AHS PRINCIPAL UPDATE MR. JOHN KING

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!

While the fall semester was filled with so many different challenges related to COVID-19, our teachers, students, coaches, and directors have continued so many of the long-standing traditions that make Argyle High School one of the best in Texas.

Over the course of one month’s time, Argyle High School brought home two state championships and one state runner-up trophy. On December 14, our Marching Band competed in the Class 4A UIL State Marching Band Contest at the Alamodome in San Antonio and brought home the gold medal. Congratulations to Mr. Jason Bird, his staff, and his band on this historic win.

Later that same week on December 18, the Argyle football team capped off a perfect 16-0 season by winning its second state championship.

Our Eagles defeated Lindale 49-21 at AT&T Stadium for the Class 4A Division I title. Congratulations to Coach Rodgers, his staff, and his team on this amazing accomplishment.

Finally, on January 15, the AHS Cheer Squad brought home the silver medal at the Class 4A UIL Spirit Competition in Fort Worth. This was the highest finish for our competition cheer team in school history. Congratulations to Coach Truebenbach, Coach Lemish, and their cheer team on this history-making day.

The spring semester is always the busiest time of the year at the high school. Winter sports are winding down, and the playoffs are about to begin. Spring sports are just now getting underway. Our UIL Academic Teams have begun competitions and are looking forward to defending their crowns. STAAR tests and AP tests are just around the corner, as well. It will be a very busy semester, and it always seems to go by so fast.
