Greetings AMA Families! Greetings AMA Families!

September 25, 2026

We hope this has been a wonderful week for everyone! Special thanks to all the parents who attended our first Lunch & Learn session this week! We truly enjoyed collaborating with all of you and look forward to our other sessions this school year.


Next week we are wrapping up any make-up tests from our Fall NWEA MAP testing session. Score reports will be sent home with students along with their first progress report on Thursday, October 15th. Want to know more about this test and how to understand your child's score? See the family guide pictured and linked below.


In Partnership,

Andrea Curd, Early Elementary Principal

Melissa Lloyd, Upper Campus Principal
