 Fort Worth ISD Students Establish Text Messaging Study Group 

A group of Fort Worth ISD students at one middle school has established a “study chain” via text messaging in the wake of the District’s closure due to the H1N1-Influenza A. 

Michael Sanderson, a science teacher at M. L. Kirkpatrick Middle School, wanted people to know that “our students are not just treating this as a holiday.” 

According to Sanderson, 8th graders have set up a study chain via text messaging to make sure they are ready when they finally get to take the Science TAKS.  

“I was up until midnight last night answering questions for them, and was back on about 10 this morning,” Sanderson reports.  “They are actually upset they cannot be at school.” 

The teacher credits the great campus climate established by Kirkpatrick’s leadership.
