Halloween Dress-Up Message

In preparation for celebrating Halloween please adhere to the following guidelines:

Please do not wear anything that completely covers your face, do not bring in simulated weapons of any kind, the weather is cooling down, dress warmly, and no gory costumes. 

Thanks and have a safe and Happy Halloween!

Students 9th to 12th:

We encourage every student that if you get to school after 9:00 am and you have a note with you please stop by the main office to drop it off and you can go straight to your class without a pink pass. If you arrive later than 9:25 a.m. and have a note or not you MUST stop at the main office to sign in the tardy sheet and get a pink pass to go to your class. Having a pink pass doesn't mean that you are excused for being tardy to school. Any time you are leaving school you MUST stop by the main office to sign in the dismissal sheet, if you are leaving the school without a note from your parents your dismissal is not going to be excused.

Seniors:

If you haven't ordered your cap and gown. Please bring payment ($21) with your height and weight to Ms. Rodriguez at the main office as soon as possible. Please be aware that after October cap and gown costs will go up $5 and the new payment will be $26 in November.

ARPS will be offering the official State Seal of Biliteracy to graduating seniors in the spring of 2024, as well as Biliteracy Pathway Awards to students in grades 6 and 8. The Massachusetts Seal of Biliteracy is awarded by the state Department of Education and local school districts to recognize students who attain proficiency in English (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), as well as one or more additional languages learned in school or another setting, as measured by standardized language assessments. This recognition will be included with the student’s high school transcripts and diplomas and serves to certify the attainment of a student’s biliteracy for employers and universities.

Please use the link attached to register. Registration deadline is November 17. Seniors: this year's STAMP/ALTA test will take place on December 4th, 2023. Contact cisseo@arps.org for questions.
