It’s Underground Monday, where our staff dresses to match a secret theme that students have to guess! This week’s theme was “wear a shirt that describes your job.” We love making teaching and learning fun!






Great minds truly think alike! Mrs. Burns, Mrs. Castillo, Mrs. Bettge, and Ms. Miller didn’t coordinate their outfits today—yet they still matched! At Ford, we’re effortlessly in sync!

The Allen Eagles Robotics team won honors at a February 28 district FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) held in Tomball, earning first- and fourth-place finishes and points for the state championship in April.
The Eagle Robotics Program also won the Sustainability Award for its work in the district and community. Thirty-four other Texas teams participated in the coral-reef-themed competition. Allen sent two 45-person robot teams and seven mentors to the contest.
The next FRC event will be set for March 21-22 at Nolan Catholic High School in Fort Worth.
Congratulations to these innovative students!
