Rolling up their sleeves
LyondellBasell volunteers build Outdoor Science Learning Center
at Harvey Brown Elementary
Behind the muscle and rolled up sleeves of close to 100 LyondellBasell
volunteers, along with students and others – a new outdoor science learning center has taken shape from the ground up at Harvey Brown Elementary School.
Employees from LyondellBasell’s Channelview Complex planted trees and built habitat areas on the school campus where teachers can conduct outdoor science activities. The volunteer effort was part of the 13th annual LyondellBasell Global Care Day, which is a worldwide community service initiative involving 3,500 employee volunteers participating in 69 projects in 61 communities in 20 countries where the company operates.
“We are very appreciative
to LyondellBasell and all of the many volunteers that helped make this project a reality,” said David Walker, principal of Harvey Brown Elementary. “We will put it to good use in providing unique learning experiences for our students.”
Along with LyondellBasell employees, students and staff from the school joined forces during the workday.
In addition to the project at Harvey Brown Elementary, volunteers from LyondellBasell cleared debris and trash near the campus. The volunteers also judged an art contest for local schools.
“LyondellBasell has been a longtime partner in our schools,” said Channelview ISD Superintendent Greg Ollis. “This is another example to their commitment to education.”
More than 100 volunteers from LyondellBasell’s Channelview Complex, community members and others helped construct an outdoor learning center at Harvey Brown Elementary.
A group of local business and community leaders has formed a non-profi t organization to receive tax-exempt donations from individuals and fi rms for use in programs to enrich the educational offerings of the Channelview Independent School District.
“The group has created the Channelview ISD Education Foundation to give the people in our community a chance to help others in the same special ways the Channelview ISD may have helped them,” said David Brady, President of the Founda-tion Board of Directors and a 1983 Channelview High School alumnus. “We intend to support a variety of educational proj-ects which otherwise, would not exist.”
In addition to Brady, 21 other individuals serve as directors of the Foundation who serve without pay, representing the Channelview ISD Board of Trustees and Greg Ollis, Superin-tendent of Schools, are also voting members of the Board.
“There are any number of good programs we have wished for over the years which could enrich our students, but which we simply could not afford,” Ollis said. “The Foundation will give us a chance to fund many of these worthwhile programs
and projects.” He added that “the idea of the Foundation comes from other districts throughout the country that have begun a similar organization in recent years.” It is estimated that over 4,000 public school districts have established foundations.
Mark Kramer, executive director of the foundation, said plans to help fi nance innovative teaching grants to pay inciden-tal costs of teacher initiated classroom projects and programs are the major proposals already being discussed for Foundation sponsorship.
The Foundation has received major contributions from Lyon-dellBasell, United Community Credit Union, Bay-IBI Archi-tects, Gulf Coast Educators Federal Credit Union and local Justice of the Peace Mike Parrott.
The Foundation will accept gifts of cash, checks, property and insurance and will bequests, as well as in-kind products and services. Donations to the Foundation are tax-deductible. Donations can be sent to the Channelview ISD Education Foundation, 828 Sheldon Road, Channelview, TX, 77530. Further information can be obtained by contacting Mark Kramer at 281-452-8080.
Volunteer mentors from General Electric’s Oil and Gas division have teamed up with Alice John-son Junior High to enhance students’ math skills through the Igniting Minds program.
The Igniting Minds program began at the start of the 2011-2012 school year – and mentors have been working with students in Dana Richard’s classroom to help improve their math skills through applying them to real-world concepts.
“The main objective of our mentors is to help the students understand the fundamentals and concepts of math, by relating to its usage on daily basis,” said mentor Narayana Prasad, who works as a GE engineer.
As part of the program, GE volunteers provided one-on-one mentoring assistance to students in math concepts that included algebra, number prop-erties, data and probability, geometry and measure-ments.
“The individual attention that the students received through this program really helped build their confi dence,” Richard said.
GE volunteers helped the students learn through a variety of fun, hands-on experiments. One experi-ment included a simulation of a bungee jump with a toy and rubber bands. The students then recorded data and defi ned a strain line graph and analyzed the data from the jumps.
