Dear AMS 6th Grade Families,


While it isn’t even officially winter yet, we have started the planning process for 6th grade students to attend The Ecology School in Saco, Maine this spring.

May 15th to May 19th - Rogers/Estabrook team, Manor/Argeropoulos team, and the sixth graders from Mont Vernon Village School


Cost:

The total cost of the trip, including the educational program, transportation, room and board, is $450.00 per student


Important Dates:

January 3, 2022 (Tuesday): Paperwork sent home with students from STEM teachers

January 18, 2022 (Wednesday): Parent Information Night, 6:30pm, AMS Cafeteria (Presentation is below!)

We are hoping to have all students participate in this valuable experience. If you anticipate needing financial assistance for your student to attend, please contact our lower school counselor, Maggie Kim ([email protected]), or your student’s science teacher. All inquiries will be kept confidential.


Thank you,
