Accel Night Preview—April 12 During 3rd period on Wednesday, April 12, students were given an opportunity to explore the various AP courses available at AKHS/main campus. Below is a listing of courses available on the main campus. Please join us for Accel Night on Thursday, April 13 at 6:00 p.m. in the main media center.

We are very excited to let you know that we have just received approval and fund-ing for an after school 2nd Quarter Credit Recovery Program from Title One! We will run the program in the Main Media Center and it will be open till 5:00 p.m. to allow students to have a place to work on credit recovery work and on their current 3rd quar-ter assignments to avoid being in the same position next quarter. Teachers can send their credit recovery packet to Title One and the tutors will make copies for the students who come to after school credit recovery. We will collect the assignments and return the assignments for the teachers to grade. Teachers who want their students to just make up missing assignments from their gradebook also don’t have to do anything except tell the Title One tutors and the missing assignments report will be provided to any and all students who show up for after school credit recovery.

Our program after school is also not just for credit recovery. We will give students a place to work on their school work while they re waiting for their ride home, practice and/or any sports event. Parents, please encourage your child to come to the main media center any day from 2:00—5:00 for 2nd Quarter Recovery. We will be glad to help all students who attend.
