The word is out! Romeo and Juliet is a hit!

tonight at 7 p.m. and tomorrow night at 7 p.m. Tickets are
going fast! Don't wait to get them at the door, go to Mr. Ahern's teacher page

Once
again it’s time for the annual Halloween Candy Jar Count in the Library!! Come
down to the library and guess how many Halloween candies are in the glass jar!
The student who comes the closest to the actual amount will win the jar
full of candy! Only one guess per day, please. The winner will be
announced on Halloween during the daily announcements. Happy Halloween from
your AHS Library Staff!
Do you
owe a library fine? Want to help someone in need? Bring nonperishable food
items to the library to reduce your library fine. For each food item brought
in, your library fine will be reduced by fifty cents. This is a great way to
take care of your library fines and help someone else at the same time.
Hey
students and staff...the Stride 5k and 10k run event is this weekend. You can
still register at www.runthestride.com Come on out and run or walk
in this LPS Foundation event. We need your help representing Arapahoe. The race
is this Sunday,
October 27th in Littleton.
Next Wednesday, October
30th, Arapahoe High School has the privilege of hosting the Colorado
Supreme Court. Because of this, the library will be closed that day to
student use in order to provide a place for a breakfast and luncheon for the
justices and their clerks. The library staff realizes this will be an
inconvenience and ask that you plan ahead for your study needs. Rarely does a
school get such an opportunity to witness our legal system in action firsthand.
Your flexibility and understanding is appreciated.
Sophomores, don’t forget about the opportunity to take the PLAN,
a practice ACT test, on Saturday, November 2nd! Register in the Guidance
Office now through October 28th. The cost is $15.
Are you a
writer or an artist? Do you have art, poetry, or prose that you think the world
should see? Then submit to the Muse! The Muse is a student-run literary
and arts magazine featuring the products of Arapahoe's most talented and
creative students– and YOU can be one of them! To submit, visit the Muse
page under the activities tab on the school website.
