A note from Ms. Barrientes:
It's National Library Week and Driscoll will be celebrating with dress up days. Students who dress up and visit the library can get a piece of candy. There will also be another AR challenge for April. See you in the Library!
Students in Ms. Nesmith's 7th grade class participated in a Think and Throw activity to review SCRs in preparation for STAAR. Students read a text and then wrote a response using the A.C.E strategy. Once the timer was up, students gathered in a circle, crumbled their paper into a ball and tossed it into the center. Students did this a couple of times to give the papers a good mix. Students read and evaluated their peers writing using a scoring rubric and then repeated the process a second time. Students then explained their reasoning for the scores by providing evidence from the writing. #destinedforgreatness #rangerpride #ccisdproud
This week we also celebrated Ms. Barrientes for National Librarian Day! Thank you for all you do for our Rangers!

A note from Ms. Pumuula Good afternoon! Driscoll MS made history in the orchestra realm. We are the first group to go to the Orchestra UIL Concert and Sight-reading contest at least since 2007 (and even then, Driscoll combined with Miller Metro). The students did amazing! A HUGE shout-out to Mr. Collins for riding the bus with us, and Mr. Jones and Ms. Gonzalez for coming out to Veterans Memorial High School to support us and watch our performance. I couldn't have done it without y'all's support. ❤️ Attached are pictures of us warming up on stage in the cafeteria before we left, in the warmup room, on stage, and all together in the front of Veterans. We received a division 2 in the concert and a division 3 in the sightreading contest. I am very proud of these kiddos!!!
A note from Mr. Camacho: Thanks to everybody that came to help us Celebrate World Down Syndrome Awareness Day! Specifically, the PTA for helping to provide items for our kiddos and our Librarian for always doing something special for our kiddos. We truly appreciate you both.
⭐️Celebrating School Social Work Week! 🎉Let's applaud the inspiring leaders on our campus: Ms. Tamayo and Mr. Hayes —our school social workers!
