Smith Elementary teachers are hard at work to build turkey dinner boxes for 50 families! Teamwork makes the dream work! We are thankful for our sponsors, @Whataburger , @HEB , and Fabian’s Construction, for helping us complete our mission to serve our @SAISD families.

HEB comes in clutch early in the morning either with help loading up our trucks or delivering to Cotton Academy. Thank you @HEB Gilbert, Homer, and Josh for going the extra mile for our families!

Our @SAISD Smith Elementary team distributed 50 turkey dinners to Smith families. This was all possible due to contributions from donors like @Whataburger Feeding Student Success. Thank you for believing in our cause and investing in our families.

Math twins! We decided to shake up our groups today by finding a partner with the same (similar) colored pants/shorts.

What a great week!Through the generosity of donors we raised $900 this week. We are on our way to our goal of 200 turkey dinners for our SAISD families.If you would like to contribute visit our site secure.smore.com/n/1xvgy @SAISD @SAISDFoundation @DrJaimeAquino @SAISDCottonAcad

Took a moment to step back and admire 100% student discussion on today’s math concept. Students passionately defending their work, providing feedback to their classmates’ work and clarifying their own misconceptions. @SAISDCottonAcad @SAISD #thisiscotton
