Just a reminder that, due to Back to School Night on Thursday September 7,
the first AHS PTSO meeting will be held on Thursday August 31 at 7pm in the
Media Center.  Our meetings are usually held on the FIRST THURSDAYS OF THE
MONTH at 7pm.  The agenda will include a discussion & planning of upcoming
PTSO events for the 2006-07 school year.  

Also, Dr. Haas (AHS Principal) will be present to explain the format of our
NEW "8th Period" and to answer questions. (PLEASE NOTE: if you are unable to
attend the PTSO Meeting, Dr. Haas will be presenting this information again
