Howdy Colts! Did you know that our @ahscolts_drones team is ranked 5th in the UNITED STATES for drones?!?!?!
Here's the backstory about our team. Team Horsepower was started a couple of months ago when we were offered a chance to compete in the Bell Helicopter AVR competition. We were given a box of parts and were challenged with assembling a drone that would “fight fires” with a simulated water pickup and water cannon (laser). This group of Colts was able to not only come together and figure out this real-world problem but built a drone with global GPS, first-person cameras, thermal cameras, gimbal-mounted lasers, mobile hotspots on board and so much more.
We competed in our first competition 4 weeks ago at UTA, and in our first competition we won the award for Exemplary Team, then in our second contest won the award for “Best Design” and took 2nd place overall, with the 6th highest total points in the entire country making us one of the only fifteen schools invited to the finals. Last Friday and Saturday, Mr. Smith and Mr. Grimaldo, and Mr. Hansard took the team to Bell helicopters Flight Research Center and Horsepower made a showing in the community that would have made each of us proud in their professionalism, curiosity, willingness to help others and their drive in the face of adversity.
It was enough that multiple Bell engineers asked to “visit AHS and want to spend more time with the future of Bell” (direct quote from the V208 Valor lead).
Congrats to our team: Arial Q, Katie D, JT A, Kutay C, James S, Zachary S, Santiago P, Michael H, Jesus S, Jeremy N, and Justice C!
We hope to continue and grow this program showing everyone it really is better in Colt Country! Way to go Team Horsepower! #coltsfamily #firsthere #spiritpridetradition #startalegacy #leavealegacy #kickem ... See MoreSee Less

Colt Jazz Fans, Our Jazz Holiday Concert was a music-filled night. We heard the oldies, Christmas tunes, songs with a message, and a new AHS tradition was initiated.
Mr. Hervey introduced the Green Tie Club. This special honor can be earned by students who make all regional Jazz Band or fulfill other prescribed performance requirements. Our first Colt to earn this honor was Davis C. Let's congratulate Davis on this accomplishment AND our jazz ensemble for a great evening of music. #coltsfamily #firsthere #kickem #spiritpridetradition #StartALegacy #leavealegacy ...

Colts Family, You may have seen our prior post about AHS IB alumnus Isaac James. He was recently named a Rhodes Scholar, one of only 32 Americans chosen this year. Isaac earned his IB diploma and graduated from AHS in 2018. He is the epitome of a Colt: hard-working and passionately involved. We witnessed his academic abilities and deep commitment to his community here and have followed his important work at UT. He'll be working on a graduate degree in education at Oxford, focusing on social change. We are so proud of him and look forward to watching his positive impact on the world. Take a moment to follow our IB program on Instagram & FB. @arlington_ib Arlington High School IB If you would like more information about our IB program, you can read more online here: www.aisd.net/district/departments/academic-services/transformational-learning/advanced-academics/... or email Ms. Boutilier @ cboutili@aisd.net.

Howdy Colts, Last week, four of our AHS FFA students received their FFA Official Dress jackets. Students and families listened to a presentation on how to properly wear the jacket, the history being the jacket, and lastly the legacy they can leave once their time in FFA is complete. They listened to Mr. Aaron Alejandro, the executive director of the Texas FFA Foundation, talk about how being in FFA and wearing his jacket opened doors in his life and forever changed him.
We would like to congratulate the following AHS students on receiving their jackets:
- Zachary B.
- Mason D.
- Karmin H.
- Andrew P.
FFA members conducting official business are required to wear "Official Dress." The reason FFA members wear Official Dress is to give equal access to representation from all students in FFA programs locally, regionally, and in state. If you'd like to read more about the history of the Official Dress, check out the links below.
