The AFC Jr/Sr High School will be traveling to the Mills and Petrie building in Ashton on Friday, November 11 from 10:00 to 11:15. The local American Legion is hosting the school for a Veteran’s day ceremony where students will have the opportunity to learn from local veterans about the sacrifices made by individuals to ensure safety, security, and freedom for all Americans. We are thankful for the VFW as they help create valuable learning opportunities for our students.
The 7th and 8th grade basketball game will be played in Oregon at the high school. It will be played in the OHS gym and not the Blackhawk Center.

Mr. Cissna's 7th and 8th grade Social Studies classes conducted a mock election in class today. From voter registration cards, to election judge procedures, to the voting steps they learned about their civic duty at election time. A big thank you to Ogle County Clerk Laura Cook for the donation of "I voted" pens and stickers. As well, a shout-out to Mr. Cissna for brining real world experiences to the classroom to better prepare our students to be contributing members of our community.

The art students decorated staff parking spaces. They really do bring that extra color to our day when we arrive!
Mr Martin wanted the Art students to know how much he appreciates it. "Loving my new parking spot! Many thanks to Rhylee, Ethan, and Kaylee from Art Class."
AFC is in search of someone or someones to run the game clock at high school girls and boys basketball games. Mrs. Gittleson is willing to train. It does require concentration on the game(s) the entire time. Girls play varsity only with games starting at 7:00. Boys play a JV game followed by a varsity game. JV game starts at 6:00. This is a paid position. If interested in one or the other or both, please email Mrs. Gittleson at tgittleson@afcschools.net.
