Our Parent Advisory Committee is an avenue for parents to express their voice while supporting the school. We meet monthly, and our first meeting is Monday, September 10 at noon at Doughworks.
Part of PAC's mission is Fundraising for Animas High School. While Animas is a public, tuition free school, we still have expenses for our facility and daily operations that require supplemental fundraising efforts. Our fundraising strategy is as follows:
Fall Friendraiser-November 14, 2012: This is our annual parent and community event at the Henry Strater Theater where we showcase students and their projects. Be sure to save the date.

Annual Parent Appeal Letter-November: This is where we explain our needs to our parents, based on our desires to enrich our educational offerings and our school’s immediate needs.
Spring Sports Sale-April: This event is held at the Boys and Girls Club of La Plata County, where we sell all types of sports gear at bargain prices to all members of the community.
Student Coffee Sale-Spring (date TBA): This is an opportunity for us to partner with a local fair trade organic coffee roaster, and ask our students to sell coffee.
Value Cards and Office Depot Rewards: These are 2 simple options for our parents to participate in and the school benefits from your purchases! Feel free to email your name, phone number, and value card number to pac@animashighschool.com
In addition to these efforts, other PAC activities include:
Back to School Picnic: Friday, September 14 from 4-7 p.m. at Rotary Park
Teacher Appreciation Luncheon: Friday, December 21st
Annual AHS Parent Survey
On-going Volunteer Opportunities at the School, including cleaning, office assistance, and other opportunities.
Below is our schedule of meetings for the year. Remember that Animas High School is a direct result of our community's feedback, input and efforts! We look forward to your participation at Animas High School this year!
