April Scholar Athletes

Tom Gerber
Taylor High School senior Jennifer Nweke has
been named the Alief ISD April 2009 Female Athlete of the
Month. She has been a member of the Taylor Track team
for four years. Nweke has successfully qualified for the
Regional Track Meet for the last two years and will be
participating in the State Track Meet this year.
Coach Karen Hawkins says, “Not only does she know how to
rack up great numbers when she runs but Jennifer has maintained
an A average during all four years and her senior GPA is a 4.6.
Her cumulative GPA ranks her number 56 out of 528.” She looks
forward to continuing her education in college and would enjoy
participating in track.

Elsik High School senior Jamal Elam has been named the
Alief ISD April 2009 Male Athlete of the Month. He has
been swimming for the Elsik team for two years and “…he has shown
tremendous leadership qualities and a strong will to reach success,”
said Coach Ed Dickerson. Elam makes his grades in the classroom and
is a member of the Elsik band, therefore he does not have time for
an athletic period so he comes to workout in the pool for his
workout at 5:20 every morning, swimming 2,500 to 4,00 yards. He was
chosen “Most Valuable” male swimmer last spring and is the 2007-2008
“team captain.”
Elam maintains a positive and spirited attitude and is
more than willing to work with and help younger, inexperienced
swimmers become better and faster. He plans on continuing his
education and will keep swimming.

 Major Physical Fitness Announcement
In compliance with Senate Bill 530, all
grades 3-12
students in Texas must take the
FITNESSGRAM
fitness assessment. This is the
first year that all Texas school districts must meet this
requirement.
The assessment is not based on athletic ability, but on
good health. The assessment will include measurements of aerobic
capacity, strength, endurance, flexibility and body composition.
This is not a “pass or fail” test. FITNESSGRAM is
a tool to help determine needs and serve as a guide for planning
a personalized physical activity program. The test will not
affect grades in any way.
The information gathered will be sent to the Texas
Education Agency, which will release a report with District and
campus results. No individual scores will be made public, but
scores will be available to parents who file a written request.
Alief Independent School District believes that
providing health-related fitness information will lead toward a
healthier lifestyle. A healthy student is better prepared to
learn and perform, in all aspects of life.
Contact the physical education teacher on your campus,
or go to
http://www.fitnessgram.net/texas
for more information.
