Library Information - Students, if you have any overdue books, they need to be returned prior to Winter Break. If you want to renew a book bring it by.

AHS is currently in the process of putting together a foreign exchange program to Incheon, South Korea. in February, 10 male students will be visiting AHS, and will stay with 5 AHS host families (2 boys per home). They will follow the class schedule of the host student, practices, and activities. After the 10 days they will experience tourist sites, amusement parks, and activities here in So. Cal. Then during our spring break, you will visit and stay with them in Incheon, S. Korea, experience their campus, sites, and activities. Basic requirements to be a host family and travel to S. Korea include:

Host two male students for 10 days.
Having 1 room for the two male students to stay in. This may be an extra room, or your own while you stay in another.
Treat them as a member of your own family and provide meals.
A small fee would be required to travel to South Korea. It is very minimal and a huge deal since all meals, experiences, tours, travel, and flights will be covered by the exchange program.

All students are welcome to apply for this amazing opportunity! If this sounds great to you, then join us for our PARENT meeting Wednesday 12/11/19 6pm in the cafeteria. And feel free to ask Mr. Pineda with any questions in A23.

November 16 and 17: Free SAT vs. ACT Practice Test Weekend. Help your students discover which test is right for them in our Free Practice Test Weekend on 11/16 and 11/17.

To help them choose, we're hosting free practice tests that allow attendees to try every section on both tests and see which is right for them. Copy & paste the below to send to your students: Join Kaplan's Free SAT vs. ACT Practice Test Weekend. Try both tests to see which is right for you, November 16 or 17. Plus join our experts to review your results and learn key strategies. Save your seat.
