Band Practice Clarification:
From August 1st to September 6th, the UIL Music Department is restricting all band programs from teaching the marching drill of their UIL Contest Show. However, all bands can practice the music of their contest show and practice marching fundamentals only. They are also allowed to rehearse a "Pop Show" for football games with simple drill moves that have nothing to do with the UIL Drill. All bands are allowed to begin rehearsing their UIL Show on September 7th. Mr. Idlebird will see you at your scheduled practice time!
Varsity Football will begin practice on August 3rd. This will include all incoming 9th-12th graders. We will practice Monday-Friday from 6pm - 8pm. Make sure you come early Monday in order to have all your equipment squared away and ready! The YEGUAS are ready to roll!! Let’s go!!! #YeguaNation

Yegua athletics will resume Strength and Conditioning Monday July 13
Students, Parents, & Staff,
In an effort to keep our students and staff healthy, Somerville ISD will not host a face to face summer academic camp in July. Instead, we will provide at-home remote instruction that can be accomplished with or without the internet for 1st through 7th grade, and high school students will still be able to regain credit on-line through an online platform called APEX.
If your child was chosen to participate in summer camp you will be receiving more implicit information next week on what to expect for instruction from your campus Principal.
We are currently working on plans to provide every student a device from K-12th grade next school year. If you would like to access free instruction and plans from TEA please click on the link below. https://texashomelearning.org
Be safe and stay healthy,
Karla Sparks
Superintendent
