STEM STARTS EARLY

听starts in听pre-K 4! In the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区, every elementary school has two STEM labs that help open up students to outstanding opportunities.

Lots of 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 elementary students will have new playgrounds waiting for them when they return to school in August! New playgrounds at the 17 schools in phase one are either complete or will wrap up soon.

Thanks to the support of the Arlington community, the 2019 Bond is funding two new playgrounds for all 55 district elementary schools, one for pre-K through first grade, and the other for second through sixth grade. The 55 schools are divided into three construction phases. The playgrounds include shade structures, accessible play equipment and rubber surfaces. While the equipment is standard from campus to campus, schools get to make their own color selections.

At Bebensee Elementary, the new playgrounds opened in April, so students got to enjoy them for a few weeks before school let out for the summer in May.

鈥淭he new playground at Bebensee has been a breath of fresh air for our students, staff and the families in our community,鈥� Bebensee Principal Charlotte Carter said. 鈥淲e are all so excited about the variety of state-of-the-art 鈥榣earning thru play鈥� themes that challenge our students. There's a music center with miniature drums and other instruments, several climbing walls and a variety of large and small motor skills stations. Plus, it's built with all of our students in mind. We love it!"

Elementary schools with completed playgrounds include Pearcy STEM Academy, , , , , , , and .

The new playgrounds at Anderson, Wood, Duff, Crouch, Ellis, Larson and Remynse are nearing completion and should wrap up in July. All have their playground equipment installed and now need the surfacing to be finished. Corey Academy, the final school in phase one, kicked off last week with demolition of the old playground equipment. Equipment will be installed in July and the project will be completed in August.

Phase two of new playground construction will start in August and includes the following schools: Blanton, Burgin, Butler, Crow, Ditto, Dunn, Farrell, Fitzgerald, Hill, Kooken, Morton, Patrick, Rankin, Sherrod and Wimbish.

All summer

School may be out for the summer, but听students听who attend听色窝窝无码一区二区三区鈥檚听Agriculture Science Center听have their hands full听year-round.听And even without classes, every day is still busy.听That鈥檚 because they have steers, lambs, goats, chickens, heifers, rabbits and more to take care of.听Dedicated to the听health听and cleanliness of all听the听animals听housed at the Ag Center,听some students start their day at 6:30 a.m.听and don鈥檛 conclude their day until 9:00 p.m.!听听

The Agriculture Science Center opened in October 2017听to听serve听high school students听with an interest听in听animals and agriculture.听Funded by the 2014 Bond, the facility makes ag education and raising an animal accessible to all听high school听students. Prior to 2017, ag students had to find their own听accommodations听for animals, which could be expensive and out of reach for many.听Now that the Ag Center is open, students have a free place to house their animals.听听

The process of raising an animal is an听education in itself. It starts when a听student听purchases听the听animal.听They听then听raise听and train听the animal听as their own听at the Ag Center,听and then finally听they听auction听the animal听off听for consumption听to the highest bidder.听

[embed]https://youtu.be/1xBd_-IovVI[/embed]

How do students pay for this?听

Purchasing an animal can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars.听To procure an animal most students try to attain a scholarship听through competing in stock shows.听Students compete in听stock shows听in Houston, Fort Worth, San Antonio and San Angelo听in what is called a 鈥渃alf scramble.鈥� This is where a group of students chase around a group of calves听in a show arena and try听to put听a halter听around the calf and drag it听to the middle of the arena. If the student is successful, they win a scholarship that can total up to $1,500听and听must go toward the animal.听This helps with purchasing supplements, feed, bedding, hair care,听etc. If a听market听animal does well at show they听can听be auctioned off and听the听student can earn up to $200,000.听It seems simple,听but the time and dedication听the student gives听are听what determine the animal's success.听

Durr听jokingly听admits听he鈥檚 a little jealous of the progress听of听the program听and the facility听and听wishes听he had it as听a听student. But he is also proud听of how far it has come.听A perk to his position is that听Durr gets to teach amazing students听like Sophee Dever,听president of the听Arlington听FFA听(Future Farmers of America)听and Ryan Smith,听FFA听secretary.听

Dever and Smith explained that the听Ag Center听has a three-circle听model. The听FFA听is听an organization that听helps听promotes听agriculture education and听teaches听leadership.听Portion听two of the model is the classroom curriculum (vet med,听advanced animal science, etc.)听Finally,听there is the听SAE (Supervised Agriculture Experience), which helps听students build听on听their knowledge from听the classrooms听on topics such as raising livestock like cattle to even听testing their skills in听horticulture.听听听

STEM Student off to Stanford in the fall

STEM Academy student Chijioke Mgbahurike applied for the Amazon Future Engineer scholarship on a whim after realizing he met eligibility requirements.

