At its February meeting, the Angleton ISD Board of Trustees took key actions to support district growth, academic performance and future planning.
Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum Vicki Harmon presented the 2023-2024 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR), which measures the district’s academic performance against state standards. The report shows that AISD students are outperforming state requirements in the “Approaches and Meets” categories in most subjects. Additionally, the district saw improvement in several areas where administrators had set internal improvement goals.
“Our goal is to exceed state standards, and we are proud of the growth we have seen and that our students are continuing to surpass expectations set by the state,” Harmon said. “We want to capitalize on the success we have had and continue to increase performance, and we will do so by remaining focused on supporting our students and our staff to achieve our goals and to provide the academic standards of excellence expected at AISD.”
After reviewing the data from the state, the district has also identified reading performance in 3rd grade as a growth area, specifically noting that the 3rd-grade group were the students severely affected by COVID and were just entering school when the pandemic hit causing them to miss critical school time.
Other topics covered in this month's meeting include; bond issuance, district calendar and more. To read the full blog visit: www.angletonisd.net/bytheboard

Important Message from Angleton ISD - Due to the potential safety risks, portable propane heaters are not allowed at Angleton ISD events, including all sporting events. Their use presents significant safety hazards: fire risks, carbon monoxide exposure, tip-over burn risks, and fuel storage and leakage risks.
AISD encourages spectators at sporting events to bring their own heated seating pads or blankets and to dress in layers when at outdoor events.
We appreciate your help in keeping our events safe and ensuring they are enjoyable events for all.
Last week, campuses wrapped up their GT Showcases, highlighting the incredible work of our gifted students. Over the past few weeks, students across the district have impressed audiences with projects exploring history, culture, art, and innovation. These challenges pushed them to think critically, make real-world connections, and showcase their creativity.
Each student also presented a short summary, sharing the knowledge they gained and the impact of their work. Way to go, Wildcats! 👏

Important Message from Angleton ISD - Tuesday, February 4, 2025
We want to make you aware that a neighboring school district recently released information related to a social media threat targeting their school district. Unfortunately, when one area school district is dealing with an issue like this, it often spreads fear and false rumors to other school districts. Again, this is not happening at Angleton ISD.
We ask parents and students for their help in making sure false information does not spread. If you hear of a threat, the best thing you can do is report the threat through one of the district reporting resources. Please do not spread unverified information or rumors on social media. This only increases the fear for our Wildcat community.
Our reporting systems are:
-- Contact or tell a campus administrator.
-- Contact or tell the AISD Police (979-997-7220).
-- Use the Anonymous Alerts system through the app or by clicking https://report.anonymousalerts.com/angletonisd/ or by visiting the AISD website and going to Keep AISD Safe (See it, Report it).
-- Call Crime Stoppers at 800-460-2222.
Also, we ask parents to continue to talk to their children about not making threatening statements–whether on social media, in writing or verbally–and to avoid escalating situations through their behavior on social media. AISD does not tolerate violence or threats of violence in our schools. We will assign disciplinary consequences accordingly. We also work with our AISD Police Department and inform local, state and federal law enforcement officials to ensure appropriate legal consequences are given as well.
Our top priority is always the safety of our students and staff, and we thank you for helping us as we work to ensure we keep our schools safe.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact your child’s principal.
TODAY!
Come by and stock up on fresh produce, meat, and a variety of shelf-stable items Tuesday, February 4 from 3:30 - 6:30 p.m. at Angleton Junior High (near the softball fields).
The market is not based on income and is open to anyone! If your child is not an AJH student no report card is needed.

Important Message from Angleton ISD - AHS Drumline Competition Incident
Today, our Angleton High School Percussion Drumline was at a competition at Pasadena Memorial High School. There were 43 AHS students at the competition along with two band directors and a percussion technical consultant. At the end of the competition, as the band directors and technical consultant were leaving the school, an elderly male who was standing in the hallway took out a handgun and fired a shot. The technical consultant was hit in the shoulder and was transported to a Houston hospital. The victim never lost consciousness. The AISD percussion director left the scene unharmed and immediately got all AHS students on the bus. All AHS students were safely accounted for and have made their way home to Angleton safely and without further incident. Our information is that the elderly male was apprehended by Pasadena police.
AHS will have counselors on campus first thing in the morning on Monday when school returns to provide support for the students involved in this incident and any other students affected by this incident.
We are deeply saddened by this event, and we wish to commend the Angleton ISD staff for their quick and decisive action in keeping our students safe.
Our current information is that this is an ongoing investigation in which AISD will fully cooperate. Our hearts and prayers go out to all those affected by the incident, and we will continue to provide the needed support for our students and staff.
On Tuesday, AISD Superintendent Phil Edwards gave a presentation at the Brazoria County Commissioners Court, updating the court on the status of some of AISD's major projects and what lies in store for the district. Thank you to the Commissioners Court for allowing Mr. Edwards the opportunity to share about AISD. #AISDCommunity #AISDFortheFuture #BecauseWereWildcats
