2.  Welcome to Eisenhower High School, part of the Aldine School District, near Houston

4. We, the members of the Eisenhower Senior High community, are committed to enriching the lives of all whom we touch. We will accomplish this goal by maintaining academic excellence, examining and sharing positive values, affirming dignity in diversity, promoting positive social development, and serving as a community resource.

6.  I taught in a rural district before coming to Aldine. It is different, but in such a good way! There are so many students who can benefit from your instruction! These students just need someone to care and show them opportunities. Whether they chose a career in agriculture or not, they are better off with the instruction we provide.

7.  FFA activities like Public Relations, Quiz, Speaking Events, etc.  Livestock Shows (primarily the local show which is very well funded)

9.  Poverty?  Diversity?  Crime?

12. 1) Do all students CHOOSE to take AGSC courses? What are the advantages and disadvantages of this? 2) How are the demographics of our state and nation changing? What are the related challenges and opportunities for AGSC Programs? 3) How does teaching in an urban setting make you feel? How would teaching in a very rural setting make you feel? What biases/prejudices do you carry to those environments? Where do you think most of our AGSC majors end up teaching? What could you do to be prepared for a variety of situations? 4) Is AGSC relevant for all students today? Explain.
