Beneke Blast

Dear Beneke Families,

Dear Parents and Guardians,

This is a friendly reminder that all 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students are invited to attend Saturday School tomorrow from 8:30 a.m. to 11:55 a.m.

Students will be provided with both breakfast and lunch during their time on campus.

With only two weeks remaining until STAAR testing begins, every day of learning is important. Saturday School is a great opportunity for students to strengthen their skills, build confidence, and stay on track for success.

Attendance is extremely important during this time. Please ensure your child is present at school every day and takes full advantage of all instructional opportunities.

We strongly encourage your child to attend and take advantage of this additional instructional time.

Thank you for your continued support in helping our students succeed!

Sincerely,

Principal Smith

Dear Spring ISD Family,

Looking to celebrate a Spring ISD employee? Now’s your chance! You can nominate anyone serving in the district—be it a teacher, custodian, secretary, clerk, mechanic, bus driver, librarian, nurse, or counselor—for the Employee Excellence Award and honor their outstanding contributions.

Awarded by the Spring ISD Board of Trustees, this recognition honors employees who exemplify the district’s guiding principles, core values, and embody the attributes outlined in our Leadership Definition. Each month during the school year, one employee is selected, and from these honorees, a grand prize winner will be announced at the Spring ISD Employee Recognition Banquet in May. The only employees not eligible for this award are Senior Leadership Team members and members of the Board of Trustees.

We’re looking for employees who are bringing the Spring ISD mission to life and helping us reach each and every Spring ISD student. To nominate them for the Spring ISD Board of Trustees Employee Excellence Award, complete the online recognition nomination form.

A successful nomination will include as much detail as possible to describe why the person should be considered for an award. For more information, click here.

Honored Schools Launches January 12!
We’re excited to share that our school is partnering with Honored Schools, a program that celebrates the incredible teachers who make a difference every day. Beginning January 12, 2026, students and families can visit HonoredSchools.org to share a story about a teacher who has impacted their life.

Each “Honor Story” will be shared directly with the teacher and featured on Honored’s national Honor Roll. At the end of the year, 2-6 teachers in our region will receive the Honored Schools Life-Changing Teacher Award, which includes a $2,500 prize.

Keep an eye out for flyers coming home next week—and thank you for helping us spread the warmth this winter by recognizing our amazing educators!

¡El programa Honored Schools se lanza el 12 de enero!
Nos complace compartir que nuestra escuela se ha asociado con Honored Schools, un programa que celebra a los increíbles maestros que marcan la diferencia todos los días. A partir del 12 de enero de 2026, los estudiantes y las familias pueden visitar HonoredSchools.org para compartir la historia de un maestro que ha tenido un impacto positivo en su vida.

Cada “Honor Story” se comparte directamente con el maestro y se publica en el Honor Roll nacional de Honored. Al final del año escolar, uno o más maestros de nuestra región recibirán el Premio Life-Changing Teacher, que incluye $2,500.

Esté atento a los folletos que se enviarán a casa la próxima semana—¡y gracias por ayudarnos a difundir un poco de calidez este invierno reconociendo a nuestros increíbles educadores!

As stated in the Beneke Elementary Handbook, the latest time to check your student out for the day is 2:45 p.m. After this time, we will not release students, as our staff is focused on preparing for dismissal.
