Alexandra Middle School students will be coming back from their week off to a brand new fitness centre.
School principal Todd Samuelson and athletic director Jaime Hamilton have been working behind the scenes to completely revamp the AMS fitness area. They have purchased locally-made and sold equipment, and hired local artist Christy Vince to bring new life to the fitness room.
“We wanted to create a space here for our students that would meet the needs of a complete beginner or elite student athlete,” said Samuelson. “We recognize the importance of a culture where students are active and well, so we started researching different fitness centres and started working with Medicine Hat High School and Crescent heights High School.
