grade Science students at Snyder Junior High recently completed the 100 Board Challenge, a fast-paced competitive review activity to prepare for their Unit 3 Test. As part of the engaging review game, students worked in pairs to answer questions cut up into strands on elements and compounds, physical and chemical changes, aqueous solutions, and the rate of dissolution. Students took one strand, answered the question with their partner on a whiteboard, and were able to put their initials on a spot on the 100 Board projected to the whiteboard if they got the question correct. At the end of the review, a random number generator was used to pick a winning pair, and those students earned a prize of their choice to celebrate.

Today marked another productive day at Snyder ISD. Participants in monthly instructional rounds enjoyed seeing the great things our classroom teachers are accomplishing firsthand! The group at Snyder Primary visited over 20 classrooms, while other teams observed classrooms at both the Intermediate and Junior High Schools. Superintendent Rauch, Trustee Leatherwood, and members of the Cabinet also participated in rounds.
The instructional rounds process, modeled after the medical rounds approach, aims to foster collaboration and professional growth among educators across Snyder ISD. By observing classroom instruction and learning from one another, participants gather insights that help identify trends and guide instructional support. It also allows administrative staff, trustees, and others to see how their work impacts campus staff and students. These rounds are held monthly and contribute to improving student outcomes district-wide.
Snyder ISD teachers demonstrated their dedication to providing quality instruction, and we believe their efforts will greatly benefit students! Keep up the GREAT work!
✨magic in learning, excellence in achieving✨

This weekend, several volunteers from Evergreen - SISD Research and Retail Greenhouse and the Snyder Intermediate School STEAM Team participated in the Keep Snyder Beautiful Fall Sweep cleanup. Evergreen replanted all the pots around the square and at City Hall with fall foliage, while the STEAM Team helped clean up the pocket park and paint around the square. We appreciate the work that all of the volunteers put in to spruce up our community!
Tuesday was junior high night at the Lady Tiger Volleyball game. We can't wait to see what the future holds for these talented student-athletes!

This afternoon, Snyder Junior High Administration received information about a threat from a student (not associated with Monday’s incident). Students were discussing yesterday’s events, and a student allegedly made a threatening statement. Police responded immediately. The student was searched, and no weapons were found. After questioning, no intent to harm students was discovered. All students are safe, and the issue has been addressed.
We ask all parents and guardians to remind their children that comments which may seem like harmless jokes, sarcastic remarks, or statements made out of frustration can trigger serious responses from school officials and law enforcement. Such comments can lead to disciplinary action and even criminal charges.
In light of recent events nationwide, both the district and law enforcement maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward threats or any joking about violence. It’s important to have a conversation with your children about the seriousness of making remarks related to violence at school and the potential consequences of such behavior.
We are grateful to the student(s) who brought this concern to our attention. If you see or hear anything suspicious or dangerous, please report it immediately to the school administration or contact 911. For non-urgent concerns, you can submit a report using the “See Something, Say Something” form available at www.snyderisd.net/safety. Together, we can continue to foster a safe and supportive learning environment while helping our students grow into responsible future leaders.
UPDATE: 9/10/24, 6:35 AM
Overnight developments brought to the attention of school administration concerning messages shared on TikTok warranted immediate response and additional investigation. This led to a response from the Snyder Police Department and contact with the parent/guardian and student involved.
While we cannot prevent us from discussing the discipline of specific individuals, we want to assure our community that any student found responsible for making threats of violence will face serious consequences in accordance with district policy and applicable law.
Safety remains our top priority, and we will continue to work with law enforcement and take all necessary measures to protect our students and staff. Again, we appreciate the collaboration from our community in reporting any suspicious or concerning behavior. If you witness or hear about suspicious or dangerous behavior, please report it immediately to school administration or call 911. For non-urgent concerns, you can also submit a report using the “See Something, Say Something” form available at www.snyderisd.net/safety. ORIGINAL POST: Snyder Junior High School administration was alerted to information circulating that a student intended to bring a weapon to the junior high campus. In response, campus administrators, the school counselor, and the Snyder Police Department immediately launched a thorough investigation. After careful review, it was determined that this was not a credible threat. Per our request, there will be an increased police presence on the junior high campus tomorrow as an additional precaution.
Ensuring the safety of our school community is a shared responsibility. We rely on students, staff, and families to report any potential threats or concerns to the appropriate authorities. We are grateful for the individuals who took swift action by notifying us, which allowed us to promptly address the situation.
If you witness or hear about suspicious or dangerous behavior, please report it immediately to school administration or call 911. For non-urgent concerns, you can also submit a report using the “See Something, Say Something” form available at www.snyderisd.net/safety. Please report any information related to weapons, threats, fights, drugs, self-harm, suicide, harassment, bullying, or any other concerning behavior, whether shared in person or online.
Last week, Snyder Independent School District National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) and Advanced Culinary Arts students represented us well (by waiting tables and working in the kitchen) at the Snyder Lions Club 100th Anniversary event.
