Activities are beginning to pick up at Ardmore High School. Teachers
are busy making a difference in the lives of our students and making sure our
students have outstanding educational opportunities.
One of our new teachers is Mrs. Lacy Williams who teaches
Family and Consumer Sciences. We are very fortunate to have Mrs. Williams here
to help our students and are extremely excited about the direction our FACS
program is heading. Working with Mrs. Graham, our Agriculture teacher, we know
our vocational department will soar to new heights.
Our Yearbook Staff is encouraging our students and faculty
to “Dress for Success” this year in our school pictures. They have begun a
clever marketing plan and have posters all over campus. They thought it would
be good for students to dress up and make Picture Day a special occasion. We
are excited to see how great our students look when they dress for success on September
4.
Our new gym is coming along very nicely and we will be
announcing the grand opening in a matter of days. We are currently thinking
that it will be toward the end of September, but we anticipate a specific date
to be announced very soon. I believe the gym will be something the community of
Ardmore will be proud to call their own.
Our fall sports teams are in full swing. We have teams
playing multiple times during the week and we invite you to come out and
support our band and athletes as they compete this fall. We are very proud of
our students and the things they are able to accomplish. Students who
participate in extracurricular activities typically perform better in school
and have a more positive school experience. They need our help and support in
order to achieve their goals.
