Good Afternoon Families,
Today, at 12:30 pm, the site administration noticed a house fire on 12th and F Street. They immediately notified APD and the fire department. Emergency units are on scene addressing the fire. Some smoke from the fire has blown in the direction of the school, so students have access to indoor spaces during lunch time while the fire department addresses the issue. The students are safe, and we are grateful for the fast action of our site administration. Our hearts go out to the family affected by the fire. Should you have any questions, please contact the school office.
Our Middle Schoolers had quite a treat this morning! Mrs. Emery brought the Antioch High School Band to play at AMS this morning! What a great way to start the week!
