We hope that you have been having an enjoyable summer. As we are now almost halfway through August, we wanted to share a few initial updates with you. We will be sending a more comprehensive update at the end of next week.
Student Schedules Update
Schedules for the 2026-27 school year are now available in Aspen. Please see this update for more information: https://ahs.attleboroschools.com/o/ahs/article/3063196
Freshmen News
We have two important updates for our incoming freshmen and their families.
Chromebook Distribution - Monday, August 24, from 9:00 to 11:00
Students should bring their old Chromebooks and chargers and exchange them for new ones (if they did do so at their middle school in June).
If you cannot make it on Monday, then you can get your Chromebook at Freshmen Orientation.
Recommended distribution times
9:00 - last name A through C
9:30 - last name D through L
10:00 - last name M through P
10:30 - last name Q through Z
Freshmen Orientation - Wednesday, August 26, at 6:00 pm
Families can park at the front or rear of the building.
Students who weren’t able to get Chromebooks on Monday, August 24, will have a chance to do so starting at 5:30 on August 26
School Supplies
Our new building has state of the art technology within it. As such, the primary school supply that all students will need to bring with them to their classes will be their school-issued Chromebook. Students should bring their fully charged Chromebook and charger to school everyday. Students with course specific supply needs will be notified of them in the first few days of the school year.
Below is a list of potential general supplies your family may consider purchasing. None of these items are required:
Backpack: Very few high school students use lockers; therefore, backpacks are relatively standard. Please select one that is comfortable, functional, and able to fit a Chromebook and charger.
Planner/Agenda: Being organized is crucial to success at the high school level. It is recommended that students have a planner/agenda that has enough space on each day to list items. You can use your Chromebook for this but a physical one can be an alternative.
Paper: Students should bring in some form of paper that works best for them: notebooks, loose-leaf paper in binders, graph paper, etc are all acceptable.
Writing Utensils: Students should bring in some form of writing utensil. Pens or pencils are acceptable; some may also want to use highlighters.
Calculators: Although some math and science classes will utilize a scientific calculator, it is not advisable to buy an expensive calculator until the teacher has met with the class.
Organization: Staying organized is a crucial component of success in high school. Consider an organization system that works best for you: binders, folders, etc.
Athletics
