Good morning! March is Women’s History Month. Started in 1987, Women’s History Month recognizes the valuable contributions of women of all to history and society. The country also recognizes National Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, National Multiple Sclerosis Education and Awareness Month, and Deaf History Month. Today we’re recognizing Ladda Tammy Duckworth, the first Asian American woman elected to Congress in Illinois and the first Thai American member of Congress who was born in Thailand. Duckworth also is the first disabled woman to be elected to Congress; she served as a U.S. helicopter pilot in the Iraq War and lost both legs during combat.

 

Happy Unity Week! We hope you wore a tie or bowtie today. Tomorrow, please take out your rainbow gear for the Rainbow Challenge! Today at lunch, Safe School Ambassador students and teachers will be leading Cooperative Games on the field from 12:30 to 1:00. Please come out and be a good sport!

 

Congrats to Safaa Zarkhan, Fianna McCarty-Snead & Chelsea Hummel for their 2nd place finish at the CalChess Girls State Chess Championship! AMS won 2nd place in the state!
