Good morning and happy Monday-

It was nice to have an extra hour of sleep after a very busy week and our first full week in a while!

I will be out of the building at the MIAA Sportsmanship Summit on Thursday, November 6. Pete Connery and 9 of our students will also attend.

Please remember to sign your self-assessment and goals in Teachpoint.

Make sure to check out AHSTS’s Production of Love/Sick this weekend!
Advanced tickets are available for $11.99 at www.ahsts.com and can be purchased up to one hour before showtime. Tickets at the door are $15.

Show Dates & Times: Friday, November 7 at 7:00 PM; Saturday, November 8 at 7:00 PM; Sunday, November 9 at 2:00 PM

About the Show: Written by John Cariani, Love/Sick is a collection of slightly twisted, completely hilarious short plays. Set on a Friday night in an alternate suburban reality, this quirky comedy explores the joys and struggles of love. With imperfect lovers and dreamers at its core, Love/Sick is an unromantic comedy for the romantic in everyone.


Congratulations to all of our athletics teams on a great fall season. We are now into playoff season, and we hope you can make it out to a game to cheer on our students. Below are some updates from Pete. 

Volleyball won their Round of 32 game against Holliston this past Friday and will travel to Duxbury on Tuesday for a 5pm start in the Round of 16. 

Boys Soccer - TVL CHAMPS!!! Boys soccer will host Wayland HS in a Round of 32 game here at AHS on Tuesday at 6pm. 

Football - TVL CHAMPS!!! Football will host Danvers HS here at AHS Friday night at 6pm 

XC took 2nd in the TVL Showcase in both the Boys and Girls Divisions and will continue on in the postseason this weekend at Northfield Mountain 

Field Hockey was the #23 seed in the MIAA State Tournament and lost in the round of 32 to Westwood. 

The Cheer team qualified for regionals this weekend and will compete on November 16th at Marshfield HS. They won the Sportsmanship Award at the TVL Championships Sunday.

Save the Date! On Monday, November 10th, starting at 3:15 p.m., our AHS Unified Basketball Team will host the TVL Jamboree, bringing together all TVL Unified Teams. The event will conclude around 5:15 pm. 

 

MetroWest Adolescent Health Survey: For your planning purposes, there will be no X-block on Wednesday, November 19. All students will participate in the Metrowest Adolescent Health Survey. It will be an extended block, and a schedule will be shared soon. This is an important survey taken by students around the region every other year. We use this information to help guide curriculum and programming.

Good afternoon- Thanks to everyone who helped to make New Student Orientation a success last night. It was great to see so many students and staff in the building. I am looking forward to seeing you all on Monday. We start at 8AM in the auditorium. There will be some members of the Class of 2026 painting their parking spots on Monday afternoon. Please try to park in the faculty parking lot or in the back of the building if you usually park in the student section.  New staff, please join the staff  Google Classroom . All information sent to faculty/staff will be housed here. The  class code is a5ca6a4. The custodians have been working hard to make sure each classroom has the correct number of desks (minus study halls). There may be a few classrooms off a desk or two based on student moves at the end of this week. If anyone has furniture in their rooms that is not being used, please let me know. We are short some L-shaped desks, under-desk file cabinets, and bookcases....

Good morning- I hope the adjustment to the clocks springing forward hasn't thrown you off too much. I love that it means more light in the afternoon/evening.  On Thursday, March 13 year 2/3 teachers from Milford and Nipmuc High Schools will be here for learning walks. I have shared a schedule with impacted teachers but it may change over the next few days. Thank you for your flexibility and willingness to welcome new educators.  I am sure you saw Jim's message that the School Committee will hear our proposal on Competency Determination for the Class of 2025 at their meeting on Wednesday, March 12. I hope to share an update at our faculty meeting on Thursday, March 13, after school in the library . The meeting will involve MCAS training. As you are aware, the state has moved to a new portal so it will be important information for everyone to hear. Training for staff that do not attend faculty meetings will be scheduled at another time. Following the training, we will be walking...
