Weekly Wellness Update
AMS is focused on building the social/emotional skills of our students. This week the students participated in an assembly centered around our AMS SOAR goal of “Success”. Students were encouraged to work toward being successful in their daily lives and how that translates in their interactions with others.
Parents and guardians often ask how they can help their students be successful. Check out this article for tips on how:

What other ideas do you have that you can use toward building success with your child?
