The homework hotline system is now online!  All teachers have a website that will be showing their homework assignments at the start of the school year. These can be accessed by clicking on the link above or at our Teams and Contacts page. Please note that the student agenda book is the primary mode of communication between and home and school.  The teacher website is to be used by parents/guardians to support, if needed, the homework completion process at home.  There may be technological challenges that prevent the website from working and/or the teacher from posting.  As such, the agenda book is the primary source for recording homework.  Parents/guardians are asked to support the school by stressing this point with his/her AMS student.

PARENT/GUARDIAN VISITATION
Parents or legal guardians are welcomed to visit the Arbutus Middle School.  We respectfully request that parents/guardians provide grade level administrators with 24 hours notice to notify the teacher that a visitor will be in his/her classroom.  Every effort is made to balance the needs of parents/guardians with the needs of other students in the classroom. 

PARENT/GUARDIAN CHECK POLICY NOTIFICATION
To save the school several hundreds of dollars in collection fees and several hours of human resources, we no longer accept personal checks for gym uniforms, field trips, lost books, yearbooks, etc. (exception: AMS Cafeteria, which is a separate entity operated under the direction of the BCPS Food and Nutrition Office).  We understand this may be an inconvenience, but we have a fiscal responsibility to make decisions to conserve operating costs. We will accept money orders, bank issued cashier checks, and cash.  Staff will keep documentation of monies received, as well as give students a receipt.
