Senior Awards Night
Agua Fria will be hosting our annual Senior Awards Night in May. We would like to honor students who have earned awards, recognition, or scholarships. You will be receiving more information soon, however, please start collecting any letters or emails that show the scholarship name and amount that has been awarded to you. We would like you to include all offers even if you do not plan to attend that college. Please note that need-based scholarships will not be recognized.
Mrs. Ferrante-Jackson will be sending out a survey in February for students to include all awards, recognition, or scholarships that students have received. After students complete the survey, they will be required to turn in the supporting documents to her in order to be recognized and participate in the event. We look forward to celebrating our seniors!