Another learning exercise involved the students cutting coupons and bringing them to the mentor-ing session, where they explained how percentages worked in the discounts of items. “The students were excited when they learned how percentages worked in their favor when they shopped with cou-pons,” said GE employee Nam Tran.
Richard said she hopes the GE partnership con-tinues during the 2012-2013 school year.
“Seeing the students improve week after week and watching their excitement grow about math and science was amazing,” Prasad said. “It has been a pleasure to play a part in helping these stu-dents succeed.”

Dedication ceremonies for Lance Corporal Anthony Aguirre Junior High will be held at 5:30 p.m., Tuesday Aug. 7 at the new campus located at 15726 Wallisville Road.
The campus is located directly across the street from the Harris County Public Library.
The school is named in honor of 2004 Channel-view High School graduate Anthony Aguirre, who was killed in action serving in the United States Marines in Iraq on Feb. 26, 2007. On that day, Anthony and his fellow Marines were conducting a routine sweep of their patrol area, when he took a footstep onto an IED. Knowing that releasing his foot would set off the explosive device, he waited until all of his Marine brothers had passed out of harm’s way before removing his foot from the device. By giving the ultimate sacrifi ce, he saved 20 of his fellow Marines that day.
Aguirre Junior High will now be the second junior high school in Channelview ISD, along with Alice Johnson Junior High. Construction of Aguirre Junior High was funded as part of a $111 million bond issue approved by voters in Novem-ber 2009.
Alice Johnson Junior High students Adrianna Jno-Phillip and Jacqueline Escobedo received state recognition for their level of achievement on ACT test scores through the Duke Talent Identifi -cation Program.
With Jno-Phillip and Escobedo receiving state recognition, they will attend Duke’s Academy of Summer Studies at Texas A&M University.
Because of their exceptional academic abil-ity, Duke TIP-identifi ed students often enroll in advanced or honors courses, pursue independent study or participate in accelerated or enrich-ment summer programs. During this school year, more than 63,000 academically-talented seventh graders nationwide took the ACT or SAT through Duke TIP.

TrailBlazers mentor McMullan students
New facilities open their doors
The welcome mat was rolled out for students at Channelview ISD’s new Early Childhood Center and Joe Frank Campbell Learning Center when classes resumed after Spring Break.
Teachers and much of the staff of the campuses spent portions of their holiday moving into their new classrooms to prepare for the opening.
“This has been an exciting time for us,” said Judy Lee, principal of the Early Childhood Center. “With our new and expanded facilities, it allows us to provide even greater learning opportuni-ties for our kids.”
Channelview’s Early Childhood Center houses the Pre-Kindergar-ten program and Day Care Center. The Joe Frank Campbell Center, formerly called the Endeavor campus, is the home of the dis-trict’s non-traditional high school program and the district’s Apollo alternative program.
Joe Frank Campbell Learn-ing Center Principal Mark Sims echoed Lee’s sentiments. “We appreciate the support of the com-munity in making these facilities a reality,” he said. “Our students are truly going to benefi t.”
Channelview High School’s TrailBlazers group served as mentors for a day to students at McMullan Elementary School.
The group of students participated in the mentoring program through Junior Achieve-ment’s “A Difference a Day Makes” initia-tive. McMullan students in all grades and a variety of classes worked with their high
school mentors on different projects and classoom lessons.
The TrailBlazers group was established during the 2008-2009 school year. The program is designed to promote academic excellence and community service. The students are referred by teachers, parents and their peers.
The new buildings are located across the street from their former location at the Channelview An-nex on Sheldon Road. Construc-tion of the buildings was funded by a $111 million bond issue approved by Channelview voters in November 2009.
In addition, the district’s central administration staff is now all un-der one roof as they moved i nto the Joyce Hendrix Educational Support Center, which is next door to the original high school campus on Sheldon Road.
To view more photos of the new facilities, go to the District News page on the district website at www.cvisd.org.

