Two. More. Days.
Not that anyone is counting.

To every educator holding it together with coffee, lesson plans, and pure willpower, you’ve got this. The countdown is real, the students are feeling it, and somehow you’re still showing up with patience, structure, and heart.

Winter break is almost here. Finish strong, laugh where you can, and remember that what you do every day matters, even on the days that feel a little… goat-like.

A quick note from our IT Director:
“If your computer freezes, the Wi-Fi disappears, or the printer chooses violence this week, please know… it senses winter break too.”

You’ve got this. And yes, we promise, break is coming.

College planning doesn’t start senior year. It starts with clarity.

Students who receive college advising early make stronger academic choices, build realistic timelines, and approach applications with confidence instead of panic. Early guidance helps families avoid rushed decisions and missed opportunities when deadlines start stacking up.

If you work with juniors or seniors, share this resource with families.

Early advising creates calmer students, clearer plans, and better long-term outcomes.

College advising resources are available at aimevaluations.com

You’ve almost made it to winter break.

The coffee is working overtime.

The emails are… ambitious. And somehow, you’re still showing up for students with patience, humor, and a solid poker face.

This is your reminder to take a breath.

The kind where you exhale and realize, “Okay, I survived this week too.”

Winter break is close. The countdown is real. And what you do every day matters more than you know.

Hang in there. You’re doing important work, even on the days that feel held together by caffeine and hope.

Campuses feel the strain when support relies on a few individuals, short term fixes, or constant crisis response.

Sustainable SPED support means creating clear processes, shared responsibility, and consistent pathways that support students and educators year after year.

When systems are strong, identification happens earlier. Interventions are more targeted. Evaluation timelines are clearer. Staff burnout decreases because no one is carrying the weight alone.

Thoughtful SPED support is proactive, not reactive. It is embedded into campus culture, data informed, and aligned across teams rather than patched together when things break.
Strong systems do not just support compliance. They support people.

Partnering with campuses to build sustainable, student centered SPED systems is at the core of our work.

Winter break is the ideal quiet window to prepare campuses for a strong January start.

Here is a simple Winter Break Campus Readiness List for school leaders and support teams:
• Review current student data and intervention progress
• Identify students who may need additional academic or evaluation support before spring
• Check timelines for referrals, evaluations, and eligibility meetings
• Align support staff and schedules for the first six weeks back
• Communicate clear next steps to teachers and families

A small amount of planning now can prevent midyear backlogs, rushed decisions, and overwhelmed teams later.

January moves quickly. Preparation makes the difference.

If your campus needs support with evaluations, intervention planning, or consultation, AIM is ready to partner with you.

Today was one of those days that reminds us why community matters.

A few members of the AIM team spent time wrapping gifts for the Battered Women’s and Children’s Center. Small moments, lots of paper cuts, and a whole lot of heart. Each present represents safety, hope, and a reminder to these kids that they are seen and cared for.

Whether we work with families one on one or partner with schools and districts, this is at the core of what we do. Showing up, supporting children, and giving back beyond the classroom.

We’re proud of our team for taking time to spread a little extra kindness this season. Sometimes the most meaningful impact comes wrapped in paper and ribbon.

What happens in January often determines how smoothly the rest of the semester unfolds. For middle and high school students, this is when gaps show up, routines slip, and small issues quietly become big ones by spring.

Essential January prep means helping students reset expectations, rebuild academic routines after break, and strengthen the skills that support learning, time management, organization, and test readiness.

This is also the window to identify students who may need additional structure or targeted support before stress and burnout take over later in the semester.

If you have students who could benefit from structured academic or skill based support this semester, share aimeducate.com with families or connect with our team to explore support options.

Finals season brings out the best, the busiest, and the “running on caffeine and determination” version of every educator. While students are reviewing notes and tackling study guides, you’re the ones reteaching, reassuring, rewriting plans, and reminding them that they can do this.

To every teacher, counselor, interventionist, diagnostician, and campus leader supporting students through finals, thank you.

You steady the stress.
You translate the expectations.
You catch the details no one else sees.
You show up when it matters most.

Your work doesn’t just impact test scores. It shapes confidence, reduces anxiety, and helps students finish the semester with momentum instead of overwhelm.

AIM is grateful for the countless hours you pour into preparing students for success, not just for finals, but for life.

Share this with an educator who deserves a “thank you” today. They might need it more than you know.

When an English learner is also struggling academically, determining the root cause can feel complex. In Texas, the intersection of ESL and SPED requires careful collaboration and accurate evaluation practices.

Getting it right matters. It prevents misidentification and ensures students receive services that truly match their needs.

Key insights for Texas educators:

Language difference is not a disability.
Difficulties tied to English acquisition, such as vocabulary gaps or slower reading fluency, do not automatically indicate a disability.

Eligibility decisions must consider both language and disability factors.
Texas guidance is clear. Teams must determine whether challenges stem primarily from limited English proficiency or whether a disability exists across all languages a student uses.

Evaluations must be linguistically and culturally appropriate.
Assessment tools, interviews, and progress data must reflect the student’s dominant language, educational background, and language development profile. No single measure is enough to determine need.

ESL and SPED services can and often should coexist.
English learners who qualify for Special Education continue to receive ESL supports. These services complement each other and address different needs.

LPAC and ARD collaboration is required in Texas.
LPAC must participate in SPED decisions involving English learners, including determining assessment participation and accommodations aligned with TELPAS and STAAR requirements.
Clear systems, strong communication, and accurate evaluations help campuses avoid over- and under-identification while giving students the support that aligns with their unique profiles.

If your campus needs clearer systems, stronger LPAC–ARD alignment, or support navigating ESL–SPED referrals, our team can help you build a process that protects students and empowers staff. Connect with AIM at aimeducate.com to get started.

…yet their impact quietly shapes campuses every single day.

From special education teams to testing coordination to district leadership, their presence brings balance, perspective, and a steady sense of calm in the chaos.

We see the mentors who build confidence in students who rarely hear “I believe in you.”

We see the diagnosticians and coordinators who bring clarity to families during confusing seasons.

We see the teachers, coaches, counselors, and campus leaders who model patience, problem solving, and professionalism for the next generation.

Education needs more of this.
More representation. More voices. More men willing to step into roles that change lives.

At AIM, we are grateful for every man who chooses this path and strengthens our schools with empathy, skill, and dedication.

Your work matters more than you know.
