Greetings, Charger families!
We hope you enjoyed Back-to-School-Night last Wednesday. Our children will always remember this time of their lives and it's great to meet the teachers who make such an impact on them. Thank you to everyone for spending the evening at AHS!
As we mentioned, the Agoura High School Parent Faculty Club exists to support our school and our students in direct and meaningful ways. We don't sell products, host read/spell/jog-a-thons, throw auctions or anything of the sort. We ask for a modest, direct donation of $250 per student to supplement our classroom materials, provide teachers with extra training, contribute to added personnel on campus and so much more. If you haven't yet made your one-time donation, please do so now by clicking here or go to www.pay4schoolstuff.com. It's easy and then we don't bug you again!
Liz Cangelosi and Debbie Lopez
Co-Presidents, AHS PFC
