Our elementary students had the joy of learning a bit about science today at our Circus Science assembly with Dynamic School Assemblies. We learned about gravity, physics, momentum and had a blast!

Please consider AGS Schools as you work on your Spring Cleaning!

Students in 7th grade science went head to head in a single elimination, five round tournament with their rubberband powered racecars. Along with an overall winner, individual honors also included people's choice, hardest worker, and best looking car.

Biology students are exploring the wonders of microscopy.

Growing season has begun as environmental science students planted seeds from native Michigan plants that were harvested last Fall. The plants will be available for purchase later this school year and will also be used in our green infrastructure installations around Au Gres.
