For student safety, any student that is brought to the front of the school after the back car line closes at 8 AM must be brought into the building by an adult and signed in at the front office. After being signed in by an adult, students will be given a pass to class.

Morning Car Rider Line

• Drop off does not begin until 7:30. Please do not allow students to get out of the vehicle until Coach Brown and Coach Cagle start the morning arrival procedure.
• Students need to be ready to exit the vehicle when you pull up to Coach Brown and Coach Cagle
• When you enter the car rider line, pull in to the lane you need to be in when it is time for you to pull on to Sparkman Drive (changing lanes after drop off delays the car rider line process).
• Do NOT drop off children in the parking lot and allow them to run or walk across the parking lot to the crosswalk!

Afternoon Car Rider Line

• Please pay attention to the line and make sure you keep moving when it is time to move.
• If you have a child who needs help being buckled in, please pull all the way up to the cones and buckle them in there.

All lost and found items will be in the front office from Monday, March 31 - Friday, April 4. If your child is missing items, please come to the office to find and reclaim them! Items not reclaimed by the end of the day Friday will be donated.

Visit the middle school minute for updates specific to middle school students from your teachers.

Our school wide goal for attendance is 98% present each and every school day. Every day counts! Please plan appointments early enough that your student can be checked in by 11:30 or later in the day so that they can be in school until at least 11:30 in order to avoid being counted absent.

Form attendance excuses were sent home last week for you to use if your child is absent and needs a parent excuse. A blank copy is attached below. You do not have to use this excuse, but we hopes it makes providing excuses a little easier! Blank copies are also kept at the front office and you can fill them out when you come to drop your child off late or pick your child up early.

Do you ever think to yourself, "Man, I wish I had more AAA gear to wear!" as you're getting ready for school or community events? AAA now has a swag store! Visit the link to place your orders. The best part is by purchasing, you are supporting a AAA family business, and a percentage of sales comes back to AAA! If you have design ideas, please let administration know so we can share them with our designers. We are SO EXCITED to get our store off the ground!

Remember to wear your house shirt every Thursday! Middle school can wear their grade level color or AAA Middle t-shirt.

If you or someone you know would like to apply, visit www.huntsvillecityschools.org Magnet Programs page and complete the application. The application window closes April 8, 2025. If you have any questions, please reach out to Tyra Pickens, Magnet Program Curriculum Specialist for Huntsville City Schools at tyra.pickens@hsv-k12.org.

If you are interested in ordering Kite Day/Fun Day t-shirts, fill out the order form below or use the QR code. Paper order forms will come home Monday, April 24th. If you have questions, please contact Coach Cagle or Coach Brown.

#AAAParentMeeting #TestingSuccess #StrongerTogether

We’re excited to invite you to participate in the first-ever South Huntsville Art Walk & Chalk on Saturday, March 29th, from 10 AM to 2 PM at the South Huntsville Public Library! This sidewalk chalk art competition is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your artistic skills to the community while competing for cash prizes!

For just a $10 entry fee, you’ll have the chance to win:
1st Place: $250
2nd Place: $100
3rd Place: $75

The event will provide chalk, but you’re welcome to bring your own. The theme is "Flower Power," and all entries must reflect this in their designs. The event will also feature food trucks and an amateur/kids' area, making it a fun and engaging day for all!

Kids that want to participate but not against the older kids or professional artists will have the opportunity to win: 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place ribbon.

This is a great way to gain exposure, share your creativity, and connect with fellow artists and art lovers in the South Huntsville community. Since this is our inaugural event, the hope is to make it an annual tradition, and we’d love for you to be part of it from the very beginning!

If you want to participate, please complete the form below.

View the video linked below to hear some of our middle school students sing it for you!
