General Announcements

As you know, we want to keep our campus drug free. We don't want drugs on our campus, so to help us, don't be surprised if some day during this semester the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office will visit with a Canine Deputy to sniff school lockers. Thank you for your support to rid our campus of all drugs.

Warrior Week is finally here, March 14th through March 18th! This year, Arapahoe will collect funds to support a local organization, Heroes Forever. Heroes Forever is a group dedicated to providing support and planning fun events for families who have a child with cancer. Student Council members will be carrying marked tennis cans throughout Warrior Week to collect money for this organization. Donations can also be placed into one of the large jugs located in the library, the front office or the DECA store. Thanks for all your support and helping make a difference Warriors!

“In support of Warrior Week, the annual Staff vs. Senior basketball game will be this Thursday evening at 7pm in the AHS main gym. There will be stupid human tricks throughout the entire night. If we raise enough money, there will also be a half-time dunk competition! So come meet the family we are supporting, hang out with friends, and watch the seniors crush the staff! Tickets are $3 presale or $5 at the door. Tickets can be purchased in the cafeteria during all lunches this week. And don’t forget to buy your Warrior Week t-shirt, on sale during both lunches. Thanks again Warriors!

Attention FBLA members; you won’t want to miss our Minute to Win It Competition today in E9. Come compete in all of our Minute to Win It challenges. Prizes will be awarded. See Ms. Swank in the business office with any questions.

Attention students interested in doing concurrent enrollment at ACC or another local state college or university: All paperwork needs to be in to your counselor by 8:00am on Friday, March 18.

The paperwork is due this Friday, March 18th in order to attend the National conference. Registration, Flight, and Hotel arrangements will be made over Spring Break…. so it will be too late if you procrastinate!
