Senior Warriors

 

We are the Santa Fe Indians with school pride and history running deep, we wanted to name this group something honorable. This is how our Senior Warrior program came into existence.  

Our Community, Our Legacy, Our Future! This motto embodies what Santa Fe ISD stands for. In this district, we strive to make sure that every decision we make is centered around each word in our motto. As the 2022-2023 school year came to an end, the SFISD Communications Department was focused on the “Our Community” piece and realized that there was a group of individuals who were being “missed”, the senior citizens of Santa Fe. This group of people does not always have a reason to be connected to the school district, so they wanted to give them a reason to be connected! Jenny Davenport, SFISD Assistant Superintendent, and Stephanie Lyssy, SFISD Communications Specialist, put their heads together and their purpose and vision came to fruition very quickly! They wanted to ensure that the senior citizens could see and hear about the wonderful things our students and staff are doing.

We are the Santa Fe Indians and with school pride and history running deep, Mrs. Davenport and Mrs. Lyssy wanted to name this group something honorable. This is how our Senior Warrior program came into existence.

This group continues to grow as more and more senior citizens spread the word about this unique opportunity to gain insight into the District and interact with the students of this generation.
