Greetings, Charger families! 

No school tomorrow! We hope you are able to sleep in, relax and enjoy the time off this Labor Day.

On Tuesday, we celebrate our AHS staff with our fall staff luncheon. We still have some spots available so click here  if you are able to drop off something, stay and serve, or help in any way. The staff is incredibly appreciative of this gesture by our parent body so we encourage you to come and participate if you can.

Also, don't forget to save the date for another day of no school on September 14 followed by our first AHS PFC meeting and Back-to-School-Night on September 16. More details to follow. Have a great week!
