First Week of School!

Everyone remembers their first day at AHN, their new uniform, the anticipation of making new friends and what the year would bring. I joined as a seventh grader and thought it was the greatest gift my parents gave me. There is something special about AHN, you become a lifetime member to this community. Our alumnae community consists of over 4,000 members and it is our responsibility to continue to be AHN ambassadors for our school to thrive. Please take time to set up your AHN Connect this month, it is our new Community & Alumnae Association.

Throughout the year, you will hear from me as I engage in conversation with our alumnae seeking opportunities we can all donate our time, talents and treasure and be together. I look forward to hearing from you, and you can reach me at kamcdermott@ahns.org.

God Bless!

Share Your Time on AHN's Day of Service

Connecting with Campus Minister and Music Teacher Theresa Moran

I had the opportunity to catch up with Theresa and the exciting opportunities she is planning for our students on AHN's Day of Service on Thursday, October 3, and we also discussed our AHN Gives Back initiative.

We are seeking sponsorship for bus transportation and lunches for students and if any alumnae would like to participate during this special day. If your organization is willing to organize a service project, please also let me know.
