On January 20th, let’s come together as a community to honor the incredible legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and show our students how much we support them. The AMFHS Chorus will perform and the AFHS JROTC will march as part of the MLK Day Celebration in Columbia, SC. This is a monumental occasion, so don't miss out on the chance to see our scholars showcase their talent at the State House.
Parents and families, please come join us on January 16th in the Allendale-Fairfax High School Cafeteria. We will be hosting a Family Literacy and Wellness event for you to enjoy. In partnership with the Twin City Outreach Mission, we will be hosting a literacy night beginning at 5:00 PM. They will be donating free books and laptops to our students who are pre-registered. Then, at 6:00 PM we will shift the focus to our wellness initiatives. There will be complimentary dinner and door prizes, so don't miss out!
The elementary students performed "Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer" as a finale to their Winter Program. There were special guests such as Principal Leath, school teachers, and even Santa Claus! Not only was it entertaining, but it also showed why bullying is never okay, even if someone is different than you. The 12 Days of Festive Flair is all about spreading kindness and positivity. #12DaysofFestiveFlair #RudolphtheRedNoseReindeer #WinterProgram
The 12 Days of Festive Flair is meant to spread holiday magic and joy to everyone, even those outside of our district. The Winter Program at our Elementary School was so good it would get any Scrooge into the holiday spirit. Our kindergarteners performed a skit and danced to "Marshmallows and Hot Cocoa". We also heard an upbeat performance of "Jingle Bells" from our 1st and 2nd graders. #12DaysofChristmasFlair #HolidayClassics #WinterProgram

If so, we will upload the meeting as soon as we are able. We apologize and will provide you with the soonest update available.
