"Love Your Brain Week" ended a week of dressing up with some great staff costumes.

Mr. Coyle and students dress up as the emotion "angry," but they really are more "joy."

AISD district personnel came to visit Webb, and we got to showcase some of the amazing things happening on our campus.

Ms. Edgell's class got to break open a candy-filled pinata as part of that class's reward. What a sweet treat!

There were lots of screams coming from our haunted house. I would call that a scary success.

Books about ghosts brings forth the spirit of Halloween in our library.

It was an amazing turn-out for our first 9-weeks award assembly for Straight A's, Honor Roll, and Perfect Attendance. Over 100 awards were given out. We are so proud of our scholars.

Humanities and STEM teams are tracking their progress throughout the year.

It may have been a short week, but classes had some big lessons.

Congratulations to Joseph G, Leo M., and Angel M. for their outstanding achievement in being named All-District for the 2024-2025 school year! This remarkable honor is a testament to their hard work, dedication, and exceptional talent. In addition to his All-District recognition, Angel Maldonado also qualified to advance and proudly represent Webb Middle School for the Region auditions in just two weeks at Covington Middle School.

The boys' soccer team and girls' volleyball team have been practicing hard to get ready for their games. We hope to see you out there cheering them on. Basketball will be playing Marshal on Thursday and Soccer will be playing Marshal on Saturday.

We wish many blessings to those special people in our lives who now rest in peace.
