Got a pretty high score today. I had a score higher and accidentally bumped the computer and it restarted before I could get the picture, Ahhhh!


Pull on your cape and mask-It’s National Superhero Day! To honor all the superheroes in our lives, both fictional and real-life, choose one of the activities listed and share a photo.
1. Dress as a Superhero and create an identity and super power.
2. Draw a picture and write about your favorite superhero, real or fictional.
3. Write a letter to someone you think is a hero and thank them for being so amazing.
4. Be a hero to someone else and do something kind for someone. Tell us about it.

Monday, April 27!! The sun is shining (for now) and the Quickslither score is ready to be beat.


We are ready for distribution! Food and packets this morning from 9-11 for those that pre ordered food. Packet distribution from 3-5! Don’t forget to bring back completed work!


In April 1828—Noah Webster published the first American dictionary. For today’s challenge we want you to invent a new word and tell us the definition of it!!! We can't wait to see your new words!!



Good Afternoon Atwood-Hammond Grade School families. Meal distribution will be Monday, April 27 from 9-11 am. If you are picking up meals during that time we will continue to put your updated learning packets in with your meals. When you come to pick up meals please bring your child’s completed work. Teachers are basing the pass and incomplete grade on the completion of these work packets so it is extremely important that your child does this work. Work will be returned for students to complete if it was turned in not finished. If you are not picking up meals we ask that you come get your child’s updated learning packets and return completed work anytime from 3-5 pm on Monday, April 27. If you can place your child’s completed work in some sort of bag with their name, grade, and homeroom teacher on the front that would be wonderful.
Remember, both procedures will be run as a drive through. We ask that you come into the East parking lot. A staff member will be out there to “check” you in and we will bring materials to your car. In order to practice social distancing we ask that you just open your trunk and we will place materials in the trunk. If we cannot get into your trunk we can place things in the backseat or hand them to you through the window. Please have your child’s completed work in a bag in the trunk or ready to hand through the window as well. We will make sure it gets to the correct teacher. This helps ensure that when we deliver the meals and/or updated packets we can retrieve the completed work without making physical contact as well.

Dear 8th Grade Parents,
We appreciate the patience with us as we are working our way through this pandemic. We are currently planning an event to recognize the accomplishments of our 8th grade students. Please make sure you are checking your email. We will be communicating details with you as soon as they are confirmed.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Sage Hall, AGS Principal
Mrs. Kristin Nall, AHGS Principal
Mr. Brandon Stone, LGS Principal
