LIVE E-Learning Day. AMS and AHS Schedule - Elementary Schedule


Two-hour delay, Thursday, Feb 13, 2025.


Good afternoon,
All after school activities have been cancelled this afternoon due to inclement weather conditions. This includes Carlin Park chess club, Carlin Park BASE camp, and Ryan Park after school child care. Thank you and please be safe.

ALL after-school activities have been cancelled today 2/12/2025 due to potential inclement weather this afternoon. Thank you! Be safe if you are out this evening!


Just a reminder that afterschool tutoring groups started today for some of our 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders from 3:00-4:30. You would have had to sign them up for them to attend. Each child riding home on a bus has a bus tag and knows which bus he/she rides.
Please be patient today as our wonderful bus drivers navigate their stops this afternoon.
If you are picking up your child, please pull up like normal in lot A or B.
If changes need to be made, we ask that you contact the school during the school day, as someone may not be available to take a message afterwards.
Thanks so much for your partnership!
