Our staff and students had a great time celebrating Principal McAuliffe yesterday for School Principal's Day 2024. Principal McAuliffe has been such a valuable asset to the Bentonville School district and especially to the growth of AAMS. He is fair. He is compassionate and he continues to foster a legacy of kindness and community among the staff and students here at AAMS. Principal McAuliffe helps "blaze" a trail to higher expectations both academically and socially. He is appreciated each and every day but wanted to give him the special shout out he so rightly deserves!
Bike to School week is THIS week! Enjoy and stay safe!
These three ladies bring Sunshine and Rainbows to our school each and every day. Working both on the front lines and behind the scenes, they have more to do with the day to day workings of the school than anyone will ever know.
We are beyond blessed to have them here at Ardis Ann Middle School. Thank you, Mrs. Dawson (Ms. Terri), Ms. Falge and Ms. Hood. Words cannot express our gratitude.

Our students and staff love having our school resource officer, Officer Cook, on campus with us here at AAMS. He is a wonderful role model and makes positive connections with our students.
The SRO assignment is unique within the law enforcement profession. These officers fill a three-part role, serving as informal mentors or counselors, law educators and law enforcement officers to support the students and communities they serve. They are valuable and essential members of the education community who deserve unwavering respect and support from the public in the pursuit of keeping schools and students safe.
Thank you Officer Cook for helping to keep our school safe and helping to establish positive relationships between law enforcement and our community.
