Tomorrow we will be honored to have many guests visiting from the Wind River Indian Reservation.  This is a special day as we renew our relationship with our friends. There will be a celebration assembly at the end of second period in the Sitting Eagle Gymnasium.  Fellow Warriors, let's all help make this a special day for everyone.  

Hey Warriors! Warrior Week has been going great, but we still need your help to reach our goal of $15,000 by tomorrow! Adam’s Camp needs your support, so please donate anything and everything you can! Also, don’t forget that tomorrow is the last dress-up day, and we will be wearing our AHS 50th anniversary t-shirts to show our school spirit at the all-school assembly. Keep the donations coming!

Great work at last night's basketball game, Warriors.  Our current fundraising total is $9, 026.50.  Here are the penny wars numbers:
