Snyder Intermediate School

The third annual Back to School Bash is scheduled for Saturday, August 1st. This year's bash will look a little different, with convenient drive-through stations! Join us as we team together with SISD ACE and Snyder Community Resource Center to kick start the 20-21 school year!

Are you the parent or legal guardian of a SISD student? Your feedback is incredibly important to us. Please take special notice of the Snyder ISD Parent Survey regarding the At-Home Learning Experience during the COVID-19 pandemic. We had to quickly adapt to a different method of instruction. We learned a lot through this process and are always looking to learn more. This survey should take you less than 5 minutes to complete and will help us learn more about the at-home learning experience. This will also help us prepare for a variety of scenarios for the 2020-2021 school year. This survey will close on June 5, 2020. This an much more can be found in the SISD Weekly Updates Newsletter. https://www.smore.com/m4hz1

Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) is a one-time food benefit for families who lost access to free or reduced-price meals due to school closures. Eligible P-EBT families will receive application instructions from schools in early June. Families who received SNAP benefits for the month of March 2020 and have children 5-18 years old as of May 17, 2020, do not need to apply for those children. These families will receive P-EBT benefits on their current Lone Star Card by May 22. Families with children up to 21 years old who are certified to receive free or reduced-price meals during the 2019-20 school year need to apply for P-EBT. (This includes families who received SNAP benefits for the month of March 2020 and have children under 5 and between 19 and 21.) Your school district will send you a link to an online application by the first week of June. Once HHSC receives the application and verifies your eligibility with the school list, you will receive a Texas P-EBT card in the mail that includes P-EBT funds.

Snyder community and Tiger Fans, let's support our Seniors! Line the streets and cheer on our seniors as they parade through the park on their way to graduation! The graduation ceremony will be broadcast at 8 pm on SISD Youtube & Facebook channels. At the end of the parade route, graduates and their allotted guests will enter the south gate of Tiger Stadium where the graduate will walk the stage. Due to restraints from the Governor and TEA, only ticketed guests will be allowed to accompany the graduate to Tiger Stadium. However, the events will be broadcast at 8 pm on SISD Youtube & Facebook channels.

Good morning Snyder Intermediate! We have an announcement for you from Principal Katy Cade. We will be collecting the iPads that were issued for distance learning on Monday, May 18th. iPads and chargers must be returned to avoid fees for parents. Please note the following times: 4th Grade 9:00am-12:30pm 5th Grade 12:30pm-4:00pm Parents will enter the drive-through on El Paso and stay in their vehicles. Staff members will collect the iPad AND charger from parents and return student personal items the teacher may have collected from the classroom. We have split the times between 4th and 5th grade to help reduce traffic congestion. If your student has medicine with the nurse, please let the staff know so that we can return it to you at this time.

Class of 2020! During today’s press conference, Governor Abbott and TEA Commissioner Mike Morath announced guidelines for High School graduation. Snyder ISD is moving forward with plans to hold graduation outdoors at the Snyder High School football field on Friday, May 22, 2020, at 8.p.m. A graduation parade will be held beforehand. There will be assigned seating to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and families. We are working out the logistics of both events and will release more details by the end of this week.
