One of my favorite parts of our Board meeting this month was seeing our students showcase their talents! A huge thank you to the @AldineHS_AISD Culinary Arts students for catering a delicious meal and to the @BlansonCTEHS Hospitality students for serving our Board members and administrators with such professionalism. This is what learning looks like when students get the opportunity to put their skills into action. Great job, students—and thank you to the teachers who prepare them for moments like these! #ChooseAldine #StudentsFirst @AldineCTE

Mustang Bistro did it again. 🔥 Blackened chicken, red beans & rice, smothered cabbage, AND praline pound cake?? Be serious. How is anyone supposed to work after this? Productivity has left the building. 🍽️😮‍💨Shoutout to Chef Green for reckless levels of good service and flavor.

Having the opportunity to tour Thomas Printworks on Thursday was great. We can’t wait to expose our CTE students to the amazing opportunities happening right down the street. Thank you, Alan, for the tour. We’re looking forward to a strong partnership in 2026. @AldineCTE

Loved watching my son perform with the Houston Academy choir for the first time. This brought back so many memories of me performing. Thank you, Mr. Williams, for your guidance and passion for music. Great job to all the performers today. Excellent show! @Houston_AISD
