General Information
Parking Passes
Parking Passes will be $10 this school year. The fee will need to be paid at the bookstore, cash or check made payable to: AHS. Forms are available for pick up at the front desk. Documentation needed is proof of registration, insurance and driver's license (not a permit)
Student ID's
We are working through the next week to get ID's out to students. We will also be calling new students up for pictures
Permanent passes. If you have a child taking dual credit courses and has a class blanked out, or a senior without a full schedule, you may come in and get your permanent pass once schedules are available. A parent will need to accompany their student because the permanent pass agreement needs to be notarized at that time so please bring a valid ID. This only gives students the ability to leave during designated times on the pass, not to check themselves out.
Contact Information
Please be sure you have current contact information in PowerSchool such as updated phone numbers and pick up list. This way we can be sure to communicate with you in the best way. We are happy to help you with any changes you may need to make. Please be sure to check who you have recorded in PowerSchool to be able to pick up your child. We cannot release students to people who are not on your pick up list. We want to make this process as painless as possible for you.
Phone Policy
Attendance
Starting the school year
STUDENT ID's -- ID's will be mandatory for ALL students to have on them. Students will need their ID's to enter through the metal detectors, to be in the hall during class, ride the bus, participate in after school events as well as many other aspects of their day. Students should be receiving these the first days of school.
CLUBS AND EXTRA CURRICULAR -- We believe that School is what you make it. We want all students to find a place to belong at AHS. We want to encourage students to be a part of a club that will help them belong and support them moving through High School.
Join Mr. Stiles for an exciting trip to Japan in Summer 2026, organized in partnership
with EF Tours. Register for our info session to learn about the benefits, itinerary, safety
measures, and how your student can earn academic credit. Hurry, as spots are limited
for this enriching adventure that aims to expand students’ horizons and foster global
citizenship.

This trip is not sponsored by Alamogordo Public Schools. It is conducted in partnership with EF Educational Tours, accredited organization.
Grateful for you
If you have read this far, CONGRATULATIONS!! You now get to get inspirational with me. As you can see I added a lot about being grateful!. I am grateful to get the opportunity to the Principal of AHS and work with you and your child this year. Please know you can reach out to me if you have questions or concerns. Email is the best way to get questions answered from me. You can call, but you might need to leave a message and I will get back to you. We are going to have a wonderful 2024-2025 school year!
Did I leave something out???
I know there must be many more questions you have about the start of the school year. I plan to send another email before starts. Please feel free to reach out and let me know what information you feel you are still wondering about before the start of the school year.
