Just a reminder - if you are a returning student to PSEO for the Fall 2024, you do not need to complete another application, but you will need to complete the NOSR form. This needs to be completed each semester. This year, you will also need to complete the PSEO agreement.
As you are starting to register for Fall classes at the college, please send the schedule to your counselor and let them know if you plan to take any classes at Andover.

If you are full time at the college and do not plan to take any classes at the HS, please denote that as well.

At the last club meeting, Leos wrote letters to senior citizens through the local Dear Doris and Arnold Project. The letters were brought to Impact Services, and will be distributed to isolated seniors in our community.

In an effort to bring the spirit of service to Andover High School, Youth Service will be hosting a variety of fun and meaningful service projects during select late start Mondays. Service projects will take place right here at school; participating students will receive 1 service hour per session. Click here for details on third trimester dates, times, and room location. On Monday, April 15th we made tie blankets for Meals on Wheels. At our next meeting, we will beautify school grounds by picking up garbage that accumulated over the winter months.

Join the Youth Service Google Classroom to access a list of upcoming volunteer opportunities in our community. If your student is curious about the number of service hours they've completed during high school, a transcript of all hours (completed and submitted) can be sent to them. For any inquiries or to request a transcript, feel free to contact Tammy Peterson at tammy.peterson@ahschools.us.

The Students in Action Multiplying Good Award for Public Service is a prestigious national recognition system honoring community and public volunteerism. Each month, we recognize one student who has taken effective action and created a meaningful impact in our community.

For the month of April, we want to recognize and celebrate Ellie Raab. Ellie is a dedicated member of the Andover Leo Club's leadership team. She consistently contributes her time, ideas, and passion to advance the club's mission, and enhance the service projects they carry out. Additionally, Ellie has earned recognition as a recipient of the Silver level President's Volunteer Service Award.
