Just like a great conductor, our AP keeps our school in perfect harmony. From orchestrating daily operations to being our students' biggest fan, they never miss a beat. Thank you for leading our ensemble with heart, dedication, and a rhythm that keeps us all moving forward!

Howdy, folks! What an incredible, action-packed Friday we had on campus today!

Our students truly stepped into different shoes today—both literally and figuratively—to celebrate our local culture and honor incredible historical legacies. Here is a look at what we were up to:

Boot-Scootin' into Rodeo Season with Go Texan Day! From tiny cowboy boots to ten-gallon hats and plaid shirts, our halls were filled with the best western gear. The rodeo spirit is alive and well!

We also beautifully wrapped up Black History Month with our student-led Living Wax Museum. Our students worked so hard researching, dressing up, and portraying trailblazing African American historical figures. Listening to them confidently share these important stories was absolutely inspiring!

We are so incredibly proud of our little historians and cowboys/cowgirls for making today so memorable. Be sure to ask your student who their favorite wax museum figure was!
Have a wonderful weekend, Bearkats! @AlvinISD
