News:
Anderson Mill has some talented artists.  Check out their work that was on display for the 2010 Round Rock ISD Elementary Art Exhibition.
 


WOW!!  Anderson Mill students collected over $3500 to donate to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation!  Amy Hyman from the JDRF came and spoke to students during PE class on January 27.  Students that chose to help collected donations for 2 weeks.  Ms. Hyman returned to count the money on February 10 as students did an Awareness Walk for Diabetes around the track.  The money collected will go to help scientists and researchers find a cure for Diabetes.  Thank you to ALL who helped with this project!  We are lucky to have such CARING IB students and teachers!



Congratulations to our Teacher of the Year, Alison Standlee and our Paraprofessional of the Year Solange Silva!  Thank you, ladies, for all you do to help our students be great IB Learners.
