Pre-K studied coconuts and opened ours. They decided that they liked the milk better than the meat! They learned a lot about coconuts! #WeAreEastRidge

Tomorrow (9/29) is Lucky Tray Day in our cafeteria!!

Second graders practiced problem solving skills with Mrs. Angie last week! #WeAreEastRidge

🍂 Save the Date: Sweetwater ISD Fall Break

Students and staff will be out during this time, so we wanted to give families plenty of notice to plan ahead for childcare, travel, appointments, or a little extra time together.

Classes and regular district operations will resume following the break.

Enjoy the time off, Mustangs! ❤️🐴

Save the date! Fall break will be Thursday, October 1-Monday, October 5th. School will resume Tuesday, October 6th.

Just a quick reminder for drop off and pick-up, please make sure any animals riding along are secured. We sure would hate for someone's fur baby to run into the school and get lost!! *Picture of today's offender, Spud, for attention.*
