Wellness Center
The Wellness team hopes everyone has a restorative and restful summer break. This year we had the privilege of serving over 200 hundred unique students with over 2150 visits. We love supporting students and look forward to doing the same next year! Below is a list of summer resources for those seeking connection or mental health support while we are away from school. Friendly reminder, Wellness team emails will be closed over the summer and we will not see any referrals until we return to school in August.
It’s sad to see our seniors go but we’re so proud of the work they’ve put in to move on to bigger and better things. Congrats to them and we look forward to seeing returning students and incoming freshmen for the 24-25 school year! Cheers to a great summer!

SENIOR CAR RALLY
Thank you so much to Linda Choi, Mendy Gonzalez, and all the volunteers for leading the planning of Friday’s car rally! Such a fun event for our graduating seniors and we appreciate all of their work to make it happen!
AHS SUMMER GARDEN PLANS
We plan to be in the AHS garden on Tuesdays from 5:30-7:30pm during the weeks of Jun 11, 18, 25; Jul 16, 23, 30; and Aug 6. We will be working on weeding and hopefully, later in the summer, harvesting. If you'd like to come and help, please take a moment to sign up here.
When we start to harvest we hope to have enough to share with our extended AHS family - staff and families. Please sign up on this form if you are interested in being notified about picking up produce. Keep in mind that pick up times will be during our work parties and we may not be able to give you much notice! Alternatively, you can just stop by on a Tuesday evening to check in, hang out, and see what is growing. We will be mulching for weeds when we return in August so we’ll need cardboard again. If you are able to donate, please remove all tape and labels. It can be dropped off in room 201 before school is out or in the hallway outside the farm (in front of the autoshop classroom door) after that.
Thanks for all of your support! If you have any questions, please reach out - LTewksbury@auhsdschools.org. Have a great summer!
