The AGS Technology Expo was designed to help parents gain insight on how your children and the AGS community can learn more effectively with technological classroom tools. However, we as a PTO can’t do it alone—it takes a team, and we need your help.
What does this plan look like? Bottom line, to turn this goal into reality, we need to raise $200K. We know this won’t be done overnight—which is why we need to establish realistic goals as well as a long-range plan. If we look at the current AGS student body, we have just over 300 families. Reaching the set goal amounts to $650 per family. That is a lot of money, so we need to put on our thinking caps and get creative on how to raise this amount—be it through donations, corporate sponsorships and/or grants, bake sales—you name it. But we need every family’s help in reaching this goal.
This is why we have formed five committees to help make our technological vision a reality:
We encourage you to volunteer for one of these committees, and to make a difference in your child’s life, as well as the children who will follow in their footsteps at AGS. Please consider your strengths, or those of fellow parents that you know, and fill out this form to help share in this vision. Together, we can do great things. But it’s going to involve the efforts of everyone.

Mrs. Green and Mr. Davis' kindergarten class raised the most and will receive an Ice Cream Party.
Mrs Stierwalt's class will receive a special treat also as they were the second place classroom in both the fall and winter collections.
