Waking from hibernation in the Spring, Frog and Toad plant gardens, swim, rake leaves, go sledding and learn life lessons along the way. The two best friends celebrate and rejoice in the differences that make them unique and special. Part vaudeville, part make believe... all charm, A Year with Frog and Toad tells the story of a friendship that endures throughout the seasons.

The AFSA K-8 is hosting a Winter Carnival on January 28th and an online Silent Auction which will be live for approximately 1 week prior to the carnival.
We are currently seeking donations for our silent auction. If you, or someone you know, is willing to donate something for the silent auction, please fill out the google form and one of our Winter Carnival Committee members will get back to you! Donations could range from a few dollars to help us put together a great gift basket, donations from businesses that you own or have an inside connection with, a donated weekend at your family cabin, or even a great gift basket that you want to sponsor yourself!
Once we have all of our donations compiled, we will send out the link for the online Silent Auction so that you can see what awesome things we have and start bidding on something great for yourself! The best part is that you can share the link with friends and family across the world and they too can bid on some great items to support AFSA K-8. Funds will be used to help cover the expense of field trips and exploratory learning, which is a huge part of what makes AFSA such an amazing place to learn and grow.
Thank you so much for your time, attention and dedication to making AFSA great!
