The Tiger in You...September 4, 2017
In spite of the devastation that occurred in Houston and in surrounding communities, our first week of school went remarkably well. I cannot imagine what is going through the mindset of Houstonians as they recover and establish normalcy. There is no doubt the emotional and academic impact the storm left could afflict the achievements of school aged children. However, as evacuees enroll at AMCHS, we will be a lifeline for them and empower them to learn and pursue their passions. I challenge each of you to think about the life lesson you gained from this experience and provide a little hope to those who are hopeless, happiness to those who are burdened, sunshine in the midst of their darkness, and be what you would want someone to be for you!
As we prepare for week two, several students expressed how they liked their teachers because their teachers were nice, upbeat, welcoming, and friendly. The foundation that we establish sets the tone for the year, and we must be committed to a level of excellence in everything that we undertake. As a school family, we will have a safe, supportive learning environment, maintain a level of excellence for ALL students, strengthen positive relationships with colleagues and students, and implement relevant, rigorous coursework.
Thank you for being committed in bringing out the AMCHS Tiger to make a positive difference in the lives of our students.
