General Announcements
The Muses are in, the Muses are in!  After a rapid sellout of our first 100 magazines, the Muse has ordered 100 more magazines, and they are now here at the school.  If you missed out the first time around and are still interested in buying a copy of this special edition, which include student and faculty writing, bring $15 to Mr. Miles in the Language Arts office this week.  We expect this batch to sell out too! 

This is tryout week for our Champion Color Guard! Girls, boys, anyone interested should attend the informational meeting tonight at 7:00 pm in the Band Room. Tryout clinics will be Wednesday from 3:30-5:30, Friday from 5:00-7:00, and tryouts are Saturday from 11:00-2:00. We hope to see you there to be a part of this awesome team!

It's that time of year when all negative cafeteria charges need to be paid off, AND, no new charges may be allowed.  Please put funds into your account or keep cash on hand to make purchases in the cafeteria.  Thank you so much Warriors!!

We have over 500 students with outstanding fees.  Students with unpaid fees will be delayed at arena scheduling.  Please check infinite campus to see if your fees are paid, or check the list by the bookkeepers office.  Do not risk not getting that class you really want because your fees were not paid!

Athletics

Let’s hear it for our 9th and 10th grade track and field athletes!  Both boys and girls teams ran circles around the competition – winning 1st place at the Centennial League Fresh/Soph Championships. 

Last Friday night, your AHS girls’ Varsity lacrosse team finished off their historic regular season with a decisive 15 - 4 victory over Heritage/Littleton.  This victory resulted in the Warriors, once again, winning the coveted Three Sisters’ Trophy for the third year in a row.  The girls played extremely well.  Their energetic play provided an exclamation point to their wonderful season which resulted in the first ever Centennial League Championship for Arapahoe girls’ lacrosse.  The evening also included the ceremony honoring our Seniors.  We would like to congratulate them for their hard work and dedication to the AHS lacrosse teams over their years at Arapahoe.  Those seniors are:  Rachel Abreu, Lauren Carpenito, Kendall Cooke, Alexy DaHarb, Kate Englert, Lizzy Gouin, Hannah Heurlin, Britt Klosterman, Chandler Ramsey, and Isley Walker.  Best of luck to all of you in your future endeavors, and a huge “Thank You” for the wonderful lacrosse you have provided for your AHS Girls’ Lacrosse fans.  You will be missed!  But the Varsity season is not over yet.  They head into the playoffs this week with a “bye” in the first round.  The second round games will be played toward the end of this week. Stay tuned for information on their first playoff game.  Go Warriors, you are the best!


Today is the last day of the season so come cheer on the Jr. Varsity baseball team as they take on the Smokey Hill Buffalos today!  Stop by and cheer on your favorite players and have a snack at the concession stand today at 4:30.  Go Warriors!  Beat the Buffalo's!

All boys interested in playing tennis next fall are encouraged to attend an informational meeting tomorrow at 6:30 pm in Room E-9.  Bring your parents along and learn about registration procedures and plans for the season, including summer camp and tryouts. Also, check the tennis website for updates throughout the spring and summer.  See you Tuesday!

Warriors always take care of one another.
