Good evening, Andover High School Families, this is Jimmy D’Andrea, Principal of Andover High School, with your Sunday evening message. Tomorrow we will follow a Day 5 schedule.
Success of Graduation
Congratulations to our 415 graduates, and thank you to everyone who made our graduation ceremony so successful last Monday. While there were many people who helped, I want to extend a special thank you to Ms. Aixa de Kelley and Ms. Alicia Linsey for leading the graduation committee!
Thank You for Senior Safari Support
Thank you to all of the individuals who contributed to an amazing Senior Safari on Monday night! Please take a moment to read this thank-you note from the Senior Safari Committee. Whether you served on the planning team, volunteered your time or donated items, you played a very important role in keeping our seniors safe on the night after graduation. Special thanks to Ms. Lee Ann Ryan, the coordinator of the event this year!
Second Semester Exams: Friday, June 12 – Wednesday, June 17
Second semester exams begin Friday, June 12, and end Wednesday, June 17. Each morning there will be two 90-minute exam blocks, and students are required to attend these blocks for every class. After the lunch period, each teacher will have availability for academic support, and students will also be able to study in the cafeteria or library. School buses will run on their regular schedules, but students are not required to remain at school after the exam blocks if they have other forms of transportation.
Global Pathways Scholars Program: Interest Form for Freshmen
Our Global Pathways Scholars Program is a three-year opportunity that includes world language study, immersive experiences, service learning, and a Capstone research project. Current freshmen are invited to complete the freshman interest form to learn more.
Class Board Applications for Current Sophomores and Juniors
Class boards plan activities to bring together the students in a particular grade level. Current sophomores and juniors are invited to apply for their respective class boards for the upcoming year. Current juniors can apply for the senior class board, and current sophomores can apply for the junior class board.
Students to Students Mentor Application for Current Sophomores and Juniors
Students to Students is a mentoring program for new students to Andover High School, including freshmen and transfer students, that meets once per 8-day cycle throughout the school year. Current sophomores and juniors who are interested in becoming mentors can apply for an interview.
Yearbooks Still Available
We have a small number of 2026 yearbooks left. Students who would like to purchase one can bring $100 cash to room 251 before or after school. Please contact Mrs. Michelle Chachus at michelle.chachus@andoverma.us if you have any questions.
New Medication Order Requirements
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health has updated its guidelines regarding the administration of medication in public schools. Effective immediately, all medication orders for both prescription and non-prescription medications must be dated within the current academic year, July 1 to June 30. Any medication orders on file this year will expire on June 30, and a new, signed medication order from your child’s licensed prescriber must be submitted for the upcoming school year. For more information, please refer to this medication administration letter from our school nurses, Ms. Heidi Katz and Ms. Melissa Sucharewicz. If you have any questions, please call the AHS Clinic at (978) 247-5502.
As always, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time if you have questions or concerns. Thank you for your support of Andover High School, and have a great evening!
