Meet Mrs. Yelle, Assistant Principal
Hello AGS Families! I am Megan Yelle, the new assistant principal at AGS. I am very excited to join the AGS Family and looking forward to meeting everyone soon. I am a veteran educator with twenty-four years of successful teaching and leading experience and an enthusiasm for kids and learning. I can't wait to share my abundant energy and excitement for learning with our AGS staff and students. I have an active family that I enjoy spending time with. My husband Matt and our three children Nataleigh, Kaidance, and Liam enjoy competing in sports, camping, boating, and having fun together. Enjoy the remainder of the summer and I will see you soon!
Sincerely,
Megan Yelle

AGS Office Addition
Construction on the new main office addition has begun. This week they will begin pouring concrete for new sidewalks leading up to the entrance of the main office. During this time, the entrance off of Shiawassee may be closed. There will be more details in the FAPS newsletter and on the FAPS website as the project continues. We are excited about improving the facility for our staff, students, and families.
