📗📘📙The Book Fair is coming to AES! See the flyer for details.
Due to the penny shortage, any change under .5 cents will automatically be placed in the "share the fair" funds. "Share the fair" is used to help students who are running a little short buy their books during the fair. Thank you for your understanding!

Our 5th Grade Student Leaders are spearheading a crucial Community Service Project: a canned food and boxed goods drive for our neighbors in need. This is a House Competition—the house that brings in the most donations wins big!

🧀 Microwavable Cups of Mac and Cheese
🥛 Shelf-Stable Milk and Orange Juice
🍗 Canned Chicken and Tuna
🥣 Mini Cereal Boxes

Every donation helps our student leaders reach their goal and supports a great cause. Please bring your donations to school between November 10-21. Let's show our student leaders how much our community cares and get those house points!
