A beautiful tradition here at AFC. Our Elementary students and staff lined up as the Senior class took one more walk down the halls of AFC Elementary. Their journey began here. They've been challenged, taken risks, and grown together. Tomorrow they will receive their diplomas. We are so proud of the Class of 2023! Go Raiders!

A couple of notes about today's baseball game at Sterling Newman.
1) This is a regional game, therefore there will be $5 admission fee per person.
2) It is Newman's graduation this evening, so parking will be limited.
AFC plays Morrison at Newman at 4:30. If they win, they will play Saturday at 2:00.

A bittersweet day with our Seniors today. Thank you to Mrs Viall who organized Senior Give Back Day! AFC Seniors spent the day lending a helping hand at AFC Elementary. From PE & recess, to book organizing, to cleaning up the landscaping - our Seniors spent their final day investing in our young Raider students. These amazing students will be missed in the halls of AFC, but their legacy of citizenship and leadership are handed down to the next generation of AFC Raiders 💛🖤
PE classes had fun with parachutes today!
