Bringing history to life for students is crucial because it transforms the study of the past into a dynamic and engaging learning experience. History provides valuable insights into the events, individuals, and societal forces that have shaped the world we live in today. By making history vivid and relatable, students can better appreciate its relevance and connect with the human stories behind historical events. This fosters critical thinking, empathy, and a deeper understanding of the complexities of the past, empowering students to apply these lessons to their own lives and make informed decisions as responsible citizens. In essence, bringing history to life equips students with a richer perspective on the world and the tools to navigate it more effectively.

Our AVID Family has been working hard to learn how to utilize their organizational tools, use collaboration skills during in-class AVID tutorials, and be creative when developing their elevator pitch regarding things they are passionate about. Recently, our 6th-grade students took their first campus tour to Rice University where they learned a lot about the Owls and even met some very popular Rice Owls (and of course we had to take a picture in our AVID Tesla *those who know*)! Be sure to check us out on Twitter using @arms_avid to see what else is coming up:)

If you are interested in being a volunteer, you must be approved by Humble ISD. Please follow the easy steps to become a campus volunteer.

The first step is completing a short online volunteer application. As a part of this process, a background check is completed and within 72 hours, you will receive an email notification regarding the status of your application.

She will add your name to our volunteer list, once you've been approved.

We understand that not everyone has time to be a volunteer at our campus. However, you can make a huge difference by paying the membership fee of $10.00. The membership fee will celebrate the amazing teachers and staff at Autumn Ridge Middle School. Furthermore, it will help coordinate events for our students. CLICK HERE TO JOIN!

For only $20, you can send a special “Happy Birthday” message to your child. The birthday message will run from Monday through Sunday of the week of your child’s birthday. Marquee messages can be purchased on our PTO website each month and will be due 1 week prior to the upcoming month. CLICK HERE, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEND A BIRTHDAY MESSAGE.

Please review this GIF for an overview of how traffic will flow during arrival and dismissal. Students will be allowed to enter the building at 7:50 a.m. (Late Arrival Days: 9:30 a.m.). Dismissal will begin at 4:00 p.m. each day.

For the safety of our students, please do not move our parking cones in any area that is placed to direct traffic. Our traffic signage is expected to be completed soon. Just a few reminders for safety…

1 - The front car rider loop is a “ONE WAY” at all times. Please do not exit the front parking lot, turning right. It is a “left turn” only to follow the car rider loop. Our car rider loop is a double-stacking lane in one direction at all times. “ONE WAY” signs will be posted soon!

2 - The stop sign in the curve of the car rider line was placed there on accident. You may disregard this sign and continue to proceed around the car rider loop to help continue to flow of drop-offs/pick-ups. Please be patient and kind as you merge into one lane in the car rider loop.

3 - Do not drive through cones in the parking lot. We have had to replace several cones that have been destroyed by cars running over them.

4 - In the car rider loop, please encourage your child to be ready to “unload” as soon as your car stops in front of the school (Under the awning area). This helps us move the line faster, get you through the car rider loops faster, and get kids in the building on time. We appreciate you for always “pulling all the way down” before you stop! The thumbs up, smiles, and waves are all in appreciation!!!

If your child is a walker, remind them to proceed home as soon as they are dismissed. We have too many students that are hanging out in front of the school/on campus that should be leaving the campus when they are dismissed. Students found not leaving the campus immediately will receive consequences.