The results helped turn an ordinary day at Martin High School into an extraordinary one when he opened an Amazon package April 28 and discovered he鈥檇 won a $40,000 scholarship.

The program helps underserved students advance their education in computer science with a scholarship and paid summer internship opportunity at Amazon.听 To diversify the technology industry, the company awards scholarships to 100 students across the nation who have completed a high school computer science course and plan to further their education in computer science.

The Surprise of a Lifetime

Teachers and staff surrounded Mgbahurike as he opened the box that held a certificate and company paraphernalia. He was surprised and filled with excitement as he opened the box and learned about his award status.

鈥淚 guess I was a stronger applicant than I thought,鈥� said Mgbahurike.

Mgbahurike鈥榮 family is originally from Nigeria and moved to the United States in 2010. He credits his mother as being his biggest supporter throughout life.

鈥淪he always told me I could succeed at anything I wanted to do if I worked hard enough,鈥� Mgbahurike said. 鈥淣o matter how tough things may get along the way, you have to keep going.鈥�

Developing Solutions Before Graduation

While in the STEM Academy at Martin, Mgbahurike participated in several competitions in the district and visited the University of Oklahoma for Math Day, a day-long program of math activities for high school students from Oklahoma and Texas. His teachers describe him as a specialist in Hackathon, a project-based event designed to test students鈥� engineering skills by allowing them to create a solution to an issue they have noticed in or with schools and students. Mgbahurike recently had the opportunity to present his original software solution to Superintendent Marcelo Cavazos and Chief Academic Officer Dr. Steven Wurtz.

Awards Galore

鈥淭he STEM program at Martin is the absolute best in the city,鈥� said Mgbahurike. 鈥淭he countless opportunities it gives you to succeed are extremely beneficial to your growth as a student, and it helps develop your passion for innovation in science and technology.鈥�

The National Honor Society, Mayor鈥檚 Youth Commission, Ready Writing program and a software developer internship at Bell Flight also keep Mgbahurike busy throughout the school year. Spare time may seem like a foreign concept in the life of such a hard-working student, but Mgbahurike finds time to play soccer, watch anime and cook his favorite foods when he鈥檚 at home.听

Dedication, Drive, Determination

Jennifer Rothwell, an advanced English teacher at Martin, has taught Mgbahurike since he was a freshman and has enjoyed seeing his growth as a continuous learner.

鈥淚t鈥檚 truly amazing to see all of his goals from years ago come to fruition,鈥� said Rothwell. 鈥淚 always knew he had so much potential because he was the only student that didn鈥檛 just want to excel in school. He wanted to understand life, and I wish every student possessed that type of insight.鈥�

鈥淚n all my years of teaching him, he never took one opportunity for granted. He had no sense of entitlement and worked diligently to get to this point today.鈥�

Standford - for the Weather

In the fall, Mgbahurike will attend Stanford University on a full scholarship to pursue a bachelor鈥檚 degree in computer science.听

鈥淪tanford has one of the top computer science programs in the world, and I can鈥檛 wait to expand my knowledge with the best leaders in technology,鈥� said Mgbahurike.

While Stanford won the competition to get Mgbahurike to enroll, it鈥檚 not like he didn鈥檛 have other outstanding options. Yale and Columbia are also among the schools that offered him full scholarships.听

鈥淵ale and Columbia are great schools, but I really want to enjoy the California weather,鈥� said Mgbahurike.听 He has no plans of slowing down any time soon and wants to continue his extracurricular involvement at Stanford.

鈥淚t鈥檚 my mission to come back and tell kids about the wonderful opportunities and benefits of the STEM program at Martin,鈥� said Mgbahurike. 鈥淭his program changed my life, and other students need to be aware of the positive impact they can make in the community and the country if they dive in.鈥�

Winner of the 2020 Congressional App Challenge

Being a student at the STEM Academy opened up more than just a new world in education for Michelle Nguyen. Attending the school on the Martin High School campus also served as the inspiration for an award-winning app designed by the 16-year-old junior.

