Principal's Message
AJHS Family,
This past week was a good one with our students taking the PreACT 8/9 and our middle school basketball teams tipping off their season. We are looking forward to another great week that will include Halloween, a Remote Learning Day, and our Black Bears hosting the first round of the AHSAA Football playoffs!
