AMJHS students got the chance to step inside the Mobile Museum of Tolerance for an unforgettable Civil Rights lesson. Instructor Brian started things off with a real talk about what tolerance means—not just in society, but in our everyday lives and relationships.
The conversation grew into a powerful discussion about identity and culture, and how those shape the way we see the world and treat others. Students opened up, shared their thoughts, and explored ways to speak up for themselves and others—always with peace and purpose.

Before spring recess, Project CKC (Clothing Kills Cancer) appeared on Daytime Buffalo to share their powerful mission—and shine a spotlight on a new partnership with Making Memories.
We’re proud to share that Brayden Powell, a student from Aaron Mossell JHS, was featured on the segment as a Project CKC Brand Ambassador Brayden who brings fresh ideas for T-shirt designs and used his voice to amplify the mission of this incredible nonprofit. Watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=CT1lCPtb0sc.
Project CKC is dedicated to supporting cancer patients and their families by easing financial stress related to medical bills and prescription costs. Their work is a reminder that compassion and community can make a difference.

Ben Brindise, Author and Spoken Word Poet, recently gave a workshop at Aaron Mossell Junior High, where students learned about, created and performed spoken word poems. Thank you to Arts for Learning WNY and Just Buffalo Literacy Center for giving our students this opportunity!





🦁💙 Embrace our differences and support each other.
Every student brings something unique to our classrooms—different strengths, perspectives, and ways of learning. That’s what makes our schools strong.
When we take the time to understand and uplift one another, we create a community where everyone belongs and everyone can succeed.
#WeAreLions #NeurodiversityAwareness


Aaron Mossel JHS students in Mr. Schmidt's Social Studies class visited the AMJH library for a Lewis & Clark Escape Room experience. Students used notes and what they learned to solve 5 clues related to the Lewis and Clark Expedition.

Small actions can make a big difference.
Whether it’s offering a quiet space, rethinking how we give instructions, or simply showing patience—these everyday choices help create a school where every student, including those who are neurodivergent, can thrive. 💙💛
Let’s keep celebrating the unique ways our students learn, grow, and succeed—because inclusion isn’t one big gesture, it’s a series of small, intentional ones. #NeurodiversityAwareness