The light-bulb moment was born from Nguyen鈥檚 interactions with classmates at STEM Academy from all over the city.

鈥淚 realized that even though we all lived in Arlington and went to Arlington public schools, our experiences and the environments we were surrounded by were different,鈥� Nguyen said.

Bridging those differences with the shared interests of students from across 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 led Nguyen to design 鈥淐lava.鈥� The app connects people to others with similar likes, regardless of where they live and what school they attend.

鈥淔or example, the computer science scene at Martin is stronger than most other high schools, so someone interested in CS at another school would have a harder time finding peers with that same interest,鈥� Nguyen said. 鈥淚 wanted to help lessen those differences and provide a way for students to connect in a meaningful way. After all, doing something you like with other people helps keep you motivated.鈥�

Motivation has not been an issue for Nguyen. She鈥檚 taken part in computer science competitions since her freshman year. STEM Academy/Martin teacher James Hovey coached Nguyen in those contests, and has been her advanced computer science instructor the past two years.

鈥淢ore so than any student I've had before, Michelle loves to compete,鈥� Hovey said. 鈥淭hese competitions require and teach skills far beyond what we learn in class. She competes in coding competitions, many different web design competitions, app development and a variety of cybersecurity competitions.鈥�

Clava earned Nguyen national recognition, with the late Rep. Ron Wright naming her as the winner of the . More than 6,500 students registered for the 2020 Congressional App Challenge, submitting 3,088 functioning apps amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The idea of Clava immediately connected with Hovey.

鈥淚 remember when she thought of the idea, and I loved it immediately,鈥� he said. 鈥淚 appreciate all the activities and clubs that my students participate in, and we鈥檇 realized that many of them were things that only our school did. I know how much knowledge, fun and benefit students gain from these activities, and how many other students even locally were not getting the same opportunities.鈥�

It鈥檚 safe to say that Nguyen has made an impression over the years. STEM Academy coordinator Marianne Varner taught Nguyen in freshman geometry, and they鈥檝e worked together ever since.

鈥淪he is an outstanding student,鈥� Varner said. 鈥淪he is currently a junior, and taking courses at both Martin and UTA.听She is very organized and on top of things, and yet she relates well to both peers and teachers.鈥�

The STEM Academy had its first freshman class fall of 2015.听The application program is open to entering 9th graders from across the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 and private/charter schools.听Currently, the Academy has 535 students who are cohorted in their pathways and core classes. As juniors, they can start taking dual credit classes at UTA in STEM courses such as engineering, computer science, mathematics, psychology, chemistry and biology, along with some basic college classes.

The Academy has graduated two classes so far 2019 and 2020, with 98 percent of graduates attending four-year college programs.听Among the universities attended by Academy alums are MIT, Stanford, Carnegie-Mellon, Johns Hopkins, Notre Dame, Rice, Texas A&M, Texas and UTA.听

鈥淥ur students are very well prepared to stay in college programs,鈥� Varner said. 鈥淥ur motto that we share with the kids is 鈥楧ream big, be bold.鈥欌��

Nguyen also plays tennis for Martin, is a peer mentor for STEM Academy freshmen, founded the Girls Who Code club and president of the Key Club.听And her Nguyen鈥檚 cleverness isn鈥檛 confined to just coding. Clava is Latin for 鈥渃lub.鈥�

She鈥檚 certainly made the most of her of team at STEM Academy.

鈥淎fter being in the STEM Academy for nearly three years now, I can definitively say that it one of the best choices I could have made,鈥� she said. 鈥淔or one, it鈥檚 allowed me to meet people who have pushed me to become a better person and challenge me every day. I feel like I have made lifelong friends with people in STEM who I would have otherwise never met.

鈥淪TEM has also provided me with so many opportunities such as allowing me to participate in various coding competitions, taking me on trips to places like NASA, and giving me the ability to take UTA classes as a high school student.鈥�

Las oportunidades para que un estudiante se encaminen hacia el 茅xito no surgen con frecuencia, por lo que cuando lo hacen, es importante actuar con rapidez.

