  • This year's first magazine-sized issue of The Graphic is out! Grab a copy at lunch or check it out at thegraphic.arps.org. There are tons of wild, wonderful, frustrating, interesting, and inspiring things to read about.
  • What's better than kicking off Thanksgiving baking and eating early, filling ARHS with sweets, AND supporting the senior class? Not much! The annual cake auction will take place on Monday, November 19th during all lunches. But first, we need cakes! Get together with friends or a club to design and decorate a creative cake. A substantial prize to the baker of the cake with the highest bid. More specifics soon. Contact Leif Maynard, Bona Lee, or any other 2019 class council member with questions.
  • Are you an intermediate/expert skier or snowboarder? Do you want to learn to teach people with disabilities?  Join us on Thursday, Nov 15th from 2:30-4:00pm to learn more about volunteering at Mount Snow this winter.  During this meeting, some volunteers, and the program director are coming down from Vermont to talk to us about Mount Snow Adaptive sports.  This is a rewarding volunteer opportunity that also offers free lift tickets.  If you are interested email Ms. Camera at cameras@arps.org and join us in room 312 on Thursday, Nov.15th
  • SUPPORT CHILDREN PLACED IN FOSTER CARE WITH THE ARHS NHS SUITCASE PROJECT - Join the National Honor Society with our suitcase/duffle bag drive this month. New suitcases/duffle bags can be dropped off with Mrs. White in Athletics.  Later this month we will be collecting items to put in these suitcases/duffle bags.  More information on that later this month.  Please consider helping us make this a success.  Chip in with some friends to purchase a suitcase/duffle bag.  Thank you in advance for your support!
