College Night
Tuesday evening, February 15th from 5 to 6:30 PM, Animas High School will be hosting a second College Night for parents and families of the Class of 2013 who were unable to attend on February 3rd. Please join us to hear how Animas High School will be supporting and guiding our students through the college admissions process. It’s an exciting time for 10th graders as we prepare our college files, practice application and interview skills and get ready for college tours this May. Come hear how you can support AHS in preparing all our students for post secondary success!
All students in the class of 2013 will attend this presentation on Tuesday during their advisory class. Questions about this event can be forwarded to the College Counseling Dept. via email at college@animashighschool.com

Upcoming Exhibition Events
Animas High School Freshmen will be presenting the following exhibitions to the community on Thursday, February 24th at Animas High School.
The first exhibition event will be “Model U.N.” from 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. and 12:15 p.m. – 2:15 p.m. Students will address issues of the Palestinian refugee crisis, and the recent provocations from North Korea. Students will make speeches, using parliamentary rules, haggling over resolutions, and writing amendments to solve these challenging world problems. It is a great chance to see some critical thinking in action and learn about these global issues.
