Dear Osprey Students and Families,
At our NEST Meeting today, our faculty and staff described the range of choices available to AHS students for Osprey Week 2020, which takes place
March 9-13, 2020
.
Osprey Week is a week-long educational adventure that allows students and staff to learn new content and develop skills while participating in enriching hands-on
activities
.
AHS’ culture is strengthened through shared experiences
which build stronger relationships between students, staff and
community
members. For Osprey Week, our classroom is the world beyond our school walls.
Our 2020 Osprey Week offerings are posted
here
.
Over the next few days, please talk over the available options to see what works best for your family.
On this Friday, November 1, we will send out a survey to all students via email, asking them to indicate their top FIVE choices.
Students will need to complete this survey by midnight, Sunday November 3. Our goal is to give students one of their top choices; factors we use to determine placement include seniority, on time sign up, whether a student has received first choice in the past, and consideration of the overall makeup of the group.
Osprey Week scholarships are available, and
students
will need to fill out the
Osprey Week Scholarship form
to apply. We are selling chocolate to fill this scholarship fund, and we gladly accept donations to the Osprey Week Scholarship Fund at any time! In the past, we have been able to cover up to 50% of the cost of a trip for scholarship students
(please note we are not able to cover 50% of the cost of the Thailand Osprey Week
).
For more information about Osprey Week, including photos from past years, please visit the
Osprey Week website
. As always, please reach out with any questions or concerns.
Cheers,
Libby
