General Announcements

Seniors pick up your tickets for graduation in the cafeteria today during lunches. See Mrs. Clark in the Guidance office if you miss that time. Thank you.

Students who desire to opt out of the 3rd hour activity on Thursday, or whose parents desire you to opt out, can do so by informing your 3rd hour teacher. You can then report to the cafeteria or the library for the duration of that activity only. Please do not leave the building.

The band program presents its annual Spring Finale Concert this Thursday at 7pm in the Theater. The Concert Band, Symphonic Band, and Wind Ensemble will be featured. Small Ensembles will be featured at 6:30pm.

Students, please be sure to clear your negative lunch balances by this Friday, May 7th. Stop by the Café between 7 am and Noon. Thank you for your help.

AHS parents will be creating a slideshow of pictures for display at After Prom. They will be collecting three kinds of pictures: pictures from throughout the school year, pictures of students preparing for Prom, and pictures from Prom and After Prom. If you have digital pictures that you would like to send in, visit the AHS web page for details on how to do that.

Attention all juniors and seniors interested in applying for Advanced Placement Science courses: The online application is available on the Science webpage, or on the individual teacher's webpage. The online application needs to be submitted by this Friday, May 7th.

Have you always wanted to use the school loud speaker? Would you like sharing the Arapahoe news for the day? If you are interested in reading the daily announcements next year, sign up for auditions with Mrs. Ayres in the Attendance Office. Auditions will be held tomorrow right after school.

SENIORS….The Library has two important dates for you to remember:

HEY WARRIORS!!
The event of the year is upon us! After Prom is a wild and wacky Journey through the Pages. Come be a Wild Thing and roar a terrible roar with Max. Walk the Yellow Brick Road with some crazies in the Land of Oz. See what happened to that poor Augustus Gloop at the Chocolate Factory. We have Great Giveaways at the end of the night. After Prom tickets are on sale in the Café for $12.00 through Friday 2nd lunch, or $15.00 at the door.

Congratulations to the Sophomore Baseball team as they improved their record to 5 and 9 by beating Overland yesterday 33-3. Come out and support the team today as they play their last home game of the season vs. Cherry Creek at 4:30.

The JV Girls' Lacrosse team traveled to Colorado Academy last night and came away with a stunning 12-2 victory. Great work, ladies! They take on Douglas County tonight at 7:00 at the Douglas County stadium, and then play cross-town rival, Heritage/Littleton on Friday to finish out their season. Go Warriors!

The Arapahoe Men's Swim and Dive team destroyed Cherokee Trail yesterday in their last dual meet of the season. Winning every event, the Warriors finished the regular season with a bang. Don't forget that B-League is this coming Saturday at Cherry Creek.
