With 4th through 6th graders participating in VAPA, the PTA wanted to make sure TK through 3rd graders also had music in their curriculum. Each class gets to experience a 45-min weekly music lesson.

At AHES, we believe in the important role that art plays in a well-rounded curriculum. The PTA sponsors 2-3 sessions per school year where an instructor from Art Masters Academy teaches the students about an influential artist and then the students create artwork in the style of that artist.

Bring the whole family along to celebrate the spookiest season of all at our annual Fall Festival! Enjoy trunk-or-treating, a chili cook-off, a carved pumpkin contest, cake walk, and a live DJ!

We always knew AHES was filled with talented students! What better way to showcase some of those talents than a talent show? The PTA hosted a talent show and everyone had so much fun cheering on each other as they took to the stage.

PTA Reflections is a nationally acclaimed student recognition program that encourages students artistic creativity in the classroom and home. PTA Reflections invites kids of all grades and abilities to get involved in the arts and explore their creative voice. We love seeing the amazing submissions from our students!

Whether you are sad (BooHoo!) or excited (Yahoo!) for the new school year to start, we are here for you! The PTA hosts a BooHoo/Yahoo Breakfast right after drop-off on the first day of school so that parents can connect and kick-off the school year together.

In the Spring, the PTA transforms the MPR into an unforgettable dance floor where students and their families can dance the night away!

During your child's birthday (or half-birthday!) month, they can choose a book from a selection of grade-appropriate options, and your child's name will be permanently displayed on a book label inside the front cover, recognizing their contribution to the AHES library.

Every month, each teacher selects a student who they feel embodies Panther PRIDE to be recognized at a surprise assembly. We are so proud of all of our students and love being able to celebrate them for being awesome!

Our dedicated Yearbook Crew spends countless hours putting together a lovely yearbook to capture all of the students’ wonderful memories. Be sure to order yours and customize your free pages!

At the Panther Picnic, families can join their child for a fun picnic-style lunch on the field. The students are always so excited to share this special time with their families!

At AHES, we support Red Ribbon Week’s mission to keep kids drug-free. For a week in October, students participate in activities that promote making healthy life choices.
