Kappa Alpha Psi Visits Austin

 On January 8th the brothers of Kappa Alpha Psi were present to greet our teachers on their first day back by providing them with a hot breakfast and drinks. On January 9th

the brothers of Kappa Alpha Psi Men's Fraternity were on hand again at Austin Middle School to welcome the scholars back to school for the second semester. They stated that they are men of action and want to support their community to help motivate and inspire scholars to do their best. One of the members spoke and encouraged the scholars to work hard, remember the three C's (Choice, Chance & Consequence), He also shared an acronym with the scholars, the word ROLL (Respect, Observe, Listen and Learn).  The scholars were excited to see them and thanked them for their support. This semester at Austin we are focusing on more positive behavior, student academic success and finishing the year off strong.  Thank you Kappa Alpha Psi for choosing Austin as a point of focus and pouring into our teachers and scholars.
