Students,

Congratulations to Chorale and Hurricane Singers for their great performances at last Saturdays' Local Vocal Chord Bowl acapella benefit concert.  Along with adult and college groups, our ARHS singers helped raise over $4000 for music programs here at ARHS and at Northampton High School.  Kudos go to our Stage Manager Aviva Weinbaum, Sound Technician Jack Tuthill, and our student MCs Michayla Roberston-Pine, Liam Ashburn, and Lourdes Jean-Louis.

The incredible one-woman play Natural Shocks was written in response to the senseless gun violence in this country and its connection to toxic masculinity.  An event at Northampton High School on April 20th (Friday of break) at 7 pm will put on this play followed by musical performances featuring choir students from ARHS as well as NHS. Tickets can be bought at the door and will serve as donations to Everytown for Gun Safety/Moms Demand Action.  For more information, see Eliza Carson.
