Think-Link Testing – Last week students in 1st-8th grade took computerized Think-Link tests in reading and math to determine prior knowledge of SAT 10 and national standards. You child’s teacher has the results of the tests if you are interested in seeing them. Students in K-8th will be tested again at the end of the semester and at the end of the school year.

 

AHSGE – Our high school students will be taking the high school grad exams each morning at Robertsdale High School next week. Please be sure that your child gets a good breakfast and plenty of sleep. Remember that the van leaves the AGCCA parking lot at 7:20 a.m.

 

Out of Pocket - Mrs. Lambert will not be in the office each morning (7:20-around 11:30) next week as she has to drive high school students to and from RHS for grad exams. If you have a problem or need assistance, please call the school and leave a message with Bonny. If you have a financial issue, please see Tina and she can assist you.

 

Fish Fry –Our “Drive By Fish Fry” is on Friday, October 9th from 4-6 p.m. These are $6 pre-sale tickets that include fried fish, baked beans, coleslaw, bread, and a dessert. Please sell your tickets! If you need more, call the office or write a note and we will send more home. Students get a free uniform pass for each 10 tickets that they sell! This is a PRE-ORDER ONLY sale.

 

 

Blood Drive – We are having a Blood Drive at the school from 11am – 4 pm if you would like to donate blood. You must be at least 110 lbs. and 17 years of age to donate. Our Middle and High School students are hosting this as part of their “Servitude Pillar” for service hours and need donors.

 

 

 Lunch Forms – This is a friendly reminder that we PRE-Order lunches. We take a count for the 2-3 week period and pay the cook in advance. We cannot be responsible for calling to see if your child wants lunches or pizza. The cook does not bring extras. If you miss the deadline we cannot accept your check or your order. Please help us with this problem.
