If you're interested in swim team, come to the gym Sunday, May 18!
Today we held our first Kindergarten Shadow Day! The preschoolers joined the kindergarten class this morning and participated in various activities. They enjoyed some fun activities including calendar, alphabet Bingo, story time, played a fun game of Rock, Paper, Scissors Beat the Teacher Edition, and enjoyed their very first school lunch. They had a great morning and the kindergarten students felt pretty proud showing them the ropes! 🙂
We are excited for our new Kindergarten Pirates next year! 🏴☠️

Another ✔️ on the list for our seniors. This morning they did their Graduation walk through the halls. Then they opened their time capsule they made in 9th grade and Mrs. Haenfler brought them their letters they wrote to their future self in 6th grade. Their time at AHS is winding down!
Thanks to Sips and Bloom and a parent donation for treating our teachers to coffee this morning ❤️
As part of their final week of high school, the senior class took time to honor the educators who have made a lasting impact on their journey. The students read personal letters aloud to a teacher of their choice and gifted them with a lapel pin they picked out specifically for that teacher.
