On Wednesday, February 11th, we’re aiming for 100% attendance districtwide as part of our #BeHereAlamo #AttendanceMatters campaign! 🎯

Our APS Student Nutrition team will be providing a Valentine's treat to all students during lunch, and the fun doesn't end there! Students will receive a fun #BeHere sticker! While we always aim for strong attendance, Be Here Day is an opportunity to remind everyone why being present matters! Don't miss the fun and #BeHereAlamo! 🍪

Plus, bus riders, let's PACK THE BUS! Did you know? 🚌On the 80th & 120th day of school, APS captures a snapshot of the bus ridership to report to NMPED. The information collected on this day is very important and impacts the funding our district receives for transportation. Transportation funding not only supports students' daily rides to and from school, it can also support in-district school field trips.

🐮✨ Throwback Tuesday continues! Let’s jump back to the day Mrs. Ham brought a very special guest to school… sweet Miss Maizey the cow!

Our students were all smiles as they learned about farm life, asked great questions, and got up close with this gentle visitor. Moments like these make learning unforgettable and fill our halls with joy. 🩵

Thanks, Mrs. Ham (and Miss Maizey!) for making such a memorable day for our Wolves! 🐾

Throwback Thursday! 🕰️🧪
Because yes… we do that too!

Remember when our Life Skills students made their very own lava lamps? 🌈 From mixing colors to watching the bubbles rise, it was a day full of smiles, creativity, and hands-on learning. We love celebrating moments like these. Here’s to more memories in the making! 💙🐺

Throwback Tuesday? We’re declaring it officially a thing at Sunset Hills 📸✨

Back in August, Mrs. Wenrich’s 1st grade class kicked off the school year by sharing all about themselves with their classmates, favorite things, big smiles, and brave voices included. It was such a sweet way to build friendships and start our classroom family strong.

We love looking back at these moments and seeing how much our Wolves have grown since then. Keep shining, little stars! 💛🐺 #ThrowbackTuesday #SunsetHillsWolves #FirstGradeFun #GrowingTogether
