President’s Message – June 4
Final PTSA Meeting – Thursday, June 5 at 6:30
Just 10 days until the final day of the school year! We are getting excited, but like our students we still have a few more projects to complete before the year is done.
- Please join for our final PTSA meeting of the 2018-19 school year this Thursday, June 6, at 6:30 PM.
- We need to approve our bylaws, finalize plans for Dragon Games and the 8th grade celebration, and talk about filling a few key positions for next year. Plus, if you have ideas for next year, this would be the time to start planning!
The PTSA is so grateful to the parents (and grandparents!) who gave generously of their time, talents and funds to give our students and teachers a more enjoyable school year!
We still have a few more needs and encourage you to help, especially if you have not had a chance to get involved this year. We have nearly 1000 students and need all hands on deck for our end of year activities!
Annual 8th Grade Uniform Return Day
On Friday, June 7, 8th grade students only are invited to donate their uniform clothing items (uniform-approved shirts, sweatshirts, pants, shorts and skirts) to the Dragon Closet for students to use next year. Items should be clean and free of holes/tears.

Help Support the Teacher’s Barbecue – June 13
Dragon Games will soon be upon us June 13. For the past few years we have used this opportunity to show our teachers a final token of appreciation with a barbecue. This can’t be done without parent support! so our teachers can enjoy a wonderful lunch during this very crazy fun filled day! If you are bringing a side dish, please write in comments what you are bringing! Use this link to sign up for donated items: Dragon Games Barbecue
Please drop non-perishables off on June 11 and perishables on June 13. The PTSA will be providing all the meat for the BBQ.
As always, thank you for your support and helping to make AMS the best it can be!
