Congratulations to our 1st and 2nd Grade Bulldog Heroes! #RISR #GoBulldogs
Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASPs) are coming up soon. Some students can become anxious in the weeks or days before testing but a little encouragement from adults around them can go a long way in helping students walk into testing days feeling confident. Confidence can have a huge effect on how students perform. Ask your child what they are doing in class and how confident they feel about their work. Offer praise to your child when they feel confident and encourage them to continue to be excited about their success with new concepts or skills. Similarly, if your child is telling you they are struggling with a concept, topic, or skills, point out the progress they are making and positively encourage them to continue working—never give up on your learning!
Reminder- Thursday, April 6th is a FULL DAY of school due to earlier weather interruptions. There is NO SCHOOL Friday, April 7th or Monday, April 10th.
Reminder- No School April 7th or 10th! Enjoy your time off!

The AHS Drama department will present "The Play That Goes Wrong" on Saturday, April 1st at 7:00 PM & Sunday, April 2nd at 4:00 PM in the Wilcox PAC. Cost is $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for students.
A note from Mr. Cater- With the 2 Hour Late Start on Thursday, March 23rd, our students are not on schedule to attend school the required 1080 hours. However, we only need to make a small adjustment to allow us to reach that number. On Thursday, April 6th, students will be dismissed at our normal dismissal times rather than one hour early as we posted on our original calendar.
Thanks you for your continued support and flexibility!
