The Holidays came early for some well-deserving teachers and students in Anna ISD. The Anna Education Foundation awarded more than $30,000 worth of grants to 20 teachers across the district at the end of November. The program is called ‘Grants for Great Ideas’.  

In a heartening collaboration that spanned across generations and classrooms, Slayter Creek Middle School's Makerspace classes teamed up with Bryant and Rosamond-Sherley kindergarten classes for a unique and imaginative project just two months ago. The project revolved around the letter "M," a pivotal point of learning for the kindergarteners, who embarked on a journey of creativity and expression.

Anna ISD is now recognized as a Best Buddies school district with an active student group.  Best Buddies programs empower the special abilities of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities by helping them form meaningful friendships with their peers, secure successful jobs, live independently, improve public speaking, self-advocacy, and communication skills, and feel valued by society.

The Anna Student Advisory Council has been making waves by spearheading initiatives that have profoundly impacted Anna High School and its community. Comprising a diverse group of students, this council has shown how the youth can drive positive change in their educational environment.
