AHHS VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY. This Sunday November 6th, 9 to Noon
Hello AHHS Volunteers,
Our next ecological stewardship day will be Sunday, October 6th from 9 a.m. to Noon. We are going to host our second stewardship workday at Tamarack West, located on the south side of Tryon Grove Road 1.2 miles west of the intersection of Routes 12 and 31.
We are hopeful that we will have a number of students from the Alden-Hebron High School. Volunteer Forms are available in the HS Office & attached to the email Mrs. VanderPal sent out 10/31.
A map to the Tamarack West site from the intersection of Routes 12 and 31 is shown here:

*Wear clothes and boots that can get dirty, and please bring your own drinking water. Please wear jeans, not leggings as they will collect tough to remove seeds. We’ll have hand tools, work gloves, safety glasses, and perhaps some pre-packaged snacks.
An RSVP is appreciated, so if you know you will be attending please give me a heads up. For those who may be attending who are under age 18, you will need a parent or guardian to sign the Volunteer form indicating that you are authorized to attend; you can either email the signed form back to me or bring it to the workday. (You do not need to sign, just your parent/guardian.)
As always, if there is any question of weather check in with Pete Jackson at 224-612-1803 if you have a question.
We hope to see you out at one of these events!

D19 News: SAVE THE DATE! Nov. 11th at 9 AM
Please join us in honoring all of the men and women who have served our country. District 19 will be hosting the Veterans Day program on Nov. 11th. The program begins at 9 AM and it will be held in the AH Middle/High School gym.
NOTE: If you have or know a local Veteran who should be included in this program, please contact Nanci at 815.648.2442 with his/her name and address so that a formal invitation may be sent.
D19: The District’s Operating & Maintenance Budget addresses only a portion of annual facility needs with funds from the tax levy and grants. We prioritize emergency needs first, then planned capital maintenance projects, to the degree budgets allow. Recent projects include the MS/HS door & transom replacement (now meets fire safety code) and a scheduled boiler replacement (spring 2023).
