Constitution Day is observed each year on September 17th and today AES honored that by singing songs and learning about the Constitution. Here are a few pictures of activities that our students participated in today.










International Dot Day was September 15th and we celebrated today by doing activities in all the classrooms, wearing dots, and gathering together to listen to The Dot by Peter Reynolds. We also had a visit from our School Resource Officer Willy King who walked around at lunch and talked to our kids. It was an exciting day at AES!






The forecast through Thursday calls for very warm weather. Please make sure your student is dressed appropriately and brings a water bottle each day.

Before starting Pre-K or Kindergarten, practice eating a packed lunch, opening containers and snacks, and using a water bottle! Fostering independence is a great way to get students prepared for school!
