Attention Parents/Guardians,
AGS Middle School is now offering Child Safe Kits for your family, through American Income Life.
We encourage each family to review the flyer, fill out, and return the reply card to their classroom in order to participate.
This kit is endorsed by the International Union of Police Associations and designed to be prepared in the case of a child going lost or missing. The kit is known to save law enforcement more than 90 minutes when it is filled out!
You will be receiving a flyer in your childβs backpack next Monday, October 21. If you are interested in receiving this kit, you can Click Here to view the LINK.
The kit has a place for your childβs personal information, photo, physical description, and fingerprints. This is something you will keep.
Flyers will be handed out in your child's 6th hour classroom. The 6th hour classroom with the highest participation will also receive a pizza party!
If you choose to fill out the flyer and request the kit, a representative from American Income will contact you to deliver the kit(s). For any questions, you can reach out directly to the AIL PR Representative, Jamie Beuschel at 616-275-2978.

Our AGS PTO No Fuss Fundraiser has begun! The PTO is asking for a one-time donation to support all the activities we provide to the AGS community. Similar to the past 3 years, if we meet our goals, we will not have any other fundraisers and won't be asking students to sell anything. We can't do this without your support.
The top earning student in each grade wins their choice of an iPad 10th generation wi-fi model OR a $300 Amazon gift card!
The top earning SRT class for each grade will get their choice of a pizza, donut, or ice cream party! Don't forget to enter your child's SRT teacher at the end of checkout.
A school wide prize of a springtime FIELD DAY will be earned if we reach our $12,000 goal!
New this year: if a business donates a minimum of $250 to your student, we will display their logo on a sponsor banner on the fence line in front of AGS! Add the business name during the checkout process.
Please note: this system is not set up to report winners by grade level, we will manually determine SRT class winners and winners per grade.
Thank you for supporting the AGS community!

The middle school health curriculum is delivered by PE/Health teachers in SRT class throughout the school year. This will begin in in the next couple of weeks and will continue until the end of the year. The teachers will teach approximately 4 lessons/units for 30 minutes during SRT. Attached below is a health letter that contains more information. Additionally, a health waiver form is attached. The waiver is only required for those who choose to OPT OUT of the district mandated health class. Students will receive a copy of the letter and waiver 2 weeks prior to taking health class. If you choose the OPT OUT option, please return the waiver before health class begins. You may print the form attached to this email and return it to the main office at any time or complete/return the form when your student receives it 2 weeks prior to class. There are also additional copies in the main office. We will be posting updates in the AGS NEWS, including a schedule of when the class will be taught in your child's SRT.
Please contact the main office (810 591 7700) with any questions. Thank you!

Below is the code to join PhotoCircle. You'll want to download the app & then request to join the group for this year's yearbook album where you may submit photos to be considered. The link is also posted in the comments for those who have issues with the posted link below.
Submission Guidelines: Please only add photos of AGS events, sports & activities. Please add a caption to each picture with a short description of what the picture is of & who the students are in the picture. PLEASE DO NOT ADD NON-AGS RELATED SPORTS & ACTIVITIES TO THE ALBUM. This causes many wasted hours to the yearbook design process when things such as youth sports, sleepovers & parties are added. Thank you!
Please email Ms. Fleury with any questions or concerns regarding the yearbook. mtodorovsky@fentonschools.org
Photo Circle Link: only click this link once you have downloaded the app.
