After every grading cycle we celebrate our student successes during our Awards Assemblies!  Our Sewell Seahawks are recognized for A-Honor Roll, A/B-Honor Roll, the Super Seahawk Award, as well as 2-3 academic distinctions.  

During our Awards Assemblies we also celebrate our Principal's 200 Club and names are drawn for prizes!

Each grading cycle the Sewell staff recognizes 200 students for showing their Sewell PRIDE!

P - Politeness

R - Responsibility

I - Integrity

D - Discipline

E - Effort

The PRIDE slips are collected and displayed on our Principal's 200 Club activity board. 

During our Awards Assemblies, the PRIDE slips are gathered and students from each grade level have their names randomly drawn for prizes!  Prizes include the Principal's Pizza Party and tokens for our new book vending machine.

Sewell Elementary is excited to participate in the 2022 National Red Ribbon Week.  This year's theme, Celebrate Life. Live Drug Free.™, is a reminder that, everyday, Americans across the country make significant daily contributions to their communities by being the best they can be because they live Drug-Free!

2021 National Red Ribbon week, October 23 - 31, will be filled with many different lessons designed to engage and educate our students while encouraging their participation in drug prevention activities.  Our school counselor, Ms. Gutierrez, will be visiting all of our Sewell Seahawks with important lessons about drug prevention.

Every year Sewell Seahawks participate in the annual GISD Canned Food Drive.  

Student's making Food Drive Donations!	Ms. Gutierrez!

Here are some helpful tips when donating food items:

• focus on healthy foods such as canned meats, canned vegetables, soup, rice, and pasta.
• avoid high sodium products such as Ramen Noodles
• please no expired food because donation centers have to throw it out

September is officially National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month.  To help combat obesity and promote physical activity, Coach Colwell and Nurse Jackson will have students participate in a walk or bike month!

We are encouraging students to walk or bike for a minimum of 10 minutes per day!  Students are given cards to help them track their progress.

Our wonderful school counselor, Ms. Gutierrez, helps us coordinate our school with GISD College Week.  She takes time to speak to all of our Sewell Seahawks about the importance of being college ready!
