There will be no curbside meals today due to inclement weather.

Update: While the snow has subsided, the roads in many areas of the AMSD have substantial ice making travel unsafe for students and staff who may need to travel to complete remote learning. As a result, AMSD will be cancelling all virtual classes today, Wednesday, February 2, 2022. Please Enjoy the snow!

Due to unsafe travel conditions AMSD will shift to remote learning today, Wednesday, Feb. 2

Good Morning Vista Family, I just wanted to let everyone know that parent teacher conferences are rapidly approaching.

We look forward to connecting with as many of you as possible! Dreher Robertson

Good Afternoon Vista Family, Students should be wrapping up their semester. As such, all teachers will have office hours tomorrow via Google Meets for students to meet, clarify any last minute assignment questions and to check in on grades. Please ask students to look for the links to these Google Meets sessions within their Google Classroom announcements. The schedule of office hours will be as follows: Dobbs 10:00 - 11:00, Zarko 11:00 - 12:00, McClung 12:00 - 1:00, Dusenberry 1:00 - 2:00. Teachers will be available to support students at any other times throughout the week as well, but this will be a good opportunity to meet live for any clarity. Again, thank you all for your patience with this situation. Dreher

Good Morning Vista Family, It has come to our attention that we have had multiple COVID exposures in the building. As a result of the total number exposed and the desire to mitigate spread, we will be going remote for the rest of the week. We will resume in-person instruction and begin our new semester on Tuesday, January 18th. I am sorry this is happening. We all want to be in school, we just find ourselves in a very difficult situation. Ms. Klohn and myself will be reaching out to the close contacts this morning. Students will need to access their Google classrooms for assignments the rest of the week. If your student does not have their computer, please email or message us today so that arrangements can be made to get this out to students. Thank you for your patience as we navigate the current pandemic landscape. Dreher
