General Announcements

Students interested in performing a stupid human trick during the Warrior Week charity basketball game must pick up an application from Mr. Brandberg in the World Languages office.  Applications are due today.

The Muse magazine would like to thank everyone who submitted their writings, poems, and artworks to the magazine this year.  We had a tremendous amount of good work from the student body, and decisions about acceptance were difficult.  However, we have made final decisions, and have posted a list of accepted artists, writers, and poets in the glass Muse case near the English office.  Feel free to check it out, and congratulations to all writers and artists who will have their work printed in Volume 12 of the Muse! 

TCAP Testing will be March 11, 12, and 13th for 9th and 10th graders.  Buses will run on a normal schedule.  11th and 12th graders will have a late start and should arrive at school no earlier than 11:15 a.m.  Buses will run a late pick up schedule for these students four hours later.  Class schedules are posted around the building.

Attention Warriors - We know that finding quiet study space can be a challenge at times, so we would like to let you know that on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from next week until the end of the semester, you will have access to the following quiet study spaces during periods 3 through 6. 
S12 will be open during 3rd period, N6 will be open during fourth period, C23 will be open during 5th period, and E9 will be open during 6th period.  Remember: those spaces will be available on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  The fourth period room, N6, will operate on a 2nd lunch schedule, which means that it will be open for use during and after 1st lunch, but will be closed during 2nd lunch.  If you need reminders about the room numbers, ask any teacher.

Warriors, your AHS Library could use your help!  We still have 81 library books out there.  If you have a
library book, please return it to the Attendance Office.  If you are not sure if you have a book out or not, please check the Library Overdue list on the bulletin boards in the North and South hallways as well as the bulletin board across from the Bookkeeper’s office.  No fines will be charged.  Thanks for your help!

FBLA is hosting Arapahoe's first Blacklight Volleyball Tournament on April 2nd. Sign up packets are available to FBLA members on March 12th and open to all other interested students March 13th. Teams will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis. Packets can be picked up at the next club FBLA meeting or in the business office.
