The Luling ISD Board of Trustees recognized the November Spotlight Staff Member and Students tonight. Staff member CiCi Keilman and students Jayden Hernandez and Ronderick Hughey (EJ) were present and able to hear how much we appreciate them!
Next week is national Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week. Luling ISD will participate in a food and hygiene drive in recognition of this important week.
Please send nonperishable food and hygiene items with your child next Monday through Friday. The class with the most items from each campus will win a pizza party!
During the month of November, Shanklin Elementary students are learning about types of bullying, what to do if you are being bullied, how to be a superhero bystander and how to help those who are being bullied. They are also learning about what it means to be a good friend. This is their first lesson and activity for the 2020-2021 school year to earn the No Place for Hate designation.
Students at Shanklin Elementary are participating in a poster contest to honor and remember veterans on Veterans Day. We want to thank all of our veterans for their service and commitment to our country.

Shanklin Elementary is having the annual Veteran's Day Program on November 11th at 10am in the High School Gym. Due to occupancy restrictions, we are only allowed to have the honored Veterans and the families of the students that will be participating in the program attend in-person. If your child is participating a note was sent home on Friday. All other interested families can watch the program online - a link will be posted to the website. Shanklin students will watch the program live, in their classrooms.
HUGE thank you to the Luling Lions Club for a VERY generous donation to the district. These funds will be used to help students in need. Thank you Lions Club and Perla Castro for advocating for our students!
During the school year, each campus at Luling ISD will be working on No Place for Hate activities.

The November Spotlight Student of the Month for JH/HS is Jayden Hernandez!
Jayden constantly helps other students in each of his classes and goes above and beyond in classroom participation. Jayden tells everyone good morning/good afternoon as he passes them in the hallway, and is a joy to be around. Great job representing the Luling Eagles, Jayden!

Ronderick is a first grader in Ms. Rodger's class. EJ has a positive attitude in class, is always kind and respectful, and works very hard in all subjects! He is also incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about music composers and geography!
Way to go EJ!