Ese es el caso en 色窝窝无码一区二区三区, que tiene un abierto del 1 al 19 de marzo que permitir谩 a los estudiantes cambiarse a un distrito que transformar谩 su futuro. Y la buena noticia es que ni siquiera tiene que vivir en Arlington o estar asignado al Distrito Escolar Independiente de Arlington. El distrito est谩 "abierto", lo que significa que cualquier estudiante puede aprovechar las oportunidades ilimitadas que tiene para el 茅xito sin importar cu谩l sea su camino.

Aqu铆 hay tres oportunidades disponibles para todas las edades.

STEM COMIENZA TEMPRANO

En 色窝窝无码一区二区三区, cada escuela primaria tiene dos laboratorios STEM que ayudar谩n a que los estudiantes se abran a oportunidades excepcionales. Y gracias al Paquete de Bonos 2019, cada escuela primaria tambi茅n tendr谩 dos patios de recreo apropiados para la edad que ser谩n accesibles seg煤n la ADA. Y si lo que desea son bellas artes, eso tambi茅n comienza en la escuela primaria, ya que todas las escuelas tienen una sala de cuerdas y los instrumentos se proporcionan de forma gratuita para todos los estudiantes.

OPORTUNIDADES DE ATLETISMO

Los deportes comienzan en la secundaria en 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 en sus 10 escuelas. Eso incluye tanto el tenis como la lucha libre.

Si est谩 buscando facilidades para su hijo, el distrito acaba de abrir un natatorio de 煤ltima generaci贸n con una piscina ol铆mpica y un nuevo estadio como parte de un complejo de atletismo que se encuentra en el coraz贸n de Arlington. distrito de entretenimiento. En febrero, m谩s de 70 de nuestros estudiantes atletas participaron en el D铆a Nacional de la Firma, recibiendo casi $ 5 millones en becas.

LA SECUNDARIA ES CLAVE

色窝窝无码一区二区三区 est谩 abierto para todos, pero para aprovechar al m谩ximo nuestros , debe transferirse antes de la escuela preparatoria. Esto se debe a que en el octavo grado es cuando los estudiantes completan su solicitud para nuestras tres escuelas preparatorias de universidad temprana, as铆 como para nuestra Academia STEM en Martin High School. Los estudiantes de noveno grado tambi茅n comienzan a tomar clases que pueden ayudarlos a obtener empleos a trav茅s de programas en nuestro Centro de Carreras T茅cnicas Dan Dipert. Si la oportunidad de obtener hasta 60 horas de cr茅dito universitario gratuito o la oportunidad de ir a nuestra nueva escuela con un enfoque en carreras m茅dicas en Bowie High School es adecuada para usted, entonces debe llegar aqu铆 antes de la escuela preparatoria.

Si estas tres razones no son suficientes, visite nuestro para obtener informaci贸n sobre cuatro m谩s.

Para aprovecharse de todo eso y m谩s, debe dar el primer paso antes del 19 de marzo para a 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 y transformar su futuro.

Set your students up on a path for success

Opportunities to set students up on a path for success don鈥檛 come up often, so when they do, it鈥檚 important to act fast.

That鈥檚 the case in the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区, which has a open from March 1 to March 19 that will allow students to transfer into a district that will transform their future.

Students can transfer to the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 and set themselves up for a future of success no matter what their path is. Here are seven opportunities available for all ages.

听STEM STARTS EARLY

In the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区, every elementary school has two STEM labs that will help open up students to outstanding opportunities. And thanks to the 2019 Bond, each elementary school will also have two age-appropriate playgrounds that will be ADA-accessible. And if fine arts are what you want, that starts in elementary school, too, as every school has a strings room, and instruments are provided free of charge for all students.听 听

ATHLETIC OPPORTUNITIES

Sports begin in junior high in the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 at 10 campuses. Did you know that includes both tennis and wrestling? And in those sports the junior high students are taught by varsity head coaches. And if you鈥檙e looking for facilities for your child, the district just opened a state-of-the-art natatorium as well as a new arena as part of an athletics complex that is located in the heart of Arlington鈥檚 entertainment district. In February, more than 70 of our student athletes participated in National Signing Day, earning nearly $5 million in scholarships.听听听听听听听听

JUNIOR HIGH IS KEY

The 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 is open for everyone, but to take full advantage of our you must transfer before high school. That鈥檚 because eighth grade is when students apply for our three early college high schools as well as our STEM Academy at Martin High School. Ninth graders also start taking classes that can help lead to jobs through programs at our Dan Dipert Career & Technical Center. If the opportunity for up to 60 hours of free college credit or a chance to go to our new school with a focus on medical careers at Bowie High School is right for you, then you have to get here before high school.听听听听听听听听听听听

