- AHS wants to focus on the whole child, providing support for student success and not focusing only on discipline
Our focus on the whole child means that we clearly understand that we need to support student success using new approaches and tools. We hope to teach students the necessary skills to help them solve problems, enhance social skills, connect with caring adults, and receive extra help when they need it. Our staff and faculty are trained to understand and address behavioral problems, while supporting and reinforcing positive relationships. Underlying all of this skill-building is the concept of respect for others. Our dedicated and professional faculty members are a vital component in a student’s path to success. Our school is a place where individuals’ culture, language, heritage, and experiences are valued and considered.
