Don't "miss" on Dismissal
It is an expectation that you actively monitor your students until they are dismissed. Please help us maintain a safe environment at AMS and address these concerns. Students that are out in the hallways when they are not supposed to be, will be walked back to their classrooms.
If you send a student out, please send that student with a pass. Remember! no restrooms during dismissal... 10 10 rule.
