Some of Mrs. Yeakey’s guidance classes took time to reflect on the valuable lessons they’ve learned during specials this year! Each student created a flower pot filled with ideas, memories, and skills they’ve grown throughout the year. Our bulletin board is now blooming with positivity and pride! Great job, students!


Advance community, we need your help. We have become aware that the 1975 state championship banner that hung in the old gym is missing. If anyone has any information regarding this, please contact the school.

The AHS Golf team returned from a brief hiatus this year and had a strong showing at the district tournament, held in Eugene at Redfield Golf Course. The Hornets placed 5th out of 14 teams and Cole Curtis qualified for the State Championships next week in New Bloomfield. Great effort by the team and coaches. Congratulations! #HornetPride!