SAFETY AND SECURITY

The pandemic that hit last year was a devastating blow for many. But in coming to the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区, know that you鈥檙e enrolling in a district that has put safety and security of students and staff members as a priority. We opened a COVID-19 testing site for staff and students last year and have strict COVID-19 protocols in place at all of our campuses.听听听听听听听听

ACCESS TO TECHNOLOGY

The 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 wastes no time in taking action. We were one of the few large school districts in the area to be able to start the 2020-21 school year on time. How were we able to do that? By making sure that our students had access to more than 40,000 pieces of technology that were free to them. We made sure students who were learning virtually had access to meals from 30 student-meal locations. That鈥檚 a practice we started when the pandemic first hit and one we continue.听听听听听听听听

ACADEMIES FOR ALL

While every one of our campuses provides outstanding opportunities for everyone, the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 also has five specialized elementary school programs that focus on everything from STEM to leadership and four high school opportunities. We鈥檙e also in the process of opening our first fine arts/dual language junior high. We already have two dual language/fine arts elementary schools.听听听听听听听听

COMMUNITY SUPPORT, TOO

The 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 you transfer into now is ever changing thanks to a community that passed a $966 million bond in 2019. That鈥檚 building on our 2014 Bond, which is why we have the Dan Dipert Career & Technical Center that puts students on paths to success. That鈥檚 why we have the new Center for Visual and Performing Arts, a facility that is unmatched in the area. That鈥檚 why we鈥檙e building new schools, updating every campus and providing our students the best opportunities. Why wouldn鈥檛 you want to come to a district that has that kind of backing?

To take advantage of all of that and more, you have to take the first step by March 19 to to the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 and transform your future.

Counselors demonstrate unyielding devotion

It鈥檚 National School Counseling Week and we want to take this opportunity to highlight our outstanding counselors and guidance and counseling department staff. They are, by nature, selfless and devoted to serving students. This school year, more than any other, that devotion has been tested and proven unyielding.

鈥淎s an elementary counselor, I am passionate about connecting with and supporting my students as I watch them grow socially and emotionally,鈥� said Kristen Hogan from Dunn Elementary, echoing a common refrain among 色窝窝无码一区二区三区鈥檚 counselors.

Our school counselors work with each student and focus on social and emotional wellness, academic achievement and college and career readiness.听Their goal is for each student to receive the emotional and academic support and resources they need to achieve their maximum potential in school and life.

Adapting during COVID-19

But COVID-19 has served up a challenge like no other. The pandemic has separated counselors from their students while creating an environment where many students need more support than ever. More than ever, counselors are critical.

So, counselors have adapted. School closures, quarantines and social distancing were not going to keep them from reaching their students.

鈥淎lthough the pandemic has created challenges, school counselors are adapting to meeting the emotional and academic wellbeing of students,鈥� said Telisa Brown, 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 director of guidance and counseling. 鈥淐ounselors are regularly, intentionally mapping out systems to keep students connected. They are reaching out to parents and families, ensuring students are sustaining strong supporting relationships with adults in the school, and counselors are consistently helping students develop coping skills and remaining at a place mentally where they are ready to learn.鈥�

It hasn鈥檛 been easy though. Counselors and the district鈥檚 counselor specialists have had to navigate an environment where they are often isolated themselves and have to rely on technology to interact with each other and their students. Like their students, they are without many of the in-person supports and relationships they usually rely on.

"A large percentage of our job is typically face-to-face interaction, and the virtual setting has definitely presented its challenges,鈥� said Anitra Givens, lead counselor at Bowie High School. 鈥淏ut I've utilized all platforms to communicate with parents and students, like social media, Canvas and email. I'm also partnering with teachers more to address social and emotional needs."

