I hope this note finds you well and I hope you and your family had a relaxing and enjoyable autumn weekend. Please allow me a quick second to update you all on AHS happenings this week:

Student Led Conferences Tomorrow Night!

From the looks on students’ faces this morning, there’s definitely some anxious anticipation for tomorrow night’s SLCs. Students are busy readying there Digital Portfolios and rehearsing their presentations. Parents/guardians should already know what time their student is scheduled to present. There also is an SLC update included in the most recent Head of School update that went out on Friday.
