Each year the question is asked: Why does Black History Month occur in February? The relevance of February goes back to 1926, when ASALH’s founder Dr. Carter G. Woodson first established “Negro History Week” during the second week of February. And why that week? Because it encompasses the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass—both men being great American symbols of freedom.
Woodson chose February for reasons of tradition and reform. It is commonly said that Woodson selected February to encompass the birthdays of two great Americans who played a prominent role in shaping black history, namely Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass, whose birthdays are the 12th and the 14th, respectively. More importantly, he chose them for reasons of tradition. Since Lincoln’s assassination in 1865, the black community, along with other Republicans, had been celebrating the fallen President’s birthday. And since the late 1890s, black communities across the country had been celebrating Douglass’. Well aware of the pre-existing celebrations, Woodson built Negro History Week around traditional days of commemorating the black past. He was asking the public to extend their study of black history, not to create a new tradition. In doing so, he increased his chances for success.

Where are you from?
Guam
What is your official position here at Stacey?
School Resource Officer
What’s your favorite part about being at this school?
Interacting with students and seeing their growth throughout the years.
Where have you traveled or lived, and which has been your favorite?
Guam, Saipan, Hawaii, Japan, Canada, Germany, Bosnia, Mexico, San Juan Islands, Ft Bliss, TX, Ft Benning GA, Ft Hood, TX, Ft Irwin, CA, Ft Carson, CO, Ft Lewis, WA, RAF Lakenheath, England, Malmstrom AFB, MT, Mexico, Idaho, Oregon, Wyoming, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Missouri, North Dakota, Virginia, Michigan, New York, Kentucky, Tennessee, and other deployed locations. My favorite place is always going to be where my family is. Each place I’ve lived or visited has been what I chose to make of it, allowed me to create great memories, taught me lessons with stories to tell, and has allowed me to make friends all over the world.
If you could give a piece of advice to the seniors, what would it be?
Your future is yours to shape. Life will throw you obstacles, but you have the power to control and navigate through it to achieve the outcome you desire. Make lots of memories, make good choices, and remember that every action carries a consequence. As eager as you may be to leave home, step into adulthood, and make your own decisions, know this: the people who love you are incredibly proud of you. They’re excited to see what this new chapter brings—but they’ll also be adjusting to their own “new normal,” learning to live with the void that comes from your absence. So have empathy and consideration for those who have supported you, guided you, and helped shape who you are today. Call them often. Stay connected. They’ll miss you more than you know.
What’s a fun fact about yourself?
My husband and I have six children ranging from ages 8-27 and 5 pets.

Thank you to all the families who came out to support the Lackland Title I Lakeshore event. We had a wonderful time creating crafts together and enjoying a little shopping. Your support and participation helped make the event a great success, and we truly appreciate our amazing school community. |
Hip hip hooray.....it was a wonderful one hundredth day in kindergarten. Students labeled, counted, built, created, and snacked on all things 100! |
Our students had a great time this week in the library! Our littles loved a puppet show about a family that missed a day of school for snow. The main character, a mouse, tried to help some hungry birds with some cookie crumbs. Students could relate to the kind action of the mouse and missing a day of school for bad weather. We invited a few first graders to participate, and they loved their experience (and so did we!) Our second and fourth graders learned about force and motion and created snowman shooters with paper tubes and balloons. This was a cool learning opportunity! Students were all smiles when they completed their project.
Thursday was the 100th day of school. Our students are 100 days smarter! Some of our teachers and students dressed like they were 100 years old. Big fun! On Friday, we look forward to a special visit from a presenter from Texas Wildlife Association. Our fourth and fifth graders will explore "Skins and Skulls" and make discoveries about animal adaptations! More on that later...Happy reading!

Happy February! As we step into this month of love, kindness, and community, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for your continued support and involvement in your child’s educational journey. February brings exciting opportunities for learning and connection, from engaging classroom activities to special events that celebrate growth and creativity.
The State Goal for Gifted Service reads:
"Students who participate in services designed for gifted/talented students will demonstrate skills in self-directed learning, thinking, research, and communication as evidenced by the development of innovative products and performances that reflect individuality and creativity and are advanced in relation to students of similar age, experience, or environment. High School graduates who have participated in services for gifted/talented students will have produced products and performances of professional quality as part of their program services."

Our GT students are served in a variety of ways, depending on the campus and grade level. Our ultimate goal is to make learning fun and challenging for each of our students, while helping them to grow their critical thinking skills.
Class work and projects for GT students should never be MORE work; it should be DIFFERENT work! This is the heart of differentiated instruction. Our teachers provide differentiated instruction to our GT students throughout the school day. The information below is a simple introduction to what differentiated instruction is.
