About Our School

Serving Grades Pre-K through 4

At our campus, students come ready to learn—and leave with the confidence to lead! We know these early years are the first step in a lifelong journey, and we’re honored to help lay the foundation for their growth and future success.

We’re committed to building a strong, supportive learning environment where students feel safe, valued, and inspired. Our dedicated educators nurture curiosity, spark creativity, and help students begin discovering who they are and what they love.

We also believe in teaching big lessons in simple ways—like how to take responsibility, make good choices, and believe in themselves. Students may not control everything, but they can learn to lead with courage, kindness, and confidence.

Through strong school-family partnerships and meaningful community connections, we’re helping students grow into thoughtful learners and future leaders, ready for the world ahead—one small step at a time. 🍎💡🌈

As a Sippel student, your child will cultivate a love for learning, spark their curiosity, and build a strong foundation for lifelong education while also developing their social and emotional skills. Beyond the classroom, they have the opportunity to explore their interests or discover new passions through a variety of clubs, programs, and organizations.

Depending on your address, your student will progress through 5th and 6th grade at Jordan Intermediate or Schlather Intermediate, at either school they not only build a stronger academic base but also broaden their social circles and experiences.

As their academic foundation expands in the classroom at Dobie Junior High their circle of friends and experiences will grow through athletics, fine arts, UIL contests, National Junior Honors Society, and more.

At Byron P Steele II High School, your child will excel academically and socially while embracing traditions and memories that will last throughout their life. Your child has the freedom and support to pursue their passions in a variety of nationally recognized programs, organizations and clubs from athletics to JROTC, band, dance, photography, UIL and more.
