Great job by the eighth-grade math team at Nichols Junior High. They did a five-week boot camp for their students toget ready for the STAAR test. It included personalized student plans and students rotating to the teachers who best served their math needs. The first-ever Student Career Exploration Night was held for AISD fourth through eighth graders. During the come-and-go event, students explored career possibilities with local employers and the AISD career and technical education department. Congratulations to the 2016-2017 Kiwanis Woodrow Counts Teachers of the Year!
