Welcome Class of 2023!
This August, all incoming 9th graders will have the opportunity to attend the AHS Fresh Start Orientation Retreat at Mt. Ashland Lodge. This unique overnight program will prepare new students for the transition into high school with a wealth of fun and valuable activities led by AHS Leadership Staff and trained junior and senior high school counselors. Students will learn helpful problem-solve techniques, build meaningful friendships, get the answers to high school’s Big Questions, and much more. If you have a cool talent (singing, playing music, poetry, dance, etc.) we’d love for you to perform at our Open Mic !
You will be receiving information packets in the mail over the summer about your session dates. Ashland High School looks forward to meeting you in August!
Students will be assigned to a session based on their Grizz Academy classes-- if they are unable to attend their assigned session they are welcome to attend either of the other sessions.
