Schedules and other things!

Good morning-

I hope you are all enjoying this beautiful summer.  It has been great to spend some downtime time relaxing and enjoying time with family.

Schedules:
Schedules for the 2016-2017 school year will be available in iParent/iStudent on Monday, August 8 at 2pm.  Schedules for 9th grade and new students will be mailed on Friday, August 5.  If you need a hard copy please contact Linda Chaney at lchaney@ashland.k12.ma.us.

(We do not roll over data for the new school year for another week or so.  Information on the schedule will still reflect grade, homeroom information, etc. from the 2015-2016 school year.)

All families are encouraged to sign up for an iParent account at your earliest convenience.  Follow this link to the iParent page: iParent registration

Students will receive their own iStudent account information during the first week of school.

Any student/family with a concern about their schedule can call the main office at 881-0177 to schedule an appointment with your counselor.
Guidance appointments will be scheduled August 23, 25, & 26 from 8:30am-1:30pm.
On August 24 counselors are available from 11am-3pm.  

As a reminder, blanks in the schedule are generally where a study hall would be and there is a possibility of schedule changes as we make last minute adjustments and balance classes over the next few weeks.  


Save the Dates!  

Peer Leader training will be held on Monday, August 22nd from 12-4pm.  We have decided to add juniors to the team for the 2016-2017 school year and are still looking for any junior/senior willing to serve as mentors to the Class of 2020.  Anyone interested can email me directly or click on this link to find the application (Peer Leader application).


Student Leadership Summit: August 24th from 9am-12pm (note the time change!)....all current student leaders and those interested in being leaders are encouraged to attend.  We will meet in the AHS auditorium.  This is a great opportunity for leaders from all areas of AHS to get to know each other and help to create a positive tone for the year!  Students are asked to RSVP to Linda Chaney at lchaney@ashland.k12.ma.us (so we can get an accurate count of the snacks needed).


Orientation for New Students: August 24th from 4-6pm.  9th grade and other new students will have fun, catch up old friends and make new ones while learning about the AHS culture and expectations. All are invited to join in the BBQ at the end of the orientation!  This 3rd and final orientation is for students only!


In an effort to always increase communication I will be setting up Remind accounts this year.  Please sign up if you are interested in receiving texts regarding upcoming events and important information!
