Greetings, Charger families!
Join us for our first Agoura High School Parent Faculty Club meeting on Wednesday, September 16!
The meeting will be at 9am at the Agoura Hills Library Community Room (we do this offsite so you can actually find a place to park). We serve good food, have great conversations and answer your burning questions. This month, we will introduce many of our AHS administrators and also welcome candidates running for LVUSD school board. The full agenda and committee reports can be found here.
Also on Wednesday, of course, is Back-to-School Night. We start off with special meetings by grade and then go into our classroom visits. See below for details.
We have no school on Monday, September 14 and a Late Start day on Thursday, September 17. Mark you calendars!
Liz Cangelosi and Debbie Lopez
Co-Presidents, AHS PFC
