Howdy AMP families and students, The following are important events and happenings for the week of September 14th. Upcoming Events this Week
Phase 1 - NEISD School Phase-In Plan NEISD will be continuing the second week of Phase 1 of its school phase-in plan this week. Phase 2 of the plan is scheduled to begin the week of September 21st. As we are re-opening the campus to students, we do have some updates and reminders to share with those students that are on campus during Phase 1:
2020-2021 James Madison FFA Dues - 52% Paid! A reminder that the $20.00 FFA membership fee for the 2020-2021 school year was posted to student accounts on August 24, 2020 via the NEISD School Cash Online app. If you have not done so, parents/guardians will need to register with NEISD School Cash Online to pay this fee. AMP students that have already made a payment of FFA dues prior to August 24, 2020 will not see a FFA membership fee posted to their student account. As of last week, we have reached 52% of our AMP student body that has paid their membership fee! That is a great start on our way to reaching 100%. FFA T-Shirt Sponsorship The James Madison FFA is looking for t-shirt sponsors for our annual "chapter shirt". Our chapter shirts help to unite our members and build community, camaraderie, and pride amongst our members no matter the level of their involvement. Sponsoring this year's chapter shirt will get your business or family logo on the back of nearly 600 shirts worn by James Madison FFA members. For more information about this opportunity, please download the sponsorship information form attached to this post.

Scholarship Opportunities Texas Hill Country Wineries (THCW) Scholarship Approximately 6 years ago, THCW noticed a need for more support introducing and educating our local communities about the Texas wine industry and encouraging new individuals to get involved. The Texas Hill Country Wine Industry Scholarship fund was created in 2016 in hopes to give High School and College students the opportunity to receive the education needed to join the Texas wine industry. In our first year, $5,000.00 was awarded to recipients studying viticulture, enology and WSET certification. 2017 gave us the opportunity to award $11,000.00 to 12 Texas students, 2018 gave us the opportunity to award another $10,000.00 to 9 Texas students and 2019 gave us the opportunity to award another $12,500 to 9 Texas students enrolled at Texas A&M University, Texas Tech University and Texas State University. Please see the attached scholarship application packet which includes 4 sections:
