Good afternoon! Just a quick reminder that Spring Picture Day is Coming! We will be sending reminders home with your students today, March 24th. On April 8th we will take both individual and group photos. Order forms will be distributed as the date nears. During group photos students will be unmasked and in close proximity with other students. If you would like for your student to not participate in group photos, or prefer they continue to wear their mask, that is absolutely acceptable. Have a great day! -Mr. Gray
Loving the graffiti that appeared on the sidewalk today!
The AMS Library has kicked off their third year of "Blind Date with a Book" this week. On Monday, we had 50 "dates" set up for students. Over the past few days we have had 55 students participate! We have already given goodies to 6 students. Every student who participates and turns their bookmark back in will get some goodies! There are just a few books left!
Students have lost their minds for science in Mrs. Hutchinson's class! They are trying to catch milkweed fluff that has escaped from their microscope slides!
We have kicked off another youth archery season! Archery is a great skill for our Mustangs. It promotes goal setting, growth mindset, concentration, fine motor skills, and sportsmanship! Archery even strengthens real-life understanding of physical science! #MCR1Pride
We are thrilled to announce that free breakfast, lunch, and the after school meal will continue through the end of the school year! We are delighted to partner with OPAA and the USDA to bring this great program to our Mustangs!

Due to the inclement weather, we will not have in person school tomorrow, December 14th, in McDonald County R1 schools. AMS students are expected to log into their Google Classroom at home and complete assignments. Be sure to email your teachers if you have questions or need help. Stay safe and have a great Monday Redbirds!!
