A "Pawsitive" Look at Last Week
From Page to Stage
After their AP ELA classes got a chance to read the novel A Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds, they created plays to act it out themselves. Then they got to go to the Paramount Theater to see the play, Look Both Ways, based on another book from Jason Reynolds. We love some readers' theater and the AISD Creative Learning Initiative. ENCORE!
Volunteer of the Year
Congratulations to Ms. Rios Cerritos, who is the recipient of Austin ISD’s Latino Parent Volunteer Award. Thank you for your dedication to Webb Middle School. You are amazing!
The Latino Academic Achievement Awards are being held Wednesday, April 16th from 6:30-8:30pm at the AISD Performing Arts Center (1500 Barbara Jordan Blvd). Some of students will also be recognized that night so all are welcome to attend.
Test Prep and Tributes
Mr. Pecina's 6th and 7th grade classes made signs in recognition of Cesar Chavez and Delores Huerta Day... and the 8th grade students are hard at work preparing for their AP exam by practicing their recordings.
It's in our DNA
Ms. Esquibel's science classes love learning with hands-on project including creating double helixes, discussing gases (no, not those kinds), and work with plants in our garden. It's a great way to showcase that science is everywhere!
It's Almost Time...
April 9th is our ELA STAAR tests and the teachers and students did an amazing job of giving and getting some last minute support before the big day. We know everyone will do great and hit their progress goals!
Friday Friends
After lots of intervention time, the students got a chance to be with their friends for some free friend time. It was very well-deserved.
Fine Arts & Entertainment
Burgers for the Best Band
Our "Superior" Varsity Band were rewarded with a "make your own" Whataburger for their amazing performance at this year's UIL competition.
Wildcats' Sports News
Tennis Team Beats Two Teams
Congratulations to our Tennis team for continuing their winning-streak against Covington and Dobie this week.

Save Texas Schools Rally at the Capitol, Saturday, April 5, 11 am - 1pm: Join thousands of people from around the state of Texas to rally for the state legislature to increase funding for public schools! Since 2019, Texas schools have lost $1,300 per student in funding (due to inflation) with no increases from the state, leading to schools closing and programs being cut. Let’s tell Texas leaders to INVEST IN TEXAS SCHOOLCHILDREN! savetxschools.org
