In basketball action last night, select, loyal fans trekked up to Overton last night to watch the Boxers win 37 to 31 in the boys game and 37 to 3 in the girls game against Lyon MS.  Our next game will be a home game this Tuesday versus Molasky.  We hope that EVERYONE can make it out to witness the domination of Esco basketball.

Wow! We are really playing as a team! It’s amazing to see all the kind acts you are catching each other doing. Be sure to see your English teacher or Ms. Baca when you “catch” someone being kind. By the way, I’m wide open! Throw it to me! Throw a compliment that is! In honor of our Kindness Kickoff, try to give 5 compliments today! One could be on our Kind Words Wall at lunch. Be watching for kindness in those around you!

He’s going for it! Yes! Interception! An Escobedo student just intercepted an insult. He stood up and told a bully he wasn’t being kind. You can do it, too. Don’t let the bullies complete their play; intercept them in the act! If you see someone being unkind today, remind them how they should act. You can Make a Difference!
