Hello Knight Family:
Does your student have a special talent—singing, playing the piano, acting, or something else entirely? If so, we’ve got the perfect opportunity to showcase their skills! One of our favorite annual traditions at ALAH High School is just around the corner: the Student Council’s Winter Follies!
Essentially a student talent show, Winter Follies is a fantastic way to break up the long stretch of February. This year’s event will take place on Friday, February 14th, in the afternoon. Students who want to participate can pick up an entry form in the high school office and submit it to Mrs. Benedict by January 29th. We can’t wait to see the amazing talents our students will share—mark your calendars for a fun and entertaining afternoon!
Have you checked your student’s grades in Skyward this week? Classes have been busy kicking off the semester. Next Friday, we will run eligibility that will be in effect for open campus lunch as well as extra-curricular events. The math and writing center is open beginning on Monday. This is a great place for students to get help on any math or English assignment. Please encourage your students to take advantage of this great resource.
Tonight our Knights are hosting the Arcola Purple Riders for the continued competition of the 133 Showdown. Our junior high band will be joining the high school pep band and we are recognizing the junior high boys basketball team. Help us pack the gym for a great night.
Mrs. Seegmiller
