GEORGE WILLIAMS COLLEGE REPRESENTATIVE VISITS AHHS
8/31/2021: AHHS students were able to meet with the George Williams College representative.
The function of these visits is multifaceted. In part, the visits serve to spread interest in their schools by educating students about the many programs and activities available there. In addition, the visits serve as an initial point of contact between students and colleges, allowing students to express their interest in a school and to establish a contact at the school itself.
If you are interested in a college that is visiting your high school, meeting with the college rep is highly advisable. This will allow you the chance to meet face-to-face with the rep and ask specific questions while also providing you the chance to let the college know that you’re interested in attending.
It’s also an opportunity to make contact with a person who may be evaluating your application in the future, since in many cases, the reps who visit are actually admissions officers from the college. Sometimes, you might even be able to get an early read on your transcripts, test scores, and course selections to help assess your fit at a particular college and to help figure out what you can do during the remaining months to improve your chances of getting in.
NEXT COLLEGE REP VISITS:
SEPT. 3-MCC
SEPT. 9-VERTO EDUCATION
SEPT. 14-WESTERN IL
Menu change 8/31: Hamburger instead of Taco
Alden-Hebron Middle School parents: Don't forget to mark your calendars for parent night on September 1st at 6:00 p.m.
District 19 has 2 positive cases of COVID for a total of 2 reported for the 2021-2022 school year. The people that need to know have already been contacted. Therefore, if no one has spoken to you personally, this doesn't affect you, and there is no need for concern. All steps and protocols have been taken and are being followed. We wanted to remind you that we aim to remain transparent and informative through this process. We appreciate your continued flexibility during this time. Please be vigilant in understanding the procedure for determining when our school community must be informed of a positive COVID case. We will only notify those individuals who are considered close contacts to a positive case. It is critical that we not disclose positive cases to anyone other than those being directly impacted or at risk. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out.
Per our fall reopening guide, it’s important to know that the district will not send daily emails regarding each individual positive case. The district will update positive cases on Fridays if/when new cases occur.

El Distrito 19 tiene 2 casos positivos de COVID para un total de 2 reportados para el año escolar 2021-2022. Las personas que necesitan saber ya han sido contactadas. Por lo tanto, si nadie te ha hablado personalmente, esto no te afecta y no hay necesidad de preocuparse. Todos los pasos y protocolos se han tomado y se están siguiendo. Queríamos recordarles que nuestro objetivo es seguir siendo transparentes e informativos a través de este proceso. Agradecemos su continua flexibilidad durante este tiempo. Por favor, esté atento para comprender el procedimiento para determinar cuándo nuestra comunidad escolar debe ser informada de un caso positivo de COVID. Solo notificaremos a aquellas personas que se consideren contactos cercanos de un caso positivo. Es fundamental que no divulguemos los casos positivos a nadie que no sean aquellos que se ven directamente afectados o en riesgo. Si tiene alguna pregunta o inquietud, comuníquese con nosotros.
Según nuestra guía de reapertura de otoño, es importante saber que el distrito no enviará correos electrónicos diarios con respecto a cada caso positivo individual. El distrito actualizará los casos positivos los viernes si / cuando ocurran nuevos casos.

McHenry County Resources
The Birth to Three Playgroup is still on for today, but is MOVED location to the Hebron Community Park on Price Rd. If you have any questions, please call the Elementary Office.
Thank you to all who came to the Corn Roast and stopped by the prenatal to three teachers for some craft fun!
Update:
A slight change in time for tonight’s home opening volleyball game vs. Hiawatha, FS at 5:30 and Varsity at 6:30. Fans are allowed to attend but everyone is required to wear a mask at all times and socially distance as much as possible.
I understand that there is a question regarding gator masks. Last year they were not allowed however, this year if they are thick enough and can stay up, we will be allowing them. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact your child’s building principal or Bria Spiniolas our district nurse.
Thank you,
Tiffany Elswick

Entiendo que hay una pregunta con respecto a las máscaras gator. El año pasado no se les permitió, sin embargo, este año si son lo suficientemente gruesos y pueden mantenerse arriba, los permitiremos. Si tiene alguna pregunta, no dude en ponerse en contacto con el director del edificio de su hijo o Bria Spiniolas, nuestra enfermera del distrito.
Gracias
Tiffany Elswick