Getting creative during COVID-19

Adopting a whatever-it-takes attitude, counselors have tapped into their creativity to reach students. For a great example, read what Hogan has done at Dunn in her own words:

鈥淎s we returned to campus for in-person learning, I was ecstatic to see students in our buildings again. I explored different ways to connect with my students while maintaining the recommended social distancing guidance. One fun thing we did was take our guidance lessons outside. Through generous donations from parents and friends, we had enough lawn chairs for each student to participate outside. I was beyond grateful for everyone who donated the chairs, because they gave more than just a lawn chair. They gave these students a chance to connect, share, learn and grow outside and allowed me the chance to see their precious smiles in person. This time was filled with reading, coloring and listening to music. I never thought that teaching students how to fold up a lawn chair would be a part of my lessons but I鈥檓 so thankful for the fun opportunity this presented! There鈥檚 something special about learning outside in the sunshine with a lawn chair that makes you feel relaxed and at peace.鈥�

In an effort to detox from technology, I have provided focused opportunities for students to express their emotions through creative art projects.听Art is a powerful coping tool as it helps kids to self-regulate and process big emotions. This week we discussed loving yourself and the power of positive self-talk. We painted hearts on tinfoil using Q-tips as a reminder to love yourself.鈥�

Our counselors have truly risen to the occasion and we are thankful.

鈥淚 have never been prouder of our counselors,鈥� said Jodie Dunn, 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 elementary counselor specialist. 鈥淓ven when they have had to do things that were never part of their job before, they led with their hearts and kept trying to connect with their students. I've just been in awe of their tireless dedication to supporting every student in this district and ensuring all students felt love and had every resource they need to be successful.鈥�

Our counseling hotline, which is open Monday through Friday from noon to 4 p.m., can be reached at 682-867-9416. That number is operated by school counselors. You can also schedule a time with your school counselor at this听.听

Ceremony hosted in New Athletics Center听

Seated socially distanced from her two teammates, Autumn Smith鈥檚 smile beamed at the thought of reaching another milestone a lifetime in the making. The Martin High School senior girls basketball standout was among more than 70 student-athletes from across 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 honored at Wednesday鈥檚 National Signing Day Ceremony at the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 Athletics Center.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a really cool experience getting everyone together, especially since it鈥檚 COVID going on, you don鈥檛 get to see everyone together like this, so it鈥檚 great to share this with my teammates and coaches and family,鈥� said Smith, an All-State performer headed to Louisiana Tech next year.

Despite the obstacles of a challenging year, 73 student-athletes rose to the occasion to earn athletic scholarships to 54 colleges and universities. The scholarships total $4.9 million, based on a four-year college plan, according to 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 officials.

The Signing Day Ceremony is a public acknowledgment of years of dedication for an accomplished collection of young women and men. Their decisions to continue their academic and athletic careers across Texas and the country is both special and unique.

鈥淚t鈥檚 such a great accomplishment,鈥� 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 athletic director Eric White said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 not only a sign of physical and mental hard work, it鈥檚 a sign of perseverance, especially in a year like this to push through. It would have been easy to check out.

鈥淓very year we have this it鈥檚 such a great accomplishment for kids to show their dedication. And for the parents and coaches for their support and what they pour into them, it鈥檚 a celebration and culmination of something they worked four years for. And it鈥檚 a transition to set them up for the next stage of life and the opportunity to be successful.鈥�

All six 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 high schools were represented, with scholarships going out for 12 different sports.

鈥淚t鈥檚 wonderful to look across and see kids from every one of our schools,鈥� White said. 鈥淭hat鈥檚 a testament to our leadership, it鈥檚 a testament to our coaches, it鈥檚 a testament to our administration. It鈥檚 creating a culture here that gives our kids an opportunity to succeed.鈥�

As much as that culture allows 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 student-athletes to pursue their many passions, it鈥檚 clear that one game remains king in the Lone Star State. More than 40 student-athletes inked football scholarships at colleges such as Texas, Arizona, Kansas State, Oregon State, Army and Navy.

鈥淚t鈥檚 Christmas in February,鈥� said Sam Houston football coach Anthony Criss, who had five of his players sign. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a great honor to see these kids get an opportunity to get an education. Awesome day. A great event by the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区.鈥�

The competition for scholarships proved tougher than normal with the NCAA allowing an extra year of eligibility for current college student athletes due to the pandemic. But these 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 standouts aren鈥檛 afraid of a little extra competition in the classroom or on the field of play.

And though they鈥檙e ready for the next step, many of their high school careers aren鈥檛 done just yet. Smith, along with teammates Mariah Roberts (TCU), Taliah Hill (Lamar) and the rest of the state-ranked Lady Warriors, begin their playoff run next week back at the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 Athletics Center.

