Congratulations to our Kindergarten students for kicking off our Celebrations of Learning yesterday! They were confident and courageous as they showcased all they learned this semester about living and non-living things, as well as family and connection across different generations. We're so proud of all of their hard work this year, and can't wait to see what they accomplish next year in first grade!

Celebrations of learning are more than a display of student work and more than a party at the end of the year. The events encourage students to reflect on and share what they have learned, how they learned, questions they answered, research they conducted, and areas of strength and struggles. They are powerful opportunities to make learning public.

Check out some of their performances below.

We escaped the island! A huge thank you to Ms. Guerra for planning a fun-filled culmination to our annual Amazing Race! And another big thank you to our parent volunteers and our staff crew members who helped to make sure it was a successful event for our students who either earned the prize for escaping the island or a movie and popcorn. Each weekly destination was an opportunity for students to practice grade level standards and we are proud of their hard work in preparation for end of year testing!

Students arriving after 9:50 will need to be signed in by their parents and will be marked tardy. Breakfast will be served as usual, and we will follow our regular lunch schedule. Dismissal will begin 3:25 anx the afternoon, including bus routes and after care, will run as normal.

On Tuesday we celebrated the 20th Anniversary of Amana’s founding with people who have been a long-time part of our legacy - founding board members, founding parents, founding staff, community partners, alumni who started with us in our early years. We wanted to celebrate the pioneers who had a vision, a belief, that education could be something more. The evening was In honor of our Executive Director, Ehab Jaleel, who is also a founding parent and founding board member, for his dedication to stewarding the mission of Amana for 20 years. Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate our founders and to honor Mr. Jaleel - it was a special night!

Dear Amana West Community,

Due to the potential for icy weather this weekend and out of an abundance of caution, Amana West will move to asynchronous learning for students and remote work for staff on Monday, January 26.

Teachers prepared for this possibility in advance and have already sent home assignments that students can complete independently. These activities are designed to be completed without the use of technology, in the event of power and/or internet outages.

There will be no live classes or virtual meetings on Monday. Students should complete the work provided at their own pace and return it according to their teacher’s directions once school resumes.

We appreciate your flexibility and partnership as we prioritize the safety of our students, families, and staff. Please continue to monitor your email, class dojo, our social media channels and our website for any additional updates.

Stay safe and warm this weekend, and thank you for your continued support of Amana West.

Amana Academy is closely monitoring the winter weather system expected to move through Georgia over the coming days. We are paying close attention to the latest forecasts and potential impacts.

What does this mean for students and employees?
Based on current information, weekend activities are expected to be most impacted. As a result, any weekend activities have been rescheduled.

At this time, no decisions have been made about Monday’s school schedule. School and Network Office leaders will assess conditions throughout the weekend, including road safety and building operations, before making any determinations.
