My time at AHS has been meaningful, with great staff and community, but communication could improve. AHS gave me good memories and growth, though better support and clearer communication are needed. I valued the community at AHS, but stronger support and more consistent communication would help.

I would like to see the bathrooms better taken care of and better organized school events. I would also appreciate less vaping and drugs soon campus.