鈥淚鈥檓 very excited about the playoffs and how that will go,鈥� Smith said. 鈥淲e can鈥檛 look past anyone. We have to think about the game that鈥檚 coming up and what we need to do to move on to the next round. We鈥檙e going to have to persevere and stay consistent.鈥�

Classroom addition to open in August

Gunn Junior High is practically unrecognizable. With multiple additions under construction, the look 鈥� and size 鈥� of the building is changing dramatically. It will eventually look great, but right now, it looks like a big construction site. The 2019 Bond project at Gunn is converting the school into a fine arts/dual language junior high academy. Here鈥檚 the latest update on the construction.

Work on the additions is ongoing. The south classroom addition is progressing on schedule and will be ready for students this August.

Steel erection for the "in-fill" addition (between the main school building and the cafeteria and gym building) is complete as contractors work to get the new kitchen and new cafeteria ready for the start of school in August 2021.

The foundation for the north addition 鈥� locker rooms and athletic area 鈥� is almost complete. That addition is scheduled to be open mid-fall.

Inside the existing building, renovations for the fine arts rooms are ongoing, including dance, piano, theater and music. The band, choir and orchestra rooms are mostly finished, and the theatre and dance spaces are underway. Outside, a new parking area on the west side of the building is now open along with the redone north-side parking lot. A new fire loop is also complete along with a new retention pond. The athletic field has been resurfaced with field turf and is now open.

Additional renovations to the existing building are scheduled to start in September, after students have moved into the new classroom addition, and will wrap up in the fall semester of 2022.听

The construction project at Gunn started immediately after the 2019 Bond was approved in November 2019. With the addition and renovations, Gunn will become home to a new junior high fine arts and dual language academy while continuing to serve the 7^th听and 8^th听grade students zoned for the school.

色窝窝无码一区二区三区 teacher first to win the award

Ellis Elementary sixth grade teacher Antonio Young expected Thursday to be just like any other day at school.

He couldn鈥檛 have been more wrong.

Young鈥檚 morning started when he was escorted outside the school by principal Keith Boyd to find the Dallas Cowboys bus, team mascot Rowdy, 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 Superintendent Dr. Marcelo Cavazos and others waiting to honor him. It ended with his class talking to Cowboys offensive lineman Joe Looney on a Zoom call about Young, his students and teaching.

Those are the kinds of days that happen when you鈥檝e been selected as the first .

鈥淚 had no idea,鈥� said Young. 鈥淭hey got me on this.鈥�

Young found out about the honor in December when the Cowboys announced he was the winner on social media. As part of the award, the school received a $3,000 grant, which will be used for an interactive learning experience in Young鈥檚 classroom.

That was where Young thought the honors ended. Instead, Young was given a Cowboys jersey with his name and the No. 1 on it, and his class had a chance to talk to Looney during an afternoon class period.

鈥淎ntonio Young demonstrates excellence,鈥� Cavazos said. 鈥淲e met several years ago, and he does a phenomenal job connecting with the students. He represents our teachers extremely well.鈥�

Young, who teaches English Language Arts, uses his writing and rapping ability to interact with his students. Several of his students have starred in videos with Young, including last year featured on Access Hollywood and in . Young also put together a with students for the 2020-21 school year, another for the city鈥檚 , and is working on another for Black History Month this year.

And that鈥檚 just what he does with his free time outside the classroom.

When Ellis Elementary principal Keith Boyd found out that Young was nominated for the award, he wasn鈥檛 surprised.

鈥淗e was just in my office asking me what more he could do,鈥� Boyd said. 鈥淚 can鈥檛 think of anyone better to be honored.鈥�

Young鈥檚 students were also involved as they got to go outside to see him get surprised by the Cowboys team bus being in the parking lot. They also got to participate in the Zoom session with Looney, where they got to talk about their favorite Cowboys players as well as their favorite class. Looney was also able to talk to the students about the importance of education.

Since they have a teacher like Young, they already knew that.

鈥淎s a person who鈥檚 always loved education, I loved education as a student myself,鈥� Young said. 鈥淚 feel that the future these kids are going to walk into as they graduate from high school, they have to be prepared and ready. But they first have to love education. So to do it, bringing education to them in a way that鈥檚 going to make them want to learn and have fun in the classroom, just that element of writing rap songs to provide a positive outlet for them. It means the world to be recognized for it.鈥�
