Aldine Connection
A Newsletter for the Staff and Community of Aldine ISD
Message From the Superintendent - April 2, 2025
Dear Aldine Community,
As we continue our journey through this school year, I am constantly inspired by the dedication, talent, and resilience of our students, staff, and community. The past few weeks have been filled with moments that showcase the heart of Aldine ISD — academic excellence, student achievement, and community engagement. Your support and involvement are integral to these achievements.
Our commitment to innovation was fully displayed as Aldine ISD hosted the FIRST Robotics Competition at M.O. Campbell Educational Center. Students showcased their creativity, teamwork, and engineering excellence, proving that the future is being built here in Aldine ISD!
Their achievements bring pride and connection to our community. Our young scholars at Marcella and Worsham Elementary Schools represented us well at the State Destination Imagination Competition, with Worsham earning top honors in the Technical Challenge.
