Due to the increased number of shuttles that come in and out of AAMS, the yellow gates remain open during pick-up; however, vehicles are pulling up too close to drop-off locations. Please see the attached image for clarification on parking.
AAMS students dismiss at 2:55. HGS shuttles arrive around 3:20. AAHS shuttles arrive at 3:25. We ask that anyone picking up their students who ONLY ride an HGS or AAHS shuttle do not arrive before 3:10 to keep parking lot congestion to a minimum.
Thank you!
Congratulations to our 2025 Homecoming Court!

Mrs. Mason, our school counselor came to visit today. She will come once a month to meet with our class. She told us about her family and what she does as a school counselor. Then we played a game and decided of what the card said was something s a counselor does or doesn’t do. The class did a great job listening to her! We can’t wait for her to come back next month!
