Dear Students & Families,

Happy Summer vacation! Last week, students finished their finals and teachers wrapped up grading; the weather has finally warmed, and I hope that everyone has begun to rest, relax, and recharge. Thank you for a wonderful year. It remains my privilege to work with this incredible AHS community of staff, students, and families. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in August!

Thank you and goodbye

We want to thank our departing staff members and wish them the best with all of their future endeavors:

Ana Velazquez, Caroline Cares, Celty Fitterer, Garrett Seddon, Itsel Zuniga-Torres, Jill Mueller, Makenzie Bortell, Nicole Free, & Tammy Highberger. Thank you all for the time and energy you gave to AHS and our entire community. We will miss you!!

All students have summer work! Please click on the links based on your grade level. This information will live on the AHS Homepage, too.

• 9th & 10th MYP Summer Work

• 11th & 12th DP and Non DP Summer Work

We are under more construction this summer, so there is no access to AHS through the doors by the faculty parking lot. In addition, specific classrooms will only be accessible if prior arrangements are in place. We have outside organizations using rooms, and we are getting new floors, which will restrict the ability to move throughout the school.

Are you interested in earning a Google certification and working to support our new Chromebook program next year? Complete this form to have an assigned class period to work in the AHS Chrome Zone (location TBD) where you will not only earn a certificate, you will receive course credit, and be one of the Google help desk gurus at AHS.

Students received their draft schedules on Monday; they will receive updated schedules this week via email to reflect any changes that were requested.
