April 7th AMSHS Weekly Update
Building independent lifelong learners.
Principal's Corner
Last semester students were informed about the Food Truck Party on May 4th. Students who are academically eligible, have no more than 7 unexcused absences, and have not been to ISS or OSS 2nd Semester are eligible to attend.
We will go to Silas Park where we currently have 4 food trucks scheduled to set up and serve to students. Students can play outdoor games, listen to music, hang with friends, and enjoy the sun! Money for food trucks is not provided. There will be a flyer and more information on this coming soon!
Congratulations to Ms. Jensen, our staff member of the week! A staff member wrote, “Ms. Jensen put thought into promoting the school track program and suggested taking the entire middle school to home track meets. She expressed that her goal was to get more interest in track from younger students to help grow the JH and HS programs.”

Important Information About Student Academics
Per our handbook policy, students who are not eligible are not allowed to attend any extracurricular activities or functions. Ineligible students may attend practice but cannot dress out for games. If you have any questions, please contact your child's teacher, coach, or the office.
Each student is allotted 7 days to be absent each semester without a doctor's note. If your child is absent, please contact the office and bring a doctors note upon return so their absence is excused and not counted towards these 7 days. If your child has more than 7 unexcused absences, they will need to attend Monday school to receive semester credit.
Students receive independent reading time daily in class so we have decided to incorporate the AR program into your child's classroom grade. Each teacher has a plan on how this will be accomplished. This information was shared with students. If you have any questions, please contact your child's teacher.
Students who have more than 3 missing assignments could serve lunch detention so they can work on missing assignments.
The handbook policy states students may have 7 absences per semester. Please make sure you turn in doctor's notes to the office. Monday school notes went home this week with students. Monday school is by appointment only. If your child needs to schedule a session, please call the office.
Per our handbook policy, after the 6th tardy, students will serve an after school detention. Please see the disciplinary section of the handbook for more information about our tardy policy.
