Texas Heritage Event-2nd Grade
Mask Requirement to Stay in Place for All Southside ISD Staff & Students
Southside ISD will continue with masks, social distancing, and all of the safety protocols that we have in place. Nothing has changed for our school district. On March 2, Gov. Greb Abbott announced lifting the mask mandate in Texas in an Executive Order A-34 which addresses the statewide wearing of face coverings (i.e., masks) and takes effect March 10, 2021. TEA’s authority to implement operational requirements for public schools remains in effect (e.g., TEA’s Public Health Guidance).
As a result of the lifting of the order on masks, TEA has updated its Public Health Guidance. Under this updated guidance, a public school system’s current practices on masks may continue unchanged. Local school boards have full authority to determine their local mask policy.
Superintendent Rolando Ramirez says “we will continue with masks, social distancing, and all of the safety protocols that we have in place. Nothing has changed for our school district.”

Heritage among the leaders in AR points!
Since our school district began the Accelerated Reader Program back in October, Heritage has been among the leaders every month. We placed first among the elementary campuses in October with 3,016 points and January with 4,834 points while placing a respectable 2nd in November and December. A key factor is placing on top is that several of our classes have been the top class for their grade level multiple times. We are so proud of all our classes, but especially those listed below.
1st grade: Top class Oct., Nov., Jan.-Montemayor
1st grade: Top class Dec.-Cerda
2nd grade: Top class Oct., Nov., Dec., Jan.-Delgado
3rd grade: Top class Nov., Dec., Jan.-Traeger
