Friendly reminder that Allen ISD will be closed on Friday, April 2 for a school holiday. Enjoy the long weekend with your families!
Cabbage Patch Kids. Thanks @bonnieplants for providing a cabbage plant & learning resources for our 3rd grade GATE learners. #plantlifecycles #greenthumbs #bestdayever #cabbagecompetition
Homework, if given at all, should be about connections beyond the classroom. How can they apply what they’ve learned at school outside of the school experience? Student lives are busy enough without an extension of the school day.
Allen ISD has an important item on the ballot on May 1 known as an Attendance Credit Election, and the district has created this video to explain the election in detail. youtu.be/RRi_a6M8O1I More Information: allenisd.org/2021attendance
Your students don’t need an Instagram-worthy classroom today. They just need adults in their lives that believe in them and are willing to see them for who they are. Be you today, because honestly...you are enough!
Purpose is important. Consider asking your learners to create purpose statements each day to identify the why behind what was learned. Today I learned __________ so that I can ___________. Knowing how they will use what they’ve learned makes it real and provides purpose.
We know you've been waiting all year and we just couldn't wait any longer! National Puppy Day is March 23 and we're starting the celebration NOW! Visit cci.org/puppycam to watch these adorable and very smart pups on the first step of their journeys to become service dogs.
You can walk in 5 different classrooms and see 5 different teachers connecting with students in 5 different ways. Every teacher has their own talents and strengths which make them amazing. They don't need one size fits all pd or evals to be amazing. Good leaders know this!
#nationalpetsittersweek allows us to say thank you to volunteers like @VaughanGATE3rd watching Tavi.
Friday, March 5, 2021, will be an early release day for all campuses. Elementary School: 12:00 Middle School: 12:35 Lowery Freshman Center: 1:05 Allen High School: 1:10 STEAM Center: 1:20
Following TEA’s guidance, Allen ISD will continue its current practice of requiring face coverings for all students in grades 4 through 12, as well as all staff members, for the remainder of this school year. Read more at bit.ly/3blTobn
AISD is closed 2/18 & 2/19. All classes, including at-home virtual classes, are canceled. All afterschool activities and events are also canceled. Based on current weather forecasts, AISD plans to host both in-person & at-home classes beginning Mon, 2/22. allenisd.org
TSCA appreciates and honors you for all you do to help your students be successful and your colleagues stay calm. These are likely the most challenging times we have seen – and school counselors have seen challenging times! This week we encourage you to take time for YOU!
To correct this error, AISD will ask the Board to approve this new calendar with the student holiday/staff development day moved to February 21, 2022. This calendar is pending approval, however, we wanted our community to have this draft calendar as soon as possible. (2/2)
Our puppies are still being transported by incredible volunteer pilots, and we couldn't be more grateful! Thanks to @abc7newsbayarea for the great story! 🐾✈️ buff.ly/2KNCN5w #giveadogajob #puppieswithapurpose #servicedogs
Thanks to @NBCDFW for featuring these future service dogs' arrival via private plane at @bjcdal and @DallasLoveField yesterday! bit.ly/3o0Zukg #caninecompanions #futureservicedogs #giveadogajob
Puppies, puppies, puppies! Thanks to the generosity of volunteer pilots, our mission continues and these puppies were able to get to their volunteer puppy raisers in Texas at @bjcdal and @DallasLoveField today! #giveadogajob #caninecompanions #futureservicedogs @bswhealth
Reminder - Allen ISD will have a student and staff holiday on Monday, January 18, 2021 in memory of the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. @mlkcollincounty will host programming beginning at noon that includes the presentation of art scholarships to two @AllenHS_Eagles seniors.
