Quick Reminder: AGS Morning Drop-Off/Arrival Time (7:30 AM)
Dear AGS Families,
As we jump into the school year, we wanted to send a friendly reminder regarding morning arrival. For the safety of all our students, please ensure children are not dropped off or arriving before 7:30 AM.
Because staff supervision is not available until 7:30 AM, students arriving earlier are left unattended. Thank you so much for your support and cooperation in keeping our school grounds safe for everyone!
AGS is "Chasing the Dream Wildcat Style" this school year~
We would like to introduce Whiskers, the AGS Wildcat!
Family Pods voted on the name last year and 8th graders competed in a relay race to earn the right to do the name reveal.
At AGS we believe in ourselves. We overcome challenges. We dream big. We work hard. We make this school GREAT!
