Jammie Fewell, our principal at Lytle Primary School has been in education for 21 years, and at Lytle ISD for the past 9 years. In the middle of last school year, Ms. Fewell became the principal for our Littlest Pirates' campus. Since October is Principal Appreciation Month, here's your chance to tell Ms. Fewell thank you for her leadership at that campus and for serving our Little Pirates so well. Of course, if you have a positive story or words of encouragement, please share with us all!
On September 26, 2019, Lytle High School Art students participated in the annual Friendship Art Club Competition. All students placed in categories A (Drawing Medium) and B (Mixed Media) with 1 of our students earning the Best of Show Award as well as the People’s Choice Award!
Your Lytle Cross Country team traveled down to Dilley yesterday, October 14th, for their final Meet of the regular season, the District 30-3A Cross Country Meet. Like most sports teams, staying healthy throughout the season is key for one's success. This year we were hit very hard with injuries. We had some that tried to do too much too quick, some that wore equipment that may have caused the problem, some ran through things instead of sitting and some of it was just bad luck. Regardless the reason, we had to compete without 2 of our best runners in both Varsity boys and Varsity girls. I told the runners before we got off the bus that we would find out if we had a program or not, if we were able to fill those spots with JV runners and not lose a beat. I can't say that we are quite just there yet, but we did have some great performances at a time we really needed them.
On Saturday, October 12th, the Pirate Band competed at the UIL Region XI Marching Contest in Hondo. The hard work the band students have put in through the heat since August paid off as they were one of only two 3A bands in our region to earn a 1st Division and qualify to advance to Area on October 26th in Beeville.
Last Friday, October 11, the Varsity girls BEAT Laredo Harmony in 3 games.
