from AMHS Partners in Education (PIE)

Congratulations to AMHS's newest National Honor Society members! These stellar students have GPAs of 4.8 or higher and met other requirements to join this prestigious organization. For more information about how students can qualify, check out the AMHS NHS page.

Hello from the young scientists in the AMHS Anatomy class, too! "It's the inside that counts," the group says. "And our AMHS Anatomy class is counting 206 ways we are supported by our bones."

Thanksgiving is almost here, and we're feeling grateful for the educators who make Academic Magnet extraordinary every single day. They pour their hearts into our kids all year long, so this season, let's send our gratitude back to them! 

Each year, AMHS PIE gathers donations from our families to give every teachers and staff members a gift card and a handwritten thank-you note. Any amount helps, and every contribution adds a little extra warmth to their week.

Here's the link to the Teacher Appreciation Thanksgiving Gift Card Drive if you'd like to make a donation.

Join us in passing the gratitude and showing our teachers just how much they mean to us. We will be gifting the Teachers & Staff a special holiday treat with their gift cards on Tuesday, November 17th so our collections will end on Saturday, November, 14, 2026.
