AHS Weekly Update- Week of May 17th, 2010



Greetings Animas High School Community,

Please take a moment to review the following updates:

Advisory Olympics
Bonanza Events Continue
Registration/Reenrollment
tPOLs

Advisory Olympics

The Culture of Excellence at Animas High School is due in no small part to the role of our Advisory program and curriculum. Advisory groups have had an amazing year at AHS and we are extremely excited for our last session together this Tuesday. Students and staff will be participating in the 2010 Advisory Olympics on Tuesday afternoon. Students are allowed to bring athletic wear for the afternoon’s festivities which are guaranteed to challenge and excite. Go AHS!

Bonanza Events Continue

Our students have been instrumental in helping us identify the best possible teachers for our school next year. Bonanza interviews and sample lessons continue this week with candidates for Math, Science and Humanities joining us this Thursday and Friday. All of us at school are excited and inspired by the pool of candidates that have participated in Bonanza events this spring. We look forward to announcing new AHS teachers very soon!

Registration/Reenrollment

A reminder that registration for new 9th and 10th grade Animas High students will take place Thursday, May 20th from 5:30 to 7:30 at AHS. Registration night is mandatory for all new students who have enrolled at Animas High. Registration packets were mailed home last week and should be brought to registration night along with a 40 dollar reg. fee.

A reminder that Reenrollment packets for current AHS students were sent home last week and are due back to the Animas Main Office with a 25 dollar reenrollment fee. Please help us plan and staff accordingly by getting the packets back to AHS promptly!

tPOLs

Students have scheduled their tPOLs for the final week of school in their Humanities classes. Make sure to ask your student when they’re presenting. Transitional presentations of learning are a big deal and students will be asked to make their tPOL up if they do not pass. Please support your student as they prepare to make the case for promotion into the 10th grade!
