Learning to read and reading to learn - Ms Congelio has been an integral part of hundreds of ATS students learning how to read over the years. This is so well deserved!!
Congratulations to our very own APS All Star, Ms. Congelio! She works so hard each day to teach our littlest Stars how to ‘learn to read so they can read to learn’!!! We are so proud of you!!! @APSVirginia @ATSPrincipal
