Upcoming Events at AMS - April 2010

April is proving to be a busy month! To help you keep the many school-related events straight, we’ve organized a listing of upcoming events.

• April 1 -- AMS Open House: Help spread the word about AMS! Encourage interested friends or colleagues to tour the school and talk with teachers. The Open House runs from 6:30 to 8:00 pm.
• April 9 – Meet the Executive Director Candidates: Here’s your opportunity to meet the two finalists for the executive director position. This is a critical decision for our school, and we are hoping as many parents as possible can come out, talk with the candidates, and provide feedback for board consideration. The event runs from 5:30 to 7:00 pm. See the attached flyer for more details. An RSVP sheet will soon be available outside your children’s classrooms.
• April 10 – AMS Spring Carnival: The teachers (and Kelly!) are hard at work planning fun-filled activities for this year’s AMS Spring Carnival. Please join us for an afternoon of games, face painting, and of course…prizes! This free event is open to the entire Anchorage community and will run from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm. Food will be available for purchase in the big room.
• April 24 – Heart Run: Join fellow AMS students and parents in this year’s Heart Run event, benefiting the American Heart Association. Runners or walkers (including kids!) are welcome to join “Team AMS”. We are also hoping to organize a cheering squad to support our race participants (young and old!) as they cross the finish line. More details coming soon…for now, please save the date!
• April 30 – In-Service Day: There will be no school on the last day of April; it’s an in-service day for teachers.
