On behalf of the teachers and staff of AGMS, welcome to the 24-25 School Year! I hope all our AGMS families enjoyed a wonderful summer, and had an opportunity to slow down a bit, and make some memories. Here are some important upcoming dates:

Friday, August 16: Bus assignments will go out from our Transportation Department

Thursday, August 22 (4:00-7:00pm): AGMS Open House Students and parents are welcome to come in and see where student classrooms are, as well as get more familiar with the layout of the building. Teachers will not be here that evening, but it is a great way to get a "sneak peek" before the school year starts. Kona Ice will be here selling delicious treats!

Monday, August 26: First Day of School

Friday, August 30-Monday, September 2: No School for Labor Day holiday

Thursday, September 5: Back to School Night (6:30pm-8:30pm)

A recommended school supply list can be found on our website; it is also linked below. Teachers will provide class-specific recommendations the first week of school.

As part of our middle school philosophy, administrators and counselors team up to work with the same cohort of students during their three years with us. For this year:

6th Grade: Ms. Janice Lear (jlear@avongrove.org) and Mr. Sami Phelps (sphelps@avongrove.org)

7th Grade: Dr. Suzanne Magee (smagee@avongrove.org) and Mrs. Lisa Czaplicki (lczaplicki@avongrove.org)

8th Grade: Mr. Mark DeEmilio (mdeemilio1@avongrove.org) and Mrs. Kristi Milburn (kmilburn@avongrove.org)

Throughout the year, we will highlight the amazing learning happening within our walls. Student schedules are currently available in Power School; if you have any questions, please reach out to your child's counselor.

The AGMS Online Spirit Wear store is open! Check it out for great gear and to support your AGMS PTO.
