Check out our Growing Leaders! 👀
"Pyrrhic Victory: Never allow situations to eclipse relationships. Sometimes, the cost of winning is so great that we lose more than we gain. Good self-managers don’t fight every battle. They carefully consider what’s at stake in each encounter with others and then act accordingly. They never allow the situation to become more important than the relationship."
These students were nominated by staff for their ability to take care of the relationships around them. We regularly see them work at maintaining friendships.

Great job leaders, we are so proud of you!

Next week (April 10th-14th) is State Testing for all AISD Schools!
Help your students get prepared for testing by checking out the following tips:
1. Get 9-11 hours of sleep the night before a test.
2. Eat a healthy breakfast in the morning and drink plenty of water!
3. Arrive to school on time.
4. Have a positive attitude and motto, like "I've got this!"
5. Read all the directions and answer choices carefully before you pick the best answer.
6. Cross out and eliminate the answer choices you know are incorrect.
7. Don't get stuck on the more challenging questions. Skip, move on, and return to them at the end.
8. Do a quick and quiet brain break if you notice you are starting to lose focus.
9. Review and check your work after you have answered all of the questions.
10. And ALWAYS remember this: A test cannot measure your worthiness, lovability, kindness, empathy, curiosity, passions, creativity, or courage!

Yesterday, Mrs. Cook's second grade class made a trip to the high school as part of a Science & Literacy place-based unit created by Mrs. Jeannie Lindsey, which is centered around the invasive green crab!
High school student Shannon M. & science teacher Ian Hudson presented facts about the invasive green crab issue. The students were able to get an up-close look at these “invaders” and were very engaged with the learning! 🦀

Just before Spring Break, Brian Hutton (our Artist in Residence) visited AISD! He has spent the week engaging our secondary students on performance quality, creative writing and other theater arts focused themes.
The high school students concentrated on writing and podcasting, and the middle school students worked on a Reader's Theater version of the Lorax in which they presented to the kindergarten. Thank you to Brian and our students for a fun week!
