If you answered yes to any of these questions then you should attend the Arapahoe High School Job Fair next week Tuesday after school until 4:30 in the cafeteria. Over 20 employers will be there looking to hire Arapahoe High School students. Be sure to ask employers about their available positions and bring a pen and notebook.

*Free Alive @ 25 class Tuesday March 19th at 3:45 pm - 8:15 pm in room W1874. If you are voluntarily taking the class the Sheriff's Office pays for your $79 fee.  If you are 15 1/2 you can get drivers permit after taking the class and a lot insurance companies give you a discount. This is a 4 1/2 hour class. Sign up online at www.aliveat25.us. To register for the class the password is "arapahoe". Any questions ask Deputy Englert.

*Hey Warriors! Please take the survey in your email for the next issue of The Herald, which comes out next Friday, March 22. Thanks!

*Hey Warriors!  Do you know how you hate it when LPS doesn't call snow days?!  How about showing our superintendent a little gratitude for calling TWO of them this week!  If you would like to write a short note of thanks to Superintendent Ewert, drop it off in the basket in the main office and Mrs. Pramenko will deliver them. Showing gratitude is good for your mental health. It's a tough decision to close a school district. I know he will appreciate your positive feedback. Thanks, Warriors!
