🌟 Celebrating Our Mavericks! 🌟
Our October School Board Meeting was all about celebrating the people who make Pearsall ISD shine!
We honored our Students of the Month and took a moment to thank our amazing principals in honor of National Principals Month.
✨ October Students of the Month:
TFE - Alayna Pomar
INT - Mason Ramon (Not Pictured)
PJH - Kyler Brown
PHS - Annabelle Perez
Every month, each campus selects one student who stands out for their character, hard work in the classroom, and the positive difference they make on their campus. These students are setting the bar high, and we couldn’t be prouder to call them Mavericks!
🙌🏻 Principal Appreciation:
To our principals: thank you for leading with heart, cheering on every student, and pouring so much into our campuses each day. We see you, and we appreciate you!
Congratulations to all of our honorees! 🤘🏻

🧬 Making Mitosis Come to Life!!! 🧬
In Mrs. Sindon’s Biology class, students got hands-on with cell division today! Using Play-Doh and string, students created models of the stages of mitosis, demonstrating how chromosomes move and separate as a cell prepares to divide.
What a fun and engaging way to bring Biology to life and make learning memorable! 🔬🧪
Thank you, Mrs. Sindon, for all that you do for our students and for creating hands-on learning experiences in your classroom! 💚🤍

🧬🍬 Sweet Science in Biology! 🍬🧬
Our Biology students kicked off their DNA unit with a hands-on (and delicious-looking!) activity! Using gummy bears and licorice, students built their own DNA models to explore the structure of the molecule that carries the instructions for life.
Students discovered how nitrogenous bases pair together to form the rungs of the DNA ladder, while the sugar-phosphate backbone forms its sides. They even explored how DNA twists into its famous double-helix shape!
