From course enrollment to college registration to the highs and lows of high school, our school counselors are here to help you along the way. Feel free to stop and schedule an appointment or just to talk!

It’s a busy (and exciting!) time in the counseling world.

• Seniors will begin the local scholarship process on February 2. All information and instructions will be presented to senior students in the Theater Room during their English classes, so students should come ready to listen and take notes.

• Sophomores and juniors will begin the pre-enrollment process on February 11, which includes course selections and updates to their Next Step Plans. All enrollment forms and Next Step Plans are due to students’ grade-level counselors by April 2. Forms not turned in by the deadline will result in students being placed into classes.

Students should check their class Canvas regularly and reach out to their counselor with any questions. We’re here to help!

Local Scholarships are presented to senior students during the first week of February of senior year.

Our local scholarships are made possible by the generosity of our community, offering financial support to help AHS graduates pursue their post-secondary goals at colleges, universities, or trade/technical school. Each February, senior students have the opportunity to apply through a streamlined process designed to connect them with these incredible resources. Students will be granted access to the local scholarships through a password-protected portal. They should keep the password confidential and should not share it with anyone. Please contact your child's counselor for any questions.

We have included a few websites and files with scholarship resources for your convenience.
