We’re excited to celebrate another outstanding achievement as one of our Comets heads to the next level!
Congratulations to 6th grader Ava Agostinelli on earning her spot in the Lorain County Spelling Bee on April 23 at Northwood Middle School in Elyria! 🐝👏
Ava secured her place by becoming the top speller in the Amherst Junior High Spelling Bee—an incredible accomplishment that reflects her hard work, dedication, and determination.
We are so proud of you, Ava! 💫 We can’t wait to cheer you on and know you will represent Comet Nation with excellence.

Based on the updated weather forecast, wind chill temperatures are expected to improve, so the Amherst Schools will be in session tomorrow, Thursday, January 29, for all students.
Please be sure students come dressed appropriately for winter conditions, including coats, hats, gloves, and boots. At this time, there is limited salt available, so we ask everyone to use extra caution and take their time on roads and sidewalks.
To prioritize safety, students will not be marked tardy tomorrow, as we want families to arrive safely without feeling rushed.
We’re excited to welcome students back and get back into the routine of learning. Thank you for your continued flexibility and support.
