Reminder for AFC Kindergarteners and Seniors!

The AFC PTC would like to invite you to our Kindergarten (Class of 2039) and Senior (Class of 2027) Ice Cream Social.

One class is beginning their school journey, while the other is preparing for their final year. What better way to celebrate than by bringing these two special groups together for an evening of sweet treats, new friendships, and lasting memories?

We can't wait to welcome the Class of 2039 and celebrate the Class of 2027 as they kick off an exciting school year together!
