Be sure to mark your calendar for the second annual AGR Probability Fair. This is a FREE event for AGR families. It's February 22, 2024 from 5pm - 6:30pm. (You're welcome to, but you don't have to stay the whole time; it takes about 20-30 minutes to play all the games.)
Each student gets a baggie of tickets when they come in. They are allowed to play each of the 20 games one time. Probability ranges from certain to win, to impossible to win!!
New this year--Which Will You Pick?--a game just for parents!! Stay tuned for details.
If you have any questions about this event, don't hesitate to ask AGR Math Specialist Mrs. Standley.
