(Pictures Part: 2)








Double the celebration for some AES students today! Huge rounds of applause for our December stars who showed the Character Strong trait of Empathy, and our January little Rockets who demonstrated Perseverance. Our Friday mornings at the high school are always brighter thanks to Fist Bump Fridays with our favorite little visitors. They truly bring the best energy to our students! (Pictures Part:1)
