Aubrey High School's Cooper Wilson Excels in NASA's Aerospace Scholars Program
Aubrey High School student Cooper Wilson was selected last year to participate in NASA's Aerospace Scholars STEM program. He worked virtually all year with a team of students from around the country on space-themed projects. Their efforts earned them a score of 274 out of 280 and an invitation from Johnson Space Center to participate in the next phase of the program. They will work on Artemis-themed missions to the Moon and Mars, guided by NASA engineers and scientists who will oversee their research, designs, and final presentations.
Congratulations to Cooper for his achievements. #AubreyProud #InspiringChaps #NASA
Happy 4th of July

Isaac is a frontrunner in the “Stuck at Prom” contest, where contestants create their entire prom dress or tux out of duct tape. According to Isaac’s entry, it took him 16 rolls of tape and 123 hours to complete his masterpiece, which was inspired by three things: faith, family, and freedom.

Summer Learning: Fire Safety
This week, the Aubrey Fire Department dropped by our elementary summer school to talk to the kids about fire safety—just in time for the Fourth of July!
Here are five fire safety tips from the United States Fire Administration (USFA) to keep everyone safe this summer:
1. Build Campfires Safely: Make sure campfires are at least 25 feet away from tents, bushes, and anything that could catch fire.
2. Supervise Kids Around Fires: Always keep an eye on kids when there’s a fire pit. They’re curious and might get too close.
3. Store Matches and Lighters Safely: Keep matches and lighters out of kids’ sight and reach. They can be very tempting.
4. Properly Extinguish Fires: Before heading to bed or leaving the backyard, make sure all fires are completely out.
5. Leave Fireworks to the Pros: The safest way to enjoy fireworks is to watch a professional display.
Thanks to the Aubrey Fire Department for the visit and for helping us stay safe!

Excitement Builds as West Family Visits New Elementary School
Carson West, alongside his sister Teresa West Mancuso and brother-in-law Gus Mancuso, visited the construction site of the soon-to-open West Elementary School. Named in honor of their parents, Pete and Myra West, the campus is set to open its doors in Fall 2024.
The Aubrey Independent School District (ISD) Board of Trustees officially approved the naming of Elementary School #4 as Pete and Myra West Elementary School at their March meeting. The decision celebrates the Wests' long-standing dedication to education within the Aubrey ISD community, where both served as educators for many years.
Pictured below, the West children proudly show off their West Elementary gear.

Aubrey ISD football summer camp will be held Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Times will remain the same.
Camp will be held at Chaparral Stadium. In the event of inclement weather, camp will be moved to the high school auxiliary gym.
We appreciate your patience and flexibility.
Due to inclement weather and unsafe road conditions, we have made the decision to not hold our football camp today. Safety of our students and families is first priority. An announcement will be made this evening with plans for the next few days. We will keep you posted. Thank you for your flexibility. Stay safe!
Starting May 28, our offices will be open Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with a lunch closure from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. All offices will be closed on Fridays.
