No One Eats Alone Day!
Students in grades 5 and 6 planned a special day for all of our students from grades K-6 by arranging for everyone to have lunch and recess at the same time on Friday February 14th. Students were mixed into twenty multi-age groups. They sat together in the cafeteria getting to know one another and worked on small group activities. After lunch, they played together during recess and competed on an obstacle course in the gym with their team.
Global School Play Day!
Wednesday February 5th was Global School Play Day at AES. The purpose of this event is to support children in their social-emotional learning. Our students practiced teamwork, cooperation, problem-solving, conflict resolution, responsibility, and so much more through their day of play.

SIGNS OF SPRING?
It’s difficult to comprehend how much has happened in just one week. As you know, AES will be closed for the next two weeks as a preventative measure in an attempt to minimize the spread of COVID-19. I’m extremely proud of our students and staff in the way they have handled all of this uncertainty.
