The PTA Fall Fest on Sunday, October 18, 2026 was a tremendous success, bringing our school community together for an afternoon filled with plenty of fall fun! We couldn’t have asked for more perfect weather — sunny skies with a touch of a fall chill — it was the ideal afternoon to gather. We anticipated approximately 350 attendees. Based on ticket counts, over 630 people joined us! We were thrilled to see so many families enjoying the festivities and making wonderful memories together.

Room parents are one of the most meaningful ways to get involved at ASFS — and one of the most misunderstood roles by new families. The role is not about being in the classroom constantly and does not require a huge time commitment.

A room parent is a liaison between the classroom teacher and the families in that homeroom. You help families stay connected to each other and to what's happening in the classroom — and you communicate what families need to bring or sign up for around a handful of events throughout the year.

On Monday, August 10, the APS construction crew began tearing up the ASFS front traffic circle. All public records available to date indicate that this work was started before an approved permit was in place. This is a disappointing and troubling update for our community.
