“Employees appreciate what<br />
is being done to keep them<br />
engaged <strong>and</strong> mindful at work.<br />
It’s always exciting to hear about<br />
the success someone has had,<br />
whether it be losing weight,<br />
eating healthier, seeing normal<br />
blood sugar <strong>and</strong> cholesterol<br />
ranges or even maintaining their<br />
budget each month.”<br />
Kourtney Martin ’15, tx.ag/kmartin<br />
“Engineering brings math <strong>and</strong> science<br />
closer to the lives of young people. We<br />
want them to see their world through<br />
the eyes of addressing significant<br />
problems <strong>and</strong> concerns.”<br />
MICHAEL DE MIRANDA, TX.AG/STEMTEACHERS<br />

“We’ve seen families struggle in<br />
the beginning. When we see the<br />
video of them closer to the end, it’s<br />
beautiful. It looks natural. The child<br />
is responding to the parent <strong>and</strong><br />
communicating better.”<br />

“WE ASK STUDENTS TO CHALLENGE THEMSELVES,<br />
TO THINK DIFFERENTLY, TO PUT THEMSELVES IN<br />
PLACES OF DISCOMFORT, AND LEAN INTO THAT<br />
SO THEY CAN LEARN MORE. WE WANT THEM TO<br />
LEAVE DIFFERENT THAN WHEN THEY CAME.”<br />
Dr. Krista Bailey, SAAHE Director
