AHS - - Calling All Freshmen!!
Don’t miss a fun and informative night to kick off your high school journey!
📣 IMPORTANT: Please help us spread the word — there was a misprint in the Newspaper about the date and time. Make sure your fellow freshmen and families have the correct info!
Recently, State Superintendent Walters announced that school meals would be paid by school districts for all students. This has not been finalized or approved, nor has any guidance been given to school districts on how to implement this; therefore, at this time, school meals will continue to be charged as they have previously.
FREE AND REDUCED MEAL APPLICATIONS determine how much money our district receives in a variety of areas, so all families are encouraged to complete this application.
To complete the suggested FREE AND REDUCED MEAL APPLICATON, please log into your child’s enrollment portal in Sylogist or print & complete the attached application and return to your child’s school.

AMS & AHS Dress Code Updated Policy!
To support a safe and focused learning environment, students must follow the dress code each day.
Violations:
Students will be required to change or call home for appropriate clothing. Missed class time is unexcused. Repeated violations may result in disciplinary action. All final decisions are made by the principal.
AMS Lunch Guidelines
AMS students have a designated lunch period from 12:06 to 12:39 PM and are expected to eat during that time. Food is not permitted in 5th hour classes, so all lunch must be finished before students return to class.
To maintain a safe, consistent, and healthy school environment, food deliveries from services like DoorDash or GrubHub are not allowed. Additionally, parents and guardians are not permitted to bring or drop off outside food or drinks during school hours. This includes fast food, restaurant takeout, coffee drinks, sodas, and teas.
💢 If a student forgets their lunch, the school will provide a meal. Students also have the option to order ahead, which offers three additional meal choices beyond the daily lunch menu.
💢 Parents are free to pick up/check out their student for lunch off campus
▪️Filling out the Free & Reduced Lunch Application helps more than just your family. It supports school funding, programs, technology, and student services across the district.
💢Even if you don’t think you qualify, submitting the form can still make a big impact for our schools💢
Mark your calendars and make plans to attend — it’s always a fun and memorable evening! Your support means the world to the contestants, and we can’t wait to see you there!

A big shoutout to the Goldbug Football team for giving up their evening this week to give back to the community!
The team volunteered their time to help spread gravel at Washington Elementary, and we are so grateful for their hard work and community spirit.
Way to lead on and off the field! 🏈
We’re on a mission to transform the Alva Middle School Teacher Workroom into a cozy, welcoming space where our hardworking educators can relax, recharge, and connect during their busy day — and we’d love your help!
We’re looking for gently used, good-quality items to furnish and brighten the space. Specifically, we’re in need of:
A working refrigerator 🧊
An area rug 🧶
Comfortable chairs or small couches
A dining room table and chairs for shared meals or planning time 🍽️
Lamps, shelves, artwork, or anything that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere
If you have anything you’d like to donate, please comment below or send Mrs. Marteney a message. We can even help with pick-up if needed!
Let’s show our Alva teachers how much they’re appreciated by giving them a space that feels like a second home. 💛🖤
Thank you for supporting our school and staff!
