Reading Buddies Begin Another Year of Supporting SBISD Students
SBISD's Reading Buddies are back for another year, bringing community volunteers and second-grade students together to strengthen literacy skills and build meaningful relationships.
Since 2019, Reading Buddies has connected volunteers with students for 30 minutes of reading each week, providing encouragement, consistent support and opportunities to grow as readers.
The program's impact was highlighted in the 2026 Education Scorecard, a research project involving Harvard University, Stanford University and Dartmouth College, which reported:
88% of participating students showed gains in oral reading fluency.
More than 60% of the 340 volunteers counted had served for at least two years.
“We're excited to see so many community members in our schools helping students build their reading skills and showing them that their community cares about their success,” said Christopher Marroquin, Director of Community Engagement.
Thank you to our Reading Buddies for showing up each week, building connections and supporting SBISD's literacy priority and T-2-4 vision for Every Child!
Every school day, our amazing SBISD transportation team helps students feel safe, welcome and ready to learn. 💛🚌 At Wilchester Elementary (WCE), families say Mr. Bene has done just that for at least eight years. He greets students with a smile, learns their names, remembers the details that matter to them and celebrates their birthdays. Along the way, he encourages positive behavior and creates a sense of belonging. To show their appreciation, families on his route pooled their funds and donated to the WCE PTA to name the bus circle in his honor. Students were thrilled, including one fifth grader who said, “Wow, he really deserves it!” Thank you, Mr. Bene, and our entire transportation team for the care and kindness you bring to every route. Your impact reaches far beyond the ride to school. #IAMSBISD

Keeping Every Child safe starts with awareness, education and open conversations.
SBISD Police encourages families to talk with their children about firearm safety, including the importance of never handling a firearm and knowing what to do if they encounter one:
Never touch it.
Leave the area immediately.
Tell a trusted adult.
Take a few minutes to watch this important safety message and continue the conversation at home.
Twenty-five years later, we remember.
Today, we honor the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the bravery of the first responders and everyday heroes who answered the call.
We remember their courage, sacrifice and service, and reflect on the unity and resilience that followed. #NeverForget #PatriotDay #SBISDProud
