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.

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!

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. 💙
