Raptor Report

October 7, 2026

from AMHS Partners in Education (PIE)

Three great events in the books this week!

Up first: College Application Day, which served more than 80 students. They were highly productive, working with college representatives and counselors who offered support and guidance.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this a meaningful and productive day for our seniors.

Up next, our Bonds Wilson Librarians were psyched to bring home the trophy for the highest reading participation in August. Congratulations!

And third, congratulations as well to our AMHS Academic Quiz Bowl team on their second place win at the "Brain Brawl at the Beach" NAQT tournament in Myrtle Beach!

A big thank you to the parents who stocked the AMHS Senior Lounge with snacks this week! Senior Moms are still taking contributions through Venmo if you'd like to help fund this: @Meredith-white and @Alana-sherman-2.

And thank you, PIE parents, for all you do - including stocking the fridge in the Teachers' Lounge this week!
