Bluejay Breakfast!

Today we celebrated some pretty special Bluejays! Their teachers nominated them for showing KINDNESS at AMS, and we loved getting to recognize them this morning at our first Bluejay Breakfast!

These students are making AMS a better place through the way they treat others, and we are so proud of them! Thank you for being great examples of what it means to be a Bluejay!

Next quarter, we’ll be celebrating students who show HELPFULNESS! We can’t wait to see all the ways our Bluejays are making a difference!
