You’ve made it to the final week of regular classes! 🐺💪📚 Let’s finish strong and show 'em all what we’re capable of! Remember to stay focused, reach out for support if you need it, and take care of yourselves. You've got this! 🎉✨

The Clothing Swap ends today at 3 pm! ⏰

Stop by the Wildenthal Memorial Library with your old clothes to donate or SWAP out the remaining items - before everything is donated to our local thrift shops! Ol’ President Bryan here swapped his fashionable top hat for a Sully Red cowboy hat! 🤠

Last month’s hike with Dr. Maureen Frank was cancelled due to the weather, but we surely enjoyed the beautiful snow and much-needed moisture! ❄️☀️
Now that spring is in full bloom, join us for our next Guided Hike on Hancock Hill—this time with native plants in the spotlight! 🌵🌾 Helen Snook with West Texas Native Seeds will lead us through the Chihuahuan Desert landscape, highlighting native grasses, cacti, forbs, and shrubs in seed, fruit, or flower. A perfect way to connect with the desert’s seasonal magic!

The SRSU Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) hosted their 2nd annual Field Day April 2. @srsu.saac volunteers facilitated sports-themed stations and participated alongside students from @thealpinebucks for a morning of fun and games! This event is sponsored by @srsu.cesa and included approximately 20 SRSU athlete volunteers and 25 students from Alpine schools.
 
“We love to be a growing part of this community and want every chance to pour back into it,” said Assistant Athletic Director Clayton Garcia. “Events like this bring our SAAC students as much joy as it does for the AISD students who participate.”
