Happenings
Get your schedules in Homeroom!
Good Evening,
This is a reminder that Monday, October 15th is the first day of the 2nd quarter and our 7th grade students’ first day with a new elective. 8th Grade schedules will remain unchanged. Once again, we have scheduled a special Homeroom period to distribute schedules to our students. Schedules are not available online. The Homeroom period will begin promptly at 8: 35 and end at 8:41. Homeroom will be the first period of the day for all students at AJHS. The homeroom assignments can be found using this link and will be posted on the doors of the classrooms. All students will attend periods 1-6 after the Homeroom period.
We want to thank you for your attention to this important matter.
We are looking forward to seeing your students here tomorrow!
Sincerely,
Rich Moran
The AJHS Drive for Schools is on!
We need your help so that our students win!
Enter for your chance to win a New Subaru Crosstrek or a new Toyota Prius C, $25,00.00 in cash or many other prizes. Tickets will be sold from 9/20 to 10/19. You can purchase a single ticket for $5.00 or receive 6 tickets for $25.00 dollars. The drawing for the cars, cash and many other prizes (http://beachboardwalk.com/driveforschools/) will be held on Sunday, October 28th at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. 100% of the proceeds from ticket sales goes directly to classrooms and to the AJHS Home and School Club and will support students and staff by providing funding for, Visual and Performing Arts, Technology, and the integration of technology into the classroom as well as the purchasing of supplemental materials and supplies for our classrooms!
