Decimal Art in 4th Grade




I had some students who were super excited to receive their invitation to the ice cream party for the Blue Stem Reading Challenge!


Our first Junior High Scholastic Bowl Meet was last night at Stephen Decatur Middle School and it went well! The Varsity team won 2 out 3 matches and the Junior Varsity had a good first experience. Our next meet is at Home on March 17.

Making fossils can be so much fun! We learned about cast, true form, trace, and mold fossils in 4th grade.





We are celebrating Reading Across America Week at AGS!


I ask the students every once in a while how many books they think are in their library. I get answers anywhere from 10 to 10,000! So since I began my job back in 2007. I was shocked see 5,000 books in the repor, with 731 added this year!! We will no doubt hit 1000 by May!


Today began our week long celebration of the Dr. Seuss Read Across America! AGS Library is ready!





Our 7th grade girls ended their volleyball season tonight in Regional play against Cumberland! Thank you for a great season Knights! You have been fun to watch!

Eating in the classroom with Miss L, because one of the boys got their Gold Badge for reading goals!


A great message from Coach Sowers to Miss Checkley’s second graders.
