“When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us,” stated Alexander Graham Bell American inventor and educator. 

This is important to all of us as we have a chance to begin a new semester here at A.M.S. Students were reminded on morning announcements that report cards would be distributed for the second nine weeks. We have completed one half of our school year.   All students were encouraged to consider if their best effort was offered during this first semester. If not, the time has come for change. Another door has opened. I encouraged students to seek assistance from a teacher if he or she needed help succeeding in the classroom. Our teachers are available prior to the school day, during lunch time as well as during homeroom at the end of the day. Additional opportunities are available at Study Tables on Tuesday and Thursday in the cafeteria until 4:00. Thank you, parents, for your support and guidance at home as your child “enters the open door.”
