From Principal Tharyn Mulberry
I would like to begin this letter by thanking you all for a wonderful spring and to remind you that this week is Teacher Appreciation week. So please make sure you let your student’s teachers know how much we appreciate their work with our students!
I would also like to extend an open invitation to any parent who wishes hear more about our school to take part in the SAC which meets the 2nd Wednesday of every month. As always, call me or stop by office if you have any questions or concerns.

Senior Events
Rent-A-Senior Day
On Saturday, June 1st, the senior class will walk across the stage of the Benedict Music Tent and become graduates of Aspen High School.
The senior class is responsible for any expenses related to graduation and will be holding Rent-A-Senior Day to raise funds for their big event! Please click here to read more information and to help support our seniors. Please contact Sarah Benson (sbenson@aspenk12.net) with any questions. There are only a few groups left, so submit your request now!
S1 Academic Honors
Check out the impressive list of students we would like to recognize on our website. Our Academic Honors list can be found under the "Quick Links" header on the High School's home page. https://www.aspenk12.net/Page/5564
Students that earn a GPA of 3.5 in a semester are recognized as being on the AHS Honor Roll. Academic letter awards (and pins) are given to students that have achieved a GPA of 3.75.
We are pleased to see so many of our students included on our Honor roll and Academic letter award list for the first semester of the school year. Due to our limited supply of chenille letters and pins earlier in the year, we are just now able to distribute formal notifications and awards. Students will be given their award notification letter (and corresponding pin) at school within the next week.
Please direct any questions regarding Academic Honors to Aspen High School Registrar, Jolaine Pfeifer
