We had a great week celebrating our AWESOME AGS Staff during Staff Appreciation Week! We appreciate them everyday, but enjoyed honoring their dedication and hard work this week. The weeklong celebration was kicked off on Monday with a Candy Cart from the principals, Tuesday the staff enjoyed breakfast from the AGS PTO, a Star Studded Lunch was provided by the PTO on Wednesday, a morning snack cart on Wednesday from the PTO, and Friday we wrapped up with Pizza and the annual AGS Staff T Shirt from the principals. The PTO also provided staff members with gift cards. A huge shout out to all of the PTO volunteers that made this week special for our staff.
