Without further ado, here are the 13 remaining schools I visited in San Antonio last week and the week before.
 
East Terrell Hills, with its mural and loaded with beautiful and fun reading statuettes.... 

At Wilshire Elementary (home base of Ginny Walsh, the unbelievable organizer of this extended visit) ... cushy and colorful.

 

Serna ... where the murals are unbelievably realistic ...



West Avenue,where the world's within reach ...
 

Harmony Hills with the hallways on the other side of the bookcases ... 
 

Wilderness Oak, the type of library that pulls you in ...
 

Castle Hills, always ready for storytime and eager readers.
 

Dellview, Lone Star State, through and through ...
 

El Dorado ... shipshape, including the old card catalogue ...
 

Clear Spring ... bright, spacious, and tropically touched, no matter the weather ...
 

Fox Run, or should we call it "Fox Fun" ...
 

Regency Place, very royal and regal ...
 

Colonial Hills ... just pull up a chair or, as most schools needed to do, push them aside to find floor space for all the wonderful students ...
 

And one more picture ...
While it came from one school, it could have been from any of them.
Thanks, San Antonio North East ISD Schools. I couldn't have felt more welcome!
