A huge thank you to Mrs. Harpring for sharing her incredible talent once again! She has created a second beautiful mural at AGR—this time brightening our cafeteria with a colorful reminder that "Great Things Happen Here!"
From art and music to science, math, reading, athletics, and our beloved Bulldog pride, this mural celebrates the many opportunities our students experience every day. It captures the heart of who we are and serves as an inspiring welcome for everyone who walks through our school.
We are so grateful for Mrs. Harpring's creativity, time, and dedication to making AGR an even more vibrant place to learn and grow. Thank you for leaving another lasting mark on our school community!

What an amazing end of year party that parents of fifth graders put on for our graduates! Thank you to everyone who helped with either sending something in, or being here to help!

This years final robo call!

Ms.C's 3rd graders are working hard preparing for Market Day. They are very creative and great team workers too.

Last year, AGR came in 3rd place for the Prodigy National Championship, earning a prize valued at $10,000. We have been able to replace headphones in the upper grades, as well as Beaverbots to use in the art room. Third graders have also been using them to prepare for their annual market day event next year. We are half way through the National Championship. Let's see if we can earn more winnings this year!

See the invitation below for the AGR 5th Grade Graduation, taking place May 20th at 5:30 here at AG Richardson. Be sure to bring tissues!

Thank you to the Blackwell family and 2B BBQ for today's pancake breakfast!

As the culminating activity of the after school BAM program, students in fourth and fifth grade enjoyed a dinner at Luigi's restaurant. Thank you to administration at AG Richardson for covering the cost of the meal!

So many thanks to the ladies pictured of our PAC committee, as well as all of the other ones who are not pictured but helped out. The staff at AG appreciates all your efforts and enjoyed today's spread!
