begin doing marketing! You'll need your own vehicle or access to one and a
smartphone. They are looking for folks who are able to work at least 3
days a week from 4-7pm to do door-to-door marketing and sales. Wages are

- Students wishing to use the library during lunch should come
prepared with quiet academic work and should plan to eat in the cafeteria
before coming to the library. Due to an increase in trash being left in
the library, food is not permitted at any time unless eaten in the
designated round sofa area. Thank you for helping us keep our library
clean and open to students throughout the day!
- Students Interested in Taking a College Class: If
you indicated, during course registration that you are interested in
taking a college class next year, while in high school, your A Period
Teacher will have an application with your name on it tomorrow
morning. Please pick it
up from your teacher. You do not need to print the attachments
here...they are just back up in case you lose your hard copy. To
search for courses in the Amherst College Course scheduler, make sure you set the semester to Fall 2019 and
enter search term (s). Results appear below--you have to scroll to see
them. Applications will be due April 12th, the day before our spring break. Mr.
Sadiq will hold a brief informational meeting, after school on
April 11th, for students planning on
taking a college course next year. Please plan to attend, and if your
application is ready then, we'd love it if you turned it in early. Two
notes:
1. For those planning on MVC at Amherst College for math next year,
we will select which section, based on meeting the rest of your HS needs and
based on giving everyone access to
the course. Seniors will be prioritized. On your application, please list
your first and 2nd choices.
2. We are giving you the application, now that AC has their course
schedule up, so that you can see what the options might be. You can look
and explore on-line at this time, using the link to the course scheduler
above; please do not approach
professors for permission to enroll until after ARHS has spring break and after
you have the high school permission form in hand (which we will
distribute on your first day back from break). Mr. Sadiq will explain
next steps at the meeting, if you still have questions after reading the
instructions attached to the application. Look for classes toward the end
of the day...a 12:30 class will require 3 blocks of time, a 1:30 class will
require 2 blocks of time.
- Any student wishing to serve on the jury for the
Student Written Play Festival should contact Mr. Bechtold in
person to complete a brief but important application. We'd love a
jury with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences with theater,
including having some less-experienced people on board. Stop by the
auditorium if you're interested!
- All Vehicles parked on school grounds should have a current parking permit or risk being towed. We will be checking for parking permits starting the week of March 25th. It will cost approximately $125 to retrieve a towed vehicle.

- Seniors: Applications for the ARHS local scholarships

scholarships and the application on Feb. 26 in an e-mail from Ms.
Ross. Please apply!
