Your Invited September 21st - 5:15pm


The Outdoor Classroom Project Service Learners would like to invite everyone to skip a night in the kitchen and have dinner before the PTA/Open House meeting begins and help us build our Outdoor Classroom.

We will have pizza, chips, drinks and great fellowship with the other families of ASFL. All proceeds will go directly to the building of the Outdoor Classroom. Renovations have already begun!

Dinner will conclude sharply at 5:50 and we ask that everyone be seated in the Gym for the beginning of PTA/Open House before 6 p.m. 

All plates (2 slices of pizza, chips and drink) will be $5.00 per person. Make plans to attend a great family night to be enjoyed by all.

Dear Teachers and Parents,
We are moving along with our outdoor classroom project and we need your assistance. Mr. Kost, a landscape architect, is volunteering to assist us with the project. Our service learners are researching and making plans on specific jobs.
Mrs. Traylor and Mr. Kost have outlined specific tasks that need to be completed. Please review the list below and send Mrs. Traylor an e-mail if you are able to assist. Her e-mail address is atraylor@hsv.k12.al.us.
We are so excited! If you have an opportunity, please stop by to take a glance at the outdoor design that is posted on the window located near the exit to the greenhouse, which will be demolished soon. The proposed designed is absolutely breath taking!
