I'm giving a Staff Shout-out to Angel Sidhu. She wears many hats for Petersburg ISD as the ESL coordinator, Dyslexia Specialist, and now as our Testing coordinator.
In January, Mrs. Sidhu organized and hosted our EL Family Night. Even though numbers were small, it was a successful event that will continue to grow each year.
Mrs. Sidhu organizes and keeps up with our students who have dyslexia by providing support to the students and training for the staff.
Mrs. Sidhu is a tremendous asset to Buffalo Nation! ~ Mrs. Carnagey

I know so much of your work is unseen, but you are helping our kids succeed and I am extremely thankful! You, Go, Girl! I love working alongside you!

⚫️🟡 Buffalo Shout Out ⚫️🟡
Petersburg Buffaloes represent The Buffalo Way inside and outside of school. Today's Shout Out goes to seventh grader, Brecken Rasco!
Brecken is one class act. You will find him being a great example of what a true Buffalo portrays anytime of the day. He is well mannered, respectful, hard working, and honest. His character precedes him everywhere he goes.
Classmate, Demetrius Mendez needed help with his tie the night before the Junior High UIL meet. Brecken was able to assist him at youth that night and help teach him how to tie his tie. Thank you, Brecken, for being a great friend!
Way to go, Brecken!
We are proud of you!
