AMS Weekly Update
Monday, January 6-Friday, January 10, 2025
Dear Adams Families,
Happy New Year! We hope you had a restful and enjoyable Winter Break, and we’re excited to see everyone back in the building, ready to start 2025 strong.
As we return, it’s important to note that we only have two weeks remaining in the first semester. The semester concludes on Friday, January 17. This is a perfect time to check in on grades and missing assignments. Use these final weeks to get caught up and finish the semester on a positive note. Remember, a strong finish can make a big difference!
Let’s make these next two weeks focused, productive, and filled with success. As always, if you need support, don’t hesitate to reach out to your teachers, counselors, or administrators, we’re here to help.
Let’s make it a great start to the new year!
Go Adams!
Warmest wishes,
Mrs. Bukosky and Mrs. Abbott

Bus Cancellations
If your child's bus is canceled, please make sure to inform the school by calling the attendance line or speaking with our counseling secretary Mrs. Chene. Let them know that the absence is due to a bus cancellation. The secretary will mark your child's attendance with a "B" for bus cancellation, which will not count against them for truancy purposes.
