Together, we will EMPOWER our EAGLES!
Raising Eagles is designed to inform and engage parents and caregivers as partners, advocates, and continuous learners in their child’s education.
We believe that Allen High School graduates will be:
Effective Communicators
Responsible and Engaged Citizens
Effective Problem Solvers
Academically Prepared for Future Pursuits
Raising Eagles activities are designed to help develop these skills through our shared efforts to support students. Click the images below to explore age-specific strategies you can use at home to support your child’s growth.

Parent/Caregiver Lift-Off Tasks
Lift-Off Tasks are short, meaningful activities that help parents and caregivers extend the impact of each Raising Eagles session into real life. For every session, participants will receive 1–2 follow-up questions or prompts designed to deepen learning, encourage reflection, and strengthen family connection.
These tasks may include:
A reflection question with a practical takeaway for how the session's topic applies to your family
An action step or activity to complete with your child(ren), followed by a reflection on how it went
Whether it's trying a new strategy at home, having a conversation with your child, or exploring a new tool together, Lift-Off Tasks help translate insight into action. Families who complete four or more tasks throughout the year will be celebrated at our end-of-year event in recognition of their commitment to their child’s growth and success.
How to Access Your Lift-Off Tasks:
Review the task options below. When you click the link for a Lift-Off Task, you’ll be prompted to create a login through Easy Generator. At the bottom of the page, click “Don’t have an account?
