- This week, all Massachusetts school districts were informed of a new COVID testing option that is being highly recommended by DESE and the MA Department of Health. Beginning January 31st, our Districts will be implementing this option, which discontinues routine contact tracing and the Test and Stay program, and replaces them with weekly, at-home antigen testing (rapid tests) for students and staff.The deadline to enroll in the program, in order to begin receiving a free bi-weekly box of two rapid tests starting on January 31, is next Thursday, January 27 by 4:00 p.m. To enroll please complete the form at https://forms.gle/

- ASVAB Test at ARHS - Thursday, February 10th 9am-12pm - Sign Up By January 26th On Thursday, February 10th, ARHS will host the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). The ASVAB is a multiple-aptitude battery that measures developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success in the military. If you are a junior or senior interested in enlisting in the military, or learning about potential careers as a result of the ASVAB test, you must sign up in Guidance and Counselor. The test is around 3 hours long. You will have to get permission from your parent or guardian, and the teachers from the classes that you will miss. Your name and scores will not be sent to military recruiters. A second session reviewing your scores and careers indicated will be scheduled after the ASVAB exam. See Ms. Cuffee-Gray for permission slips.
