AHHS REMINDER: Final exams will begin next week on Tuesday, December 20th and will go through Thursday, December 22. 📝 Students will follow their personal final exam schedule for each of the three days. Good luck to all of our students taking their final exams! 👍
ALL Online Courses (Earth/Space, Mythology, English 3, Biology, Chemistry, and Physical Science), PE, Art, Band, and Choir finals will be given early for scheduling purposes.
Final exam days are open-campus for all high school students. This includes students who have lost or never had open lunch privileges. Students only need to be present for periods in which they have a scheduled exam.
Students who would like to be in the building, but do not have a scheduled exam, must report to a study hall to study quietly until their next exam begins or at the end of the day.
Students must arrive on time for all final exams. Any student(s) who arrive late for an exam will be denied entrance to the exam and must make up the exam during a make-up session or earn a grade of zero (0%) for the final exam.
Students must remain in class for the entire assigned exam testing times. However, students who complete an exam during the makeup session may leave upon completion of the exam.
Tonight is the last game of the season for the Middle School boys.
Come out and watch as the 5th & 6th Graders take on OLSHA starting at 5:30 with the 5th & 6th Cheerleaders performing at halftime!
Stay for the 7th & 8th graders play at 6:30 and the 7th & 8th grade Cheerleaders performing a routine at halftime!
Due to a scheduling conflict the girls were unable to perform at the exhibition this year but it worked out, they were asked by the high schoolers to cheer at their games last Wednesday and did a awesome job!
If you were there you got to see a portion of what these girls can do, you don’t want to miss tonight! The girls have been working hard all week to perform the routines and so excited to show everyone! I hope to see you there!!

Hello Friends of Hackmatack Volunteers,
Our next ecological stewardship day will be Sunday, December 4th from 1 to 4 p.m.
We are going to continue our work at Tamarack West, located on the south side of Tryon Grove Road 1.2 miles west of the intersection of Routes 12 and 31. We are already opening up a beautiful view of Glacial Park to the south, and though our volunteer groups have been small, we are making good progress. We are hopeful that we will have a number of students from the Alden-Hebron High School.
We invite everyone to come help build the refuge by cutting some brush or hauling a few branches to the pile. We need your help!
A map to the Tamarack West site from the intersection of Routes 12 and 31 is shown here:

Community News...Please help spread the word that we are seeking donations for wreaths for the over 125,000 Veterans of Foreign Wars who are buried overseas.
What does it mean to sponsor a Veteran’s wreath? Sponsoring a wreath means you’ll honor an American hero at one of more than 25 special cemeteries around the world this year.
Your generous donations will help place a wreath on the marker of a fallen hero to ensure that the legacy of duty, service, and sacrifice of that veteran is never forgotten. Overall, it means you have an opportunity to join a grateful nation in saying “thank you” to our Veterans this holiday season.
Checks can be mailed to: AMERICAN LEGION POST 606, P. O. BOX #36, HEBRON, IL 60034
