Dear Parents/Guardians,
We are writing to inform you about a situation that occurred today. Our school administration was made aware of a possible threat to the safety of our school community. Please rest assured that after a thorough investigation conducted in cooperation with local law enforcement, the threat was determined to be not credible. The safety and well-being of our students and staff are our top priorities. We are taking all necessary precautions and working closely with authorities to ensure the continued safety of everyone on our campus. School will continue as scheduled, and all activities will proceed as planned. Thank you to our law enforcement partners, our school community, teachers, and students in staying vigilant in keeping our schools safe.
Matthew L. Widenhoefer, Ph.D.
Superintendent

The high school entrepreneur class lead by Michelle Davis spent time today on the "Pipe Cleaner Challenge". The goal was to build the tallest tower. Students were challenged to work in a group to plan and then build the tower. Along the way just like in the business world there were obstacles in the way. They had to deal with budget cuts (could only use one arm) and relocation to another country (could not speak to each other). It was a great interactive learning experience for all.

CHECK OUT THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE NEXT BIG OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS AT AHS!
We are thrilled to announce that CELL has been awarded a grant from the Don Wood Foundation to expand our successful Indiana Pathways to Careers and Postsecondary (P-CAP) program to three new high schools in northeast Indiana.
#PCAP is designed to reach underserved students who possess high potential but are disengaged in school and are at risk of dropping out. By transforming their pathways, P-CAP prepares students for high-skill, in-demand industry careers in the local economy in sectors like advanced manufacturing. P-CAP students experience hands-on, project-based learning, integrated core classes with smaller class sizes, and connections with industry partners through workplace learning challenges.
