Hunter's Highlights
This has been an extremely busy week at Ardmore High School. This week was supposed to have been the only week the AHSGE was to be given. However, the winter weather continued and a snow day extended the AHSGE into the week of March 8, 2010 when the Reading Portion of the AHSGE will be given. Nine Weeks Exams are given Thursday and Friday March 11th, and 12th. Spring Break will be the Week of March 15, 2010 and everyone will be ready for a little time to rest.
Spring sports are well underway. We have 3 softball teams, 3 baseball teams, 2 golf teams, and 2 soccer teams playing this spring so a person can watch a game every day of the week except Sunday and Wednesday. All of our teams are doing wonderfully and this season looks to be another great year at Ardmore. We encourage you to support our athletes and coaches this spring.
Several of our high school students have helped Cedar Hill students celebrate Read Across America week. Our students traveled to Cedar Hill to read and act out stories for the Cedar Hill students. Special thanks go out to Mr. Brad Lewis for coordinating this event and making sure our students knew where to go and what to do.
Congratulations to Seth Harris! He is our 6th grade art student who will be representing Ardmore at the Alabama State Superintendents' Art Show in Montgomery. Each year, the Limestone Co. art teachers take the chosen students from each school to see their artwork displayed in the capital.
Kevin Shelton recently decided to play baseball for Birmingham Southern University. This is a tremendous honor for Kevin and we know he will do wonderfully. Birmingham Southern is a great school and we are honored to have several of our students currently attending this fine institution of higher education.
Our wonderful assistant principal and athletic director, Mr. Rusty Bates and his wife Kristin are the proud parents of Lauren Elizabeth Bates who was born at Huntsville Hospital this week and a weight of 2 lbs and 12 oz. Mom and baby are doing great and the Ardmore family wishes the best for the Bates family.

Hunter's Highlights
This has been another busy week here at Ardmore High School. This week has been National FFA Week and our students have had several opportunities to celebrate. Friday students were allowed to drive their tractors to school and a FFA officer has said the Pledge of Allegiance each morning. Students have participated in several “dress up” days including camo day, hat day and others. Mr. McKay does an excellent job with the FFA and we are fortunate to have such a strong FFA club on our campus.
Ms. DeGraffenreid will be taking a group of students to Birmingham next week to watch the Alabama Theater Flamingo Ballet. This is a Spanish cultural experience complete with Spanish music and dance. This is an excellent experience for our Spanish students to learn more about the Spanish culture.
The annual Ardmore High School Talent Show was held Friday, February 26, 2010 in the new gym. Several of our students displayed their talent this year with a group consisting of Jacob Black, Kendall Bailey, Colin Barts and Ben Rhinehart taking the top spot. A duet of Shelby Goldsmith, and Ben Rhinehart took second place and Jacob Petritsch placed 3rd. Our students behaved wonderfully at the Talent Show and the proceeds went to the soccer program. Ms. Wiley does a wonderful job with the show and we appreciate her efforts.
Spring sports are in full swing and we are very excited about our teams. This season looks very promising with all of our teams doing wonderfully in this very young spring season. In spite of the frigid weather Ardmore continues to have good support for all of its sports programs. The Winter Sports Banquet will be March 2 at 6:00 pm in the cafeteria.
The Alabama High School Graduation Exam will be given the week of March 1st and we know the hard work of our teachers and students will pay off when they take the test. We want to encourage all students taking the exams to have a restful week so they can give their best effort. This is a very big exam for our students and we want everything to go smoothly for them so they can finish their high school career successfully.
