Announcements:

  • If you have not yet had a student-led conference with your child’s teacher, he or she will be reaching out to schedule a time to meet with you.  Mid-year conferences are an important time to reflect on your child’s progress and set goals for the second half of the school year.
  • Playground Update: Our playground committee is working hard to develop an outdoor play space for our scholars.  On March 15th, Pizzeria Locale (on 75th St in Waldo) is sponsoring an AFIA fundraising night from 4-9PM.  AFIA receives 50% of the proceeds on this night!  Even if your family can’t make it, please help us advertise by sharing our flyer or the event link on social media.  
  • Our 5th/6th grade team has a winning record with 5 wins and 3 losses. They will be playing in the single elimination tournament this weekend! The first game is at 9:45 AM.
