- Best Buddies, a national organization dedicated to promoting friendship between individuals of all abilities, will be meeting on Tuesdays from 2:30-3:30pm in the cafeteria and occasionally move to the community. The first meeting, for example, was a trip to Glazed Donuts. If you like friendship, fun, and the occasional maple cream donut, this could be the club for you! Please contact Mr. Kusek at kusekc@arps.org for more information.
- Last Call! The Theater Company's Odyssey project invites any ARHS student to join a group of 30 of their peers, each making a specialized piece of theater designed solely for one other person. Sign-ups for the design workshop - which will give you all the tools and inspiration you'll need - are on the auditorium doors until the end of the day TODAY! Open to all; no theater experience needed.

- JETS Club: The Big Day is Saturday, March 16, which is sooner than you think. By now you should have all been contacted by your team captains.

If you would like to request a fee waiver, please see Ms Blauner (or email her).
