When we consider <strong>the</strong> year like <strong>the</strong> running of a race, <strong>the</strong>re are times when we hit<br />

<strong>the</strong> wall and need to will ourselves through it. Spring in a middle school certainly<br />

exemplifies this! However, we do want to finish well and are committed to<br />

working on our relationships and making it better. We look forward to continue<br />

working with our students and <strong>the</strong>ir families to enhance an exceptional AMS<br />

community.<br />

I wish everyone a relaxing summer break.<br />
