AMS Weekly Events: 12/8 - 12/13

☕️📚🎄We will be celebrating Jolabokaflod (Pronounced YOLA-BOKA-FLODE) which means “Christmas book flood” on Friday, December 12th. It’s an Icelandic tradition where everyone reads books and drinks hot chocolate while wearing their comfy clothes. Just bring a book to read or swap with a friend and wear your favorite comfy-cozy clothes (no pajamas). It’s going to be so much fun!

Ashworth Middle School 6th grade math teacher Coach Chaney Jones worked with students today on solving mathematical word problems and understanding how to evaluate and solve expressions. Students were focused and actively participating as they strengthened their problem-solving skills.

Thanksgiving Break is November 24-28

Great work happening in Mr. Peacock’s 8th grade social studies class as students build visual literacy by analyzing Civil War political cartoons to better understand the war’s impact on Georgia! This meaningful approach helps students think critically and see history through multiple perspectives. #ExtraordinaryAMS #ExtraordinaryGCS

Gordon County Schools is proud to celebrate two extraordinary middle school students who were recognized by the Kiwanis Club of Calhoun-Gordon County for their outstanding character. Cooper Ingram from Red Bud Middle School and Addy Temple from Ashworth Middle School exemplify kindness, leadership, and service in their schools and communities.
Cooper Ingram (top of image) is an exceptional young man who consistently demonstrates compassion and a willingness to help others. He is always ready to lend a hand, often stepping in without being asked simply because he recognizes a need. Cooper never seeks recognition or the spotlight. Instead, he acts out of genuine care and integrity, making his classroom and school a better place each and every day. His character shines through his everyday actions, reflecting who he truly is at heart.
Addy Temple (bottom of image) has shown remarkable leadership through her daily responsibility of raising and lowering the U.S. and Georgia state flags at Ashworth Middle School. With quiet pride and dedication, she ensures that the flags are displayed respectfully, demonstrating discipline, honor, and teamwork. Whether she is organizing the flag area, mentoring younger students, or stepping up to help whenever needed, Addy leads through service and sets a powerful example for her peers. She reminds us that leadership often begins with small acts carried out with excellence and heart.
We are incredibly proud of Cooper and Addy for representing the spirit of Red Bud Middle School and Ashworth Middle School with such integrity and character. Congratulations to these outstanding students.
