You spoke -We listened - The Website Responds Print

As part of the public meeting held in the ACHS gym on 2-8-10 many requests for information were made and one was about information on the website.  Specifically it was asked if the board meeting minutes and agendas were posted on the website.  I (Mr. Niehaus) had to respond - yes, but I am not 100% sure where they are and how current they are.  I thought they were on the left side - and I was right.  Look for them under the District Unit #10 section.  There are Board Meeting Agendas and Board Meeting Minutes.   To be honest this area of the website needed a little tidying up.  We had minutes in agendas that need to be moved.  It is all fixed now!

The ACHS Student Council is again holding their Pennies for Patients drive for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  The student council is challenging the A2 classes during the month of February.  Last year we raised $2,986.34.  Our goal this year is $3,000.00.  Small prizes will be awarded each week for the class that is in the lead.  The class that raises the most money will receive a pizza party.  If you would like to help us raise money for this cause you may write a check payable to the Leukemia and Lymphoma society and send it to the high school to the attention of Teresa Lee.
