Real People. Real Stories: The Faces of AACPS

What is the Faces of AACPS?

Stories are one of the most powerful tools we have for building relationships and connecting with each other. When we share our experience, we help others understand who we are and what we value. In AACPS, these experiences often celebrate opportunities our students, families, and staff have at their schools and recognize the teachers, colleagues, and community partners who make those opportunities possible.

The Faces of AACPS is an online, storytelling platform that gives our AACPS community the space to share positive experiences. From writing a quick note to thank a teacher to sharing a life-changing experience in high school, any experience can become a story and every story is worth sharing.

If you can't start with you, then pass it on to the next person and let them make the change.

Just take it one minute and one second at a time.

2023 Rising Star at Broadneck High – Tyrice Brown

It has to be personal. It has to be something that you personally resonate with, because there's no generic answer. So if you have it in you and you feel the slightest bud that this is what you wanna do, water it, give it some some sun and go with it.

2023 Rising Star at Tracey’s Elementary – Dalen Parker

My third grade teacher, shout out to Ms. Mandy Brew. She has stuck with me since I was in 3rd grade. She went to my high school graduation. She saw me go through college, and she’s always been that teacher.

2023 Rising Star at Edgewater Elementary – Brandon Woodroffe

Unless people like you care and awful lot of things won't change.
