Clubs

National Honor Society

The AEL Chapter of the National Honor Society is a service organization that rewards high-achieving students and provides opportunities for service in the school and community.

Chess Club

The games club is an opportunity for students to play brain-building games, such as chess, checkers and dominos.

My Brother’s Keeper

My Brother’s Keeper (MBK’s) work is rooted in six key life milestones that research shows are especially predictive of later success, and where interventions can have the greatest impact:

GETTING A HEALTHY START AND ENTERING SCHOOL READY TO LEARN
READING AT GRADE LEVEL BY THIRD GRADE
COMPLETING POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION OR TRAINING
SUCCESSFULLY ENTERING THE WORKFORCE
KEEPING KIDS ON TRACK AND GIVING THEM SECOND CHANCES

By focusing on these milestones, doing what works and removing or avoiding roadblocks that hinder progress, we can provide young people the opportunity and the tools to get ahead, and AEL’s Chapter of MBK is seeking to help our young men grow in character, resilience, leadership abilities and integrity.
