Homecoming Dance
The Homecoming Dance for 2005 is fast approaching, but there is some information that AHS students and families need to be aware of. All freshmen are welcome to attend the dance; however, they will be limited to guests from Arapahoe High School. Sophomores, juniors and seniors that are bringing a guest from another school should stop by Mr. Routh’s located in the guidance center to pick up an approval form. All forms are due signed and completed PRIOR to the dance, so don’t wait until the last minute.
Picture id’s, such as student id or driver’s license, are required to gain attendance at the dance. Dress appropriately, (e.g., no jeans or shorts); those of you inviting guests, you are responsible for making sure your guest is dressed appropriately. Dance attendees must be under the age of 21. If you have any questions or comments, please see Mr. Routh in the Guidance Office.

The AHS Book Shelf
As promised last week, the AHS Book Shelf is now available. This is a new feature that the library is hosting this year. The purpose of the AHS Bookshelf is to recommend titles to our students, staff and community. The recommendations are from our staff and will feature a short summary of the book with a recommended audience. The titles will be from all areas of interest including children’s books. Check the Bookshelf frequently for new and additional titles. All recommendations are reviewed by the AHS library staff and include information on whether the book is available through our school library. We hope that you will enjoy this new service and find it useful when looking for that perfect book.
