AHS Weekly Update- Week of February 28th, 2011



It’s Project Week at Animas High and our students are engaged in unique learning opportunities both in Durango and across Southwestern Colorado. We look forward to seeing all their great work and the results of their efforts. Please take a moment to review the following updates:

AHS Admissions Lottery
CSAPs
2011 Spring Break


AHS Admissions Lottery
Animas High School will NOT be holding an admissions lottery for the incoming class of 2015 on March 1st. All students who completed enrollment forms for next fall will be offered admission to AHS and will be sent registration packets from the school. Registrations are due back to Animas High’s Main Office by Friday, April 15th.

Enrolled students who do not return a completed registration packet will be removed from the school’s admissions roster. Once AHS reaches enrollment capacity (81 students), subsequent enrollees will be assigned to the school’s Waiting List in the order in which they enrolled. We want to thank everyone for such a rewarding enrollment season and we look forward to working with the class of 2015!

Additionally, Animas High continues to accept enrollment for limited spots in our Class of 2014.The school will enroll students for next year’s tenth grade until we reach capacity. Enrollment forms can be found online at www.animashighschool.com

CSAPs
When we return to school after spring vacation, it will be CSAP week. Students will be testing every day, March 14-18. We ask your help in making sure students get to school on time, are well-rested and prepared to do their best. Please see the attached Parent Brochure for more information about the CSAP testing. The 2011 CSAP schedule allows for extra time with advisory groups both in the morning and afternoon of testing week. We look forward to supporting our students as they navigate the 2011 CSAP experience. Questions or concerns can be forwarded to Testing Director Cat Lauer at cat.lauer@animashighschool.com and/or AHS Coordinator of Student Services, Jeff DiGiacomo at jeff.digiacomo@animashighschool.com

2011 Spring Break
Animas High School will close Friday, March 4th at 4pm for Spring Break. Campus will reopen at 7am on Monday, March 14th. Please have a very safe and super fun vacation!
