The Quill- Issue One

Although our year is all but finished, the editors and staff of Animas High School’s student newspaper, The Quill,  have released their inaugural issue. We look forward to all the amazing publications to come! Hard copies of The Quill are available on campus and readers can find a digital copy here:

2012-13 School Calendar

Hard copies of the 2012-13 school calendar were included in our recent enrollment mailing. Please review the school’s calendar carefully and note the start date for your student’s class. For example, freshmen begin school Monday, August 27 while seniors do not join us until Thursday, August 30. This summer, AHS will send another mailing with information specific to Orientation Week. In general, plan to be at school from 8:15-3:15 p.m. each day of Orientation
