Parish Episcopal wasn’t ready to relinquish its reputation as the state’s private-school football powerhouse.

When the Panthers had their string of five consecutive TAPPS Division I championships snapped a year ago, it turns out that was merely a blip on the radar instead of a changing of the guard.

Parish reclaimed the top spot, 363 days later, with a 14-7 triumph over district rival Plano Prestonwood in a surprising defensive struggle on Dec. 5 in Waco.

The Panthers (12-1) came up with several big plays on both sides of the ball during a decisive fourth quarter to secure the win, including two big defensive stops in the last two minutes that proved to be the difference.

“Our defense has done such a great job this season and it’s only fitting that they came through with the game on the line,” Parish head coach Daniel Novakov said. “After losing in last year’s title game, I wanted to win this game so much for our seniors and our guys came through when it mattered most.”

Dallas ISD is redefining what excellence looks like in school counseling through a new districtwide framework designed to elevate the profession and ensure every student receives consistent, high-quality support.

The district recently introduced the School Counselor Excellence Instrument (SCEI), a detailed guide outlining best practices, performance standards, and growth pathways for school counselors. The initiative, district leaders say, strengthens the foundation for student support and sets a model for other districts to follow.

When Ainsley Buholz joined the Great Cycle Challenge USA in 2020, she was looking for an outlet from boredom brought on by the pandemic lockdown.

However, what started as a way to pass time, became a mission to connect to a cause bigger than herself.

With the Northaven Trail near her home, cycling became one of the few ways Ainsley could spend time outdoors during the COVID-19 outbreak. And when her mom, Stephanie, showed her a flyer for the Challenge, the young cyclist discovered how her pastime could raise money to to support the fight against childhood cancer.

A new study suggests that imagining how you might feel after skipping a flu shot might be key to actually getting one.

Primary author and SMU psychology professor Austin Baldwin and collaborators Catherine Rochefort and Alexander J. Rothman found that when college students wrote about why they might regret not getting the influenza vaccination, they were significantly more likely to follow through later.

At the heart of Baldwin’s research is a concept called anticipated regret — mentally jumping to the future to imagine skipping a behavior and how you might feel about the possible consequences.

Concussions should be taken seriously. But concerns about brain injuries don’t need to sideline athletes from the sports they love, experts told a standing-room-only crowd on Nov. 18 at Highland Park High School.

UT Southwestern Medical Center professors Dr. Jennifer Coughlin, who is director of molecular imaging in the psychiatry program, and Dr. C. Munro Cullum, who is vice chair and chief of the division of psychology in the department of psychiatry, unraveled mysteries of concussions during their presentation in the MAPS Makerspace
