All of our scheduled events (home and away) for this evening will take place as planned. This includes the Parent University at 6:30 in the High School Auditorium.
Let's go, Tiger Readers! If your child has already earned their Tiger Reader shirt, we would love to see them wear their shirt this week! Our Tigers are reading books they like, recording the books they've read, turning in the form weekly, and earning amazing prizes, such as books, a skating party, and a T-shirt! 🐅❤️📚 Keep reading, Tigers! #ReadOn!
Our students were engaged in collaborative efforts, showcasing their knowledge, working hard, problem-solving, discussing novels and vocabulary, and having fun!
Let it snow! Mrs. Goodman's PreK students have been immersed in exciting snow-inspired educational activities at different stations throughout the week. ☃️❄️

Happy Holidays! ☃️ We've enjoyed an outstanding week with our Tigers and it's only Thursday! 😀
ATTENDANCE TIP TUESDAY: Set your alarm clocks 30 minutes earlier for students who need more time to get ready before school. Good attendance starts at an early age. This helps them develop a positive view of school and the importance of attendance. That's why Alexandria Schools has been placing a renewed emphasis on the importance of attendance. For the next several weeks, we will bring you attendance tips on Tuesdays in which school is in session. We look forward to sharing more helpful tips with our families! #Class.First.First.Class.
Dear Parents and Guardians,
On December 19th at 6:30 in the AMES gym, we will be having a festive music program with our kindergarten and 1st grade students. Students have already learned the material in music class. Doors will open at 6:10, entering through the gym doors by the office.
Please have students wear festive colors (red, green, and/or white). Once students arrive, they will sit with their class until it is their turn to perform. Kindergarten will perform first, and 1st grade will perform second. We do ask that all families stay for the entire performance for both grades, both to show respect for other families and performers, and to allow students enjoy seeing others perform! Kindergarteners will remain with their class after performing. Parents can come meet their students after both groups have finished performing and have safely left the risers.
I am SO proud of all of our students as they have worked on this material. They have been doing an amazing job in music! 🎶 Mrs. L, AMES Music Teacher
🎶 Our PreK Students spread holiday cheer during their PreK Very Merry Christmas Program! Our little Tigers delivered an outstanding performance!There was even a special guest that stopped by from the North Pole.Thank you to our PreK families, Mrs. Goodman, Miss French & Mrs. L.

Wow! Big shoutout to our AMES Student Council and Mrs. Howell for their generous donation to the Make-A-Wish Foundation! They were even featured on ZPL, The Smiley Show. It was an unforgettable experience as our student council had the chance to meet Elsa and the amazing police officers who were also highlighted on the show. Way to make a difference! #Community #MakeAWish #AMESSpirit
