Greetings #AHE-mazing Jaguar Families!
I hope you are staying warm! I am happy to be back in school with our Jaguars and staff! While the time away from our building last week was unexpected, we hope your child was able to engage in meaningful learning activities at home. We welcomed the day returning to our routines and structure.
Last semester, I worked to streamline our school newsletter to make it more family-friendly. I hope you have noticed the difference, and I will continue to work on it. This newsletter has a lot of important information, so thank you for taking the time to read it!
In this newsletter, you will find information about the Kids Heart Challenge! If at least 50% of our school registers online, both Coach Andrews and I have agreed to get silly stringed!
Thank you for your flexibility with Strategies Nights. I have attached our Strategies Presentations so that you are able to view any of the strategies you would like to see! Embedded in the presentation document is a QR code to seek feedback on the presentation format. Should you have any difficulties with a link, please contact your child's teacher.
Finally, I believe in our school motto - Together, We Make a Difference! I am seeking input on what parental involvement means to you to create additional or new opportunities for ALL families to feel involved. Please scan the QR code to the side and take 3 minutes to fill out the form!
Thank you!
Jill Osmerg
Sweetheart Dance:
This year's dance will be on February 8th from 5-8pm in the cafeteria. Get your tickets early as we sold out the last couple of years. Each student can bring ONE adult sweetheart of their choice.
Tickets are $30 and that gives each student plus the adult of their choice entry to the dance and a dinner buffet. The night will be full of fun, food and dancing! Don't miss this great opportunity to spend a fun evening with your students. Additional student tickets will be available for $10 for any adult bringing more than one child. You must have a combo $30 ticket to purchase this.
Please note, each student is only allowed to bring one adult. This event is only for AHES students.

As we approach Valentine’s Day, it is important to ensure that all homemade candy, desserts, baked goods, or other edible items are not to be sold or distributed during school hours. We are allowing appropriate store-bought items to be shared. All items will need to be approved prior to the exchange. Please know that taking this measure will help us maintain a safe environment for all students with allergies, etc. You can help us protect your student(s) by requesting that they not eat anything not in its original sealed package and please be reminded that some students in your child’s class may have specific allergies. Your child’s teacher will follow up with more information.
