IT SNOWED IN SAN ANTONIO! It is rare for students and teachers in San Antonio to have school cancelled for a Snow Day! In mid-February, schools were closed for more than one day, as temperatures dropped well below freezing and snow began to fall across Texas! Our Alamo Heights students, staff and families, made the best of the closure, marking the historic event creating moments and making memories!

Snowed in? Alamo Heights ISD found creative ways to encourage reading among students and staff during time away from schools. The district launched a Remote Read In, asking students and teachers to share photos of themselves reading remotely during the coldest and most significant snowfall in decades in the San Antonio area and across Texas. Students and staff alike shared their favorite books, what they were currently reading, and their cozy reading spots while snowed in! Some students shared how their reading of recipes crafted delicious outcomes, while others took reading and applied a little science to discover new knowledge about the snow and ice surrounding us all! 30 MARCH 2021 | 78209magazine.com
