AMS Black Bear News
#AIMHIGH Vol. 10
Hello Black Bear Family!
Wow... ONE WEEK left! eLearning/Virtual School portion of the school year is nearing an end. Hang in there! You are on the "home stretch." Remember, you are not alone on this journey.
Please encourage your children should finish strong! All assignments must be completed and graded by Sunday, May 17. It is imperative that ALL assignments are completed, particularly, assignments given March 16-18. Our desire is that every student is promoted to the next grade level; however, the students must remain committed to engaging academically and do their best.
If you or your child have questions, please do not hesitate to call or email the teacher. Feel free to email me, if needed... anita.clarke@dcs.k12.al.us.
Remember, we are FOREVER FAMILY!!!
Love,
Anita A. Clarke
AMS is named a Blue Ribbon Lighthouse Schools of Excellence!
