The Family Engagement Advisory Committee will meet twice a year to revise the Parent and Family Engagement Policy which includes annual evaluation of all PFE programs. The PFE Policy will be distributed and explained to parents/families during the Fall Title I Meetings and campus events. Parents and Families can become a part of the Family Engagement Committee by contacting their campus Parent Liaison. The Family Engagement Advisory Committee is integral to creating the best partnership between families and the district. The committee input is a valued source used to create and implement the policy used by the district which is distributed at every campus and district office.

Each of the SSAISD parent liaisons are both members of their assigned school community as well as parents of the district. This gives them the unique privilege of relating to the parents and can more easily meet their needs.

The Parent Liaison can assist families in a variety of ways, from relaying information between the school and the home to helping families complete the application for benefits such as SNAP, Medicaid and Medicare.

South San Antonio ISD would like to highlight the following Parent Liaisons for their tireless dedication to our district, schools, students and their families.

Thank you to U.S Congressman Joaquin Castro for visiting Hutchins Elementary School and touring our Pre-Kinder classes! We appreciate you advocating for our district and emphasizing the importance of education at SSAISD!

Congratulations to Mrs. Ramirez, Neil Armstrong Elementary School Principal, for receiving the Texas Music Educators Distinguished Administrator Award! Thank you for preserving quality music education programs here at SSAISD!

You may have heard of a grant and opportunities at Armstrong Elementary provided by CULTIVAR: Communities Uplifting Learners Through Imagination and Vibrant Artistic Reflections. CULTIVAR is a five year grant that partners with Texas A&M San Antonio and the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts and is currently in year three. With these partnerships, teachers and administrators take part in integrating arts-based and culturally responsive education throughout the school. This program focuses on providing arts based instructional materials, presenting professional development for South San educators, and creating a community for South San parents to participate in art experiences. South San Antonio ISD is pleased to branch this program out to select educators at the other 7 elementary schools in the district.

Happy Board Appreciation Month! Thank you for all that you do at SSAISD and encouraging community and parent participation in the education of district children. We appreciate you!

The San Antonio Stockshow and Rodeo reuse the same dirt every year. It was purchased near Charolotte, TX in 1988. If the dirt wasn’t recycled it would cost nearly $25,000 to purchase new dirt every year. The dirt is stored on a back lot on the grounds of the AT&T Center and it is cleaned and refined before it’s used again.
