ALL IN-SCHOOL STUDENTS:

To limit the number of people in the building, Freshman Orientation is for students only. Masks will be required to be worn by all staff and students. Parents: Please check your student for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 and take their temperature, just as you would for a normal school day. Any student that is not feeling well or has a fever should stay home.

You will receive your iPad as a part of orientation. You must turn in your Chromebook, $10 iPad fee, and fill out Final Forms to receive your iPad. Fill out your Final Forms before you arrive for orientation. During orientation, you will be able to take a tour of the building, go through your schedule, find your classrooms, meet your teachers, set up your iPad, and hear from guidance counselors and AHS juniors and seniors about what it's like to be a student at AHS.

There will be a video for parents of Freshmen made available as a part of the Virtual Open House during the evening of August 24th.