Twice as nice20 CHS seniors presented Associate’s Degreesthrough San Jacinto College’s MECA program
One year aft er Lionel Smith’stragic passing, his motheris presented with his diploma
For one particular group of Channelview High School seniors, graduation ceremonies were twice as nice – as 20 students received their high school diplomas and their associate’s degrees from San Jacinto College North.
The students participated in the Modifi ed Early College Academy (MECA), which is a dual credit program where students earn college credit hours. Students begin the program at the start of their junior year.
Channelview High School MECA students receiving their associate’s degrees were Jorge Guerrero, Arturo Garza, Oziel Guerra, Frank Powell, Cristian Bustos Garduno, Diego Hurta-do, Taylor Ramirez, Aidaly Santamaria, Karen Marquez, Beatriz Arellano, Eric Gernon, Edu-ardo Mora, Sarah Yznaga, Caleb Alford, Ulysses Soto, Mira Carter, Anthony Castillo, Erika Celis, Krystal Kotal and Joseph Doyle.
“What these students have accomplished is amazing,” said Cindi Ollis, Channelview High School principal. “These students have showed great character as they not only tackled their regular high school coursework, but faced the tremendous rigor of college classes – and rose to the challenge.”
San Jacinto College North President Dr. Allatia Harris and Dual Credit Director Jennifer Mowdy presented the Channelview students with their diplomas signifying the awarding of their associ-ate’s degrees at the end of CHS commencement at the Campbell Center in Aldine.
“It takes a lot of work and dedication to gradu-ate and earn an associate degree as a MECA student,” Harris told the audience at graduation. “We are proud of these students and expect to hear good things in the future about their accom-plishments at the university level.”
By Mark Kramer
As the Channelview High School com-mencement ceremonies began, the gradu-ating class walked to their seats in single
fi le, one by one, with a purple ribbon on their lapel.It was a day of refl ection and joy. However, for
this group of seniors, it was also a day to remember and pay tribute to a friend.
That friend was Lionel Smith.Smith died tragically on May 8, 2011 when he
was walking home from a convenience store and was shot by suspects who fl ed the scene. The shockwaves were felt by the entire student body and faculty that posted banners near the entrance of the school that read: “We’ll miss you Lionel.”
A little over one year has passed since the tragic event. While Smith wasn’t there to take that walk across the graduation stage – his senior class had plans to honor their friend in grand fashion.
Midway through the roll of graduates, silence fell over Aldine’s Campbell Center.
Then the next graduate was called…“Lionel Smith.”
Smith’s mother, Venita Reese, slowly walked to the center of the stage embracing CHS Principal Cindi Ollis, who presented her with her son’s diploma. The crowd of 4,000 people then rose to
their feet - standing and cheering.“Lionel was always the fi rst one to send a smile
your way on a day that seemed too tough to handle. He was always cheerful and inspired you to be the same way,” said Taylor Fabriguze, friend and fellow classmate of Smith.
Smith was a CHS varsity football player with a bright future ahead of him. He had plans on at-tending Louisiana State University.
“We all loved Lionel,” said Ms. Ollis. “The show of support (at graduation), certainly showed that he’ll never be forgotten.”

Falcon ‘triple threat’ soars again
Redmond takes 5A High Jump title
Hurts, Johnson and Wesley shine in Bayou Bowl all-star game
Channelview High School’s Maureen Redmond brought home the gold as she won the state championship in the high jump at the UIL Track and Field State Championships. Redmond’s jump of 5’6” inches topped the rest of the fi eld.
Once again, Channelview Falcon quarterback Averion Hurts Jr. and wide receivers Marquise Johnson and Stanley Wesley showed football fans why they are a triple threat.
This time, the stage was the 2012 Bayou Bowl at Stallworth Stadium in Baytown.
The Channelview trio were selected as part of the Texas All-Star team that faced off against Louisiana at the 10th annual event. The two
teams battled to a 23-23 tie, but it was the performance from the three Falcon standouts that turned heads.
Hurts found Wesley for a 42-yard touchdown pass to give the Texas team a 10-point lead at one point in the game and dazzled the crowd with several precision throws on the night. Johnson earned the game’s Most Valuable Player award with 119 yards receiving and a touchdown. Wesley recorded 92 yards receiving in the game.
