Flexible Seating = Focused Learning! 🎉📚
Mrs. Reeves, a dedicated Northside Primary teacher, is giving her students more ways to learn, thanks to a generous grant from the Palestine Education Foundation! With alternative seating options, students can choose the learning space that helps them stay engaged, comfortable, and ready to succeed.
And the students love it! 🪑✨ “We like the chairs because we can put our things under our seat and still move and swivel around while we work!” – Northside students
From wobble stools to cozy floor seats, these new options promote focus, movement, and independence—helping young learners thrive in the classroom. Thank you to the Palestine Education Foundation for supporting innovation in our schools! ❤️🐾

Happy Presidents Day, everyone! Today we celebrate the inspiring leadership of America’s presidents—from George Washington and Abraham Lincoln to those who have followed in their footsteps. Originally established to honor George Washington’s birthday, this day has evolved into a time to reflect on the legacy and vision of all our nation’s leaders. Whether you’re taking a well-deserved break or reflecting on history, let’s appreciate the guiding principles that have shaped our country. Enjoy the day and celebrate the spirit of leadership! 💙🤍♥️

He went on to play at Sam Houston State University on a football scholarship, and was later recruited by the Cowboys and the 49ers. He has coached kids to adults from the community center level to high school, college, and semi-pro. Needless to say, he has left a mark on the sport and the world!! #myblackhistory
