MS Piano 🎹 & Ping Pong Tables 🏓
You are welcome to use our piano and ping pong tables (coming later this week!) in the MS Commons during break time for now. Starting on September 29, you may also use them during Flex Space after school from 4-5. Let's all work together to take care of these special items and store the equipment properly.
Junior Embajadores
Are you looking for a way to give back to ASM and serve our community? Become a Junior Embajador!
HOW DO I SIGN UP? You can sign up by completing this Google Form or emailing the Admissions office admissions@asmadrid.es to tell them that you are interested.
THEN WHAT? Admissions will connect you with someone on campus (via email) who is looking for a Junior Embajador. You will need to confirm your job with the staff member and then let Admissions know you have accepted the job.
J.E. HOURS: You are responsible for keeping track of your hours (with your staff member's signature) so that you can earn a certificate of service at the end of the school year.
Your Support Team
Need help or support at school? Here’s who you can turn to in addition to your teachers and advisor:
Mr. Chambers is there if you need someone to talk to about your feelings, friendships, or any other challenges.
Mr. Hofschire and Ms. Thorp (Learning Support Teachers) can help you with strategies and tools to make learning and organization easier and more successful.
Ms. Cotillo works with students and teachers to keep our school safe, respectful, and positive, and supports students through challenges and ideas for improving our community.
Mr. Nugent leads the school and supports both students and teachers so everyone can do their best.
You are always welcome to stop by our offices or to send us an email.
