Celebrity Couple from North Pole Surprise Students
(San Antonio, TX) – Santa came for a return visit to say hello to all the good boys and girls of Southside this week. But, this time he had a surprise partner, Mrs. Claus! Mrs. Claus joined her partner for a tour around the district visiting every elementary and Menchaca Early Childhood Center during the last week of school before winter break. All PreK3 and Prek4 students got a gift bag along with all 1st and 2nd graders here at Cardinal Nation. They were greeted with smiling faces and happy laughter. You could also hear a student sneaking in a wish or two while they got their picture taken with the celebrity couple. For a video on the fun event click the link.

More than 3100 people from all over the area came to break bread and enjoy some turkey with all the trimmings. The event also featured a stunning display of talent from hundreds of Southside ISD student performers.
