Stories & Invitations

ATX116 is powered by the voices of our communities. This space is where we share:

Stories → Updates from across Austin ISD’s 116 schools, reflections on equity and history, and the lived experiences shaping our collective future.
Invitations → Opportunities to gather, learn, and take action together—whether that’s through community events, workshops, or campaigns.

We believe in building power through connection, community, and communication. Every story shared is part of a bigger movement, and every invitation is a step toward stronger schools and a stronger Austin.
