SEPTEMBER 6, 2026
Senior Homecoming Theme: “All Roads Lead to Hollywood BLVD”. The seniors had their first work party yesterday and made some headway on bringing Hollywood Blvd to life. We as parents can participate in the fun and support their efforts by donating supplies or snacks. If you have any spare wood or cardboard lying around, please email us! We’d love to put it to use if it works for our hallway plans. Additionally, please consider signing up to bring snacks and other supplies to the work parties to support our Seniors. You cansign up here. We have three more opportunities for Seniors to get involved in HOCO decorating:
- Monday, Sept 7 4:00-7:00pm at Colaco house (*Note, updated time due to the long weekend)
- Saturday, Sept 12 2:00-4:00pm at Colaco house
- Saturday, Sept 19 2:00-4:00pm at Colaco house
- Sunday, Sept 20 10:00am-4:00pm HOCO hallway decorating (Students can drop in anytime and stay for as little or as long as they’d like.)
Senior Homecoming Skit: The Friday before Homecoming, all classes will perform a skit at the homecoming rally. If your student would like to participate, they can sign up here.
Senior Parent Social: Wed, Sep 9 @ 5:00pm: Please join us at Park Bistro to catch up and have a drink before Parent Night!
Senior Parent Night: Wednesday, Sep 9 @ 6:30pm in the AHS Library. College & Career Advisor Debbie Levy and Counselor Anne Schonauer will cover post-high-school/college planning, the application process, counselor and teacher letters of recommendation, requesting/sending transcripts, Common App/college-application logistics, college visits as well as what kind of support seniors can receive from their counselors and the College & Career Center.
Counselors will begin calling in all seniors in early September to discuss post-high-school plans, including MaiaLearning, application deadlines and required documents, and to answer any questions.
Senior Sunrise + Panoramic Picture: Fri, Oct 2nd 7:00–8:30am: Please make sure this is on your calendars. We want every senior to be represented!
