On Saturday, February 6, get outside and support APS by participating in our Virtual Park Life Falcon 5K! You pick the route and if you're not quite ready for 3.1 miles at once, pick a distance for you and your family to do together. You'll have a whole week to log your steps.
Since this will be the APS PTSA's only fundraiser for the 2020-2021 school year, we are adding an exciting sponsorship component for the event. If your student chooses to participate, all proceeds raised will help create an amazing Staff Appreciation Week in March. Be on the lookout for an email on how your child can fundraise once you've registered.
We appreciate your continued support and generosity. And a huge THANK YOU to our sponsors for your support!

Thank you Park Life Falcon 5K Sponsors!
Thank you Falcon Fund Donors!
The Falcon Fund is SO THANKFUL for our end of the year donors! With these gifts, along with some anonymous donations, we have raised over $53,000 as a Falcon family this school year. Investing in our children and our school has never been more important than now and we are so grateful for the most supportive and generous community.
We are still working on the finishing touches of our first FLEXIBLE LEARNING SPACE! Thank you to our donors for making this happen AND for allowing us to already place a second order for the next Flexible Learning Space.
Thank you to Mathnasium Winter Park for partnering and working with APS students and teachers!
