AMS Black Bear Express
#AIMHIGH Vol. 2
Hello Black Bear Families!
I would like to thank each of you for supporting our Open House and engaging in fun activities with our staff. It was an amazing night! Your support and involvement makes the difference in making Austin Middle School great! Please remember that you are welcome to contact our counselors to schedule a conference concerning your child's grades or any other concerns. We take pride in making our school a place that makes our families proud.
Austin Middle School faculty and staff are excited about the weeks and months to come. Please ask your child about his or her day...I am hopeful that each day is filled with challenging, yet memorable lessons that make learning a pleasure and not a chore.
Thank you for giving our staff an opportunity to serve your family!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Anita Clarke
