Throwback Thursday to College Declaration Day with our Stars from the Class of 2016 in the courtyard from our days on Prather Lane. We are looking forward to catching up with these Stars for their 10-year reunion later this year.

We are excited to share that our new principal, Jodi Granado, is featured in the Austin Business Journal's People on the Move.

The feature introduces Jodi to the Austin business community as she begins leading the Ann Richards School into its 20th anniversary. We are excited for what's ahead and the impact her leadership will have on our students, staff, and school community.

Earlier this month, our STARS teachers hosted a Leadership Retreat facilitated by Jennifer Stanchfield with Experiential Tools.

STARS stands for Success Through Academics, Resiliency, and Service, and is our mission statement class because it focuses on leadership, community service, and fulfilling the mission statement of the school.

The STARS curriculum includes community building, gardening, public speaking, resume building, interviewing skills, SAT preparation, college planning, and college campus visits.

This professional development over the summer will help our STARS faculty ensure the leadership principles are instilled in all of our classes, clubs, and organizations.

Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming high school educators from National Taiwan Normal University to the Ann Richards School.

While in Austin for professional development through The University of Texas at Austin's English Language Center, they spent time on our campus with our Director of Programs, Jill DiCuffa, and Director of College Success Programs, Eric Heineman. They toured the school, learned more about our mission, and shared ideas about different approaches to education.

It was a fun opportunity to connect with educators from across the world, learn from one another, and showcase what makes the Ann Richards School community so special.

We have a lot of for our Star catcher Zia S. after she was named to the 2026 Austin American-Statesman's All-Central Texas Softball team. Zia is off to Union College this fall to play for the Garnet Chargers Softball team. Congratulations, Zia, Go Garnet Chargers Softball, and Go Stars Softball!

Today is National Hot Dog Day, and we wanted to give a special shoutout to our Pop Stars dad-led volunteer group. Our Stars appreciate all the hot dogs the Pop Stars have cooked and served over the years for special events like homecoming and beyond.

Service has always been at the heart of who Cielo Reyes Reyes is.

As a Human Rights and Sustainability Intern with the FIFA World Cup 26 Houston Host Committee, our Class of 2022 alum and current Rice University senior helped support initiatives that made the tournament more accessible, inclusive, and impactful for communities across Houston.

But Cielo's commitment to giving back didn't start in college. As an Ann Richards School student, she founded a holiday toy drive for children at Dell Children's Medical Center that became a five-year tradition and earned her the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), Greater Austin Chapter's Kelly Davidson Memorial Outstanding Philanthropic Youth Award.

We're proud to celebrate Cielo's journey from Star student to community leader and to see her continuing to live the Ann Richards School mission of leading with courage and compassion.
