Welcome!!

    Sixth grade students recently attended Biz Town soon (Shout out to Junior Achievement)! This is always a favorite culminating activity. They recently completed a candygram sale as a philanthropic activity.
    Seventh grade students have experienced Duck Day, an instructional visit to Circle Hill Cemetery, and a learning excursion to the Auburn Cord-Duesenberg Museum. One class has partnered with a 3rd grade class at Fremont Ele-mentary to be pen pals and learning partners.
    Our eighth grade took advantage of Civil War Days. They are also planning a spirit week for the end of February to get our students excited about the March 1st Lock-In. The theme of this after-school dance and evening event is ―Candyland. This annual dance/Lock-In is a school wide philanthropic event that raises money to help students in need.
     The highlights from the Unified Arts team include: Mrs. Schlup’s A.M.S. Art Facebook page, the live Kettle-worx work out with a global leader in kettle bell training, Ryan Shanahan, Band concert, and the 8th grade Choir concert.     
    
     Earlier this year, we hosted our 13th annual Veterans Day breakfast and program. The Media Center involved students in the set up, sale, and tear down of our annual Book Fair. This enabled us to add 200 paperback books to our collection. Nearly 45 students are involved in two plays: The Audition and Anne-Arky. Tryouts and practices are taking place now. We want to thank Riley Peppler, A.H.S. student, for being our Yearbook Editor-in-Chief. She has volunteered her time to help organize and plan our yearbook layout. 
    Amazing things continue to take place at A.M.S. We look forward to this continuing in the second semester. A
