News From the Nest
Week November 2 - 6, 2020
Message from Principal Honohan
APS Family,
As always I appreciate all of the ways our parents and community members have stepped up to support the needs of our school family. Through my weekly newsletter, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook we try to share a snapshot of the innovation, learning and emotional support happening at APS. Many needs are confidential and kept close to protect students, families and staff. Thank you for trusting APS with your children and for your generosity giving back, so we can continue to thrive.
A huge shout out this week goes to our Falcon Fund donors who have donated so far this year. We are grateful for the families who are able to contribute to the Falcon Fund during these times. No financial gift is too small and can be deducted monthly through the Foundation of OCPS. Your tax deductible contributions to the Falcon Fund are going to allow APS to Accelerate above and beyond my school budget.
From our amazing fish and wildlife tanks to software licenses and training to state of the art Flexible Leaning Spaces, the Falcon Fund provides support so 100% of your gift will be used in meaningful ways to benefit all students and teachers. To contribute please visit foundationforocps.org/APSFalconFund.
The Falcon Fund Board is currently seeking hosts for small group adult connection gatherings of 20 people or less. We want to get to know each other in casual and safe settings. If you are interested in hosting, please reply to this email.
Thank you for your continued support!
Trevor Honohan

The Falcon Fund needs your support!
The Falcon Fund is getting started on the first Flexible Learning Space but we NEED YOUR SUPPORT in order to complete all FIVE learning space areas at APS. These spaces will be transformed to create separate areas for small group learning, brainstorming sessions and simulate higher education environments. Our goal is to raise $50K and have all Flexible Learning Spaces complete by May 2020. Help continue to ELEVATE our APS students and teachers by supporting your Falcon Fund!

We will be collecting non-perishable food items to help ensure that families in our school have what they need throughout the upcoming holiday season. Each grade will be assigned a specific item to donate. Donation bins will be located at the front office as well as in the collaboration spaces on every floor.
This year we are also offering additional convenient ways to give. You may visit https://apsk8ptsa.new.memberhub.store/store and click on the donate links. You may also choose to donate a whole basket and sponsor a family for $35.
