Student Life

Wolf Pack Hour

Wolf Pack Hour is our Middle School exploratory/club period that occurs the last 45 minutes of each school day.  During the scheduling process, students will have the opportunity to sign up for clubs and activities that occur each quarter during the school day.  Students will also be assigned to a Rally Club that is a small, focused group of students who meet regularly with a teacher to discuss various topics related to their education, well-being, and personal development. These groups are designed to provide students with a safe and supportive environment where they can share their thoughts, receive support, and develop important life skills. All Wolf Pack Hour clubs and Rally Groups run on an A/B Day cycle.

Some examples of club and activity options are:

  • Green Team
  • AGCS Alpha Leo Club
  • Book/Film Club
  • Sports Club
  • Community Care Club
  • STEM Club
  • Dance Club
  • Newspaper Club

Leo Club

Where there's a need, there's a Leo.

Leo Club Logo

As the youngest members of Lions Clubs International, Leos embody the best qualities of the Lions Clubs organization. They are devoted young people who realize the power of action. Together, Leos and Lions form a powerful partnership—one of mutual respect, where Lions learn from the innovative insights of Leos, and where Leos gain access to the proven strategies of those who’ve successfully served the world for decades.

The Leo club motto is:

Leadership - Leos develop skills as organizers, time managers, and motivators of their peers.
Experience - Leos learn the importance of cooperation through community service.
Opportunity - Membership provides young people with a chance to excel, to develop positive character traits, and to receive recognition for their contributions to the community.

Community service is the cornerstone of the program. Students work with Lion's Club and staff advisors to plan and execute a number of service related programs and projects at AGCS and the surrounding community. Many Leo Club members at AGCS exceed 100 hours of community service per year.

The AGCS Leo Club is open to all students in 7th and 8th grade during Wolf Pack Hour.  The club is a partnership between AGCS Middle School and the local Lion's Club chapter.

Parents and students, visit the Leo Club Program website if you are interested in learning more.

Middle School Newspaper

The Middle School Newspaper is a club that is offered during Wolf Pack Hour. Seventh and Eighth grade students work together to brainstorm, research, and write articles.

The goal for the club is to put together a newspaper every month. The newspaper covers teacher interviews, highlighting student artwork, highlighting lessons/projects in their classrooms, school dances, fundraising events, and so much more!

Student of the Quarter

AGCS Crest

To encourage all students to be winners and excel academically, emotionally, and socially in all aspects of the school environment, the middle school team holds a quarterly assembly. During this assembly, each teacher chooses a student from a pre-selected class period to be recognized for their hard work and diligence during that month. These winners receive a small prize and certificate for their efforts.

During this assembly, our Principal picks a teacher to recognize, while also presenting the student body with a Challenge of the Month. This challenge is used to get the students thinking, reflecting, and trying things that are outside of their comfort zone, while also building a sense of community and caring within the school. As the school year progresses, we hope that the Winner of the Quarter assemblies recognize many of the talented and dedicated students we have here at Avon Grove Charter. We believe that these students and teachers do their very best each day to make our school a unique learning environment.
