Thank you to our Board of Education for the work you do to support our students! At the November Board meeting, students offered a special thank you to Board members. Both the Grady and Dixson choirs sang and the AHHS Student Government shared personal messages of thanks and cookies they had baked. (And thank you to Music Teacher Chris Funke for organizing the performances!)

Club Fair is full of opportunities for AHHS students

One band member banged his drum, and a member of the Spirit Squad did cheers in the hallway. They were certainly attention-getting feats. And that was the idea during the AHHS Club Fair.

Each club offered at Alexander Hamilton High School had a table represented and students in all grades had an opportunity throughout the day on Nov. 22 to stop by and chat with club members and hopefully sign up to join.

Regeneron Day of Giving introduces students to the fun of science

For a few minutes Grady Elementary School was under siege by some medieval weapons: catapults. Fortunately, no one was hurt and there was no damage to the building. Rather, it was all in good fun and more than a few laughs were had.

Students made miniature catapults and shot rolled up aluminum balls and globs of clay at a target on the gym wall. The Catapult Challenge was just one of several activities’ students engaged in during the Regeneron Day of Giving held on Oct. 20.
