Students with perfect attendance this week were entered into a drawing for a chance to Cruise with a Cop! Congratulations to our winners: Serenity Spears, Lucas Payton, and Ever Blankenship! 🎉 Officer Blackman took our lucky winners on a cruise around campus… blue lights, sirens, off-roading and all! 🚔🚨 These students agreed on one thing: Ms. Callaway needed to be handcuffed and put in the backseat! 🤣🚔 There was no hesitation! We’re still investigating what crime she committed😂 Thank you to Officer Blackman for making this fun for our students and helping us celebrate those who showed up EVERY DAY this week! You never know what might happen at AMS when you have perfect attendance! 👀

We are pleased to announce that Ms. Lee, Media Specialist, and Ms. McKinney, Technology Specialist, have been selected as our September EYE OF THE TIGER recipients! 🎉

We are so appreciative of their hard work, patience, and dedication to AMS! Thank you, Ms. Lee and Ms. McKinney, for all you do for our students and staff each day!

Great Locomotive Chase Festival
Student Talent Showcase!

Our 8th Grade ELA teachers dressed the part today as they introduced students to their new novel, The Crossover! Mrs. Creel got students moving with PE warm-ups, taught them what a basketball “crossover” actually is, and showed clips of some of the best NBA crossovers so students could build background knowledge before diving into the novel. Meanwhile, Mrs. Smith kept students engaged by handing out tickets for participation throughout class. At the end of the lesson, students got to cash in those tickets for chances to shoot a basketball into the crate! 🏀🎟️ This is what engaging instruction looks like—building background knowledge, getting students actively involved, and creating excitement about what they’re learning!
