AMS Student Agenda
The Arbutus Middle School PTA generously purchases an agenda for all AMS students at the beginning of the school year. The purpose of this school wide tool is to prepare our students as they learn to organize assignments and plan long term projects. The agenda is also the student hall pass, a reference for class and for the school policies, rules and procedures. All students must carry an agenda for the entire school year. Lost agendas must be replaced by the student. Replacements can be purchased in the office for $10.
