Join us in celebrating the talented McCollum High School Art Club for their work in creating a stunning mural for the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo fairgrounds. As one of only five schools in San Antonio selected for this opportunity, their creativity and hard work truly stand out when looking at their mural. Under the guidance of Mr. Eduardo De La Cruz, Mr. Edward Escobedo and Mr. Eric Schorp, this masterpiece will be displayed there for the next six years!
Congratulations to our artists: Alejandro Martinez, Fatima Abonce, Obidiah Obaya, Antonio Salazar, Cerise Rodriguez, Belen Briseno, Gabrielle Ramos, and Nicole Garcia for bringing this vision to life.

Let’s play a fun trivia game! Here are 10 fun Holiday movie quotes. Let’s see if you can guess which movie they came from:
1. “We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup.”
2. “There’s a certain magic that comes with the very first snow. For when the first snow is also a Christmas snow, well, something wonderful is bound to happen.”
3. “Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?”
4. “Every time a bell rings, an angel gets his wings.”
5. “What if Christmasʺ he thought, ʺdoesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas…perhaps…means a little bit more!”
Write your guesses in the comments below and let’s see who get’s them all correct, and Googling is not allowed!


Vestal Elementary's 'Christmas Around the World Literacy Night' truly brought the holiday spirit to life! Students and families explored how different countries celebrate the holidays through fun activities, festive snacks and engaging facts.
