Sundown ISD

Sundown High School senior Emma Escamilla graduated as a Dual Credit Early High School Graduate from South Plains College this afternoon, with an Associate of Science (A.S.) degree. She completed her degree with a perfect 4.0 GPA, which means she graduated with a medal signifying Highest Honors. She is only the second student at SHS to achieve this amazing honor. Emma managed to do all this while remaining very active at school and participating in numerous extracurricular activities, including UIL Spelling, earning a trip to the State Contest! She will be the Valedictorian of the SHS Class of 2026, and we are proud to call her a Roughneck. Congratulations, Emma!

Food Truck Face-Off: Over the span of two days the culinary classes participated in a Food Truck Face-Off. Each kitchen group chose a recipe, created a company name, designed their food truck and logo, and put out advertisements. Students lined the hall hoping to get a ticket that would allow them to purchase the food of their choice. There were many happy customers! What a fun experience that Mrs. Rodgers put together for all of our students. Can't wait for next year's food trucks!!

Third, fourth and fifth graders spent Tuesday morning learning about opportunities available after they leave SISD. Big thanks you’s go out to the following professionals who made our morning a success! Mrs. Kristin Bingham and Dr. Tori Hall from SPC with the help of Roxie Hall who talked about Science careers. Dr. Allan Camacho from Covenant Family Medicine in Levelland shared about it his career in medicine as a PCP. Mr. Mike Richardson and his welding students presented about welding and building trade careers and the soft skills necessary to be successful.

It was a fun morning with lots of great information! Another huge thanks to all of our presenters, and also to Mrs. Amanda Davis for organizing a great event!
