In February, the District Office hosted a Danielson Showcase—a valuable opportunity for teachers to engage in professional learning and collaboration! 🍎📚

As part of the event, demonstrations were held for educators participating in the mentor/mentee process. Teachers newer to the profession heard firsthand from core team members, who shared the strategies they’re using in their own classrooms.
It was a meaningful and energizing learning experience for all involved! 👏 #ProfessionalLearning #DanielsonFramework #AmesCSD … See MoreSee Less

🎉 Today we celebrated something BIG at Ames High! 🎉

Congratulations to Ananya Balaji, who has been selected by The Coca-Cola Company as a 2025 Coke Scholar! 🏆🍾 She is just one of 150 students nationwide to receive this prestigious scholarship! Selected from an initial pool of over 105,000 applicants, Ananya represents less than 1/6th of 1% of students nationwide—an incredible achievement!

In true Coke fashion, they brought cupcakes, their new orange cream soda, and a $20,000 scholarship check to honor Ananya’s amazing achievement. 💸🎓

We are so proud of you, Ananya, for representing Ames High with excellence. This well-deserved honor reflects your hard work, leadership, and passion. 💛❤️ #AmesCSD #CokeScholar #AmesHighPride … See MoreSee Less
