A Few Caring People Can Change the World...
In the midst of all the things going on each day at Hearne and in our personal lives, don't forget the impact you are making on the world through your actions and interactions.
We need to work as a team to achieve our goals. What you do today will make a difference in the lives of our students for generations to come. Don't quit. Let your strengths shine bright!
Click on the video above as a short reminder of what we do each day and why it matters.
Never forget:
You are making a difference!
You matter!
Your students need you!
-Johanna Sanchez, Shon Brown, and Jose Serpas
Check out all the awesome things we did this week on Twitter! Keep tweeting the good things happening!
Alief wants to trend on Twitter...you can help!
We are aiming to become a Houston Trend on Twitter and we need everyone’s help! Starting Monday, October 1st please ensure that everyone tweets using the hashtag #aliefmission in ALL LOWERCASE LETTERS….yes, there is a difference in the lettering when it comes to hashtags. It must be all lowercase to help with consistency.
October 1st within every tweet you send be sure to use #aliefmission and tag us at @aliefisd. We will need 1,000 tweets in order for it to become a trend. Trends are updated twice daily and I would love to see Alief active online.
