9th Graders to Participate in Respect Retreat

Apollo and Holdingford 9th graders will take part in a Respect Retreat on Tuesday, December 8. For students to succeed academically and socially, a respectful and caring school community is essential. During the Youth Frontiers Respect Retreat, students from different backgrounds and social cliques work together to learn how to embrace respect as a core value in their lives and school community. At a critical time in these young peoples' development, the Respect Retreat helps build a positive school community by compelling students to respect themselves, respect others, and stand up for the value of respect. Further information can be found at Youth Frontiers or view the program overview.

Be the First to Order a Yearbook Online

Deadline for ordering the 2009-2010 yearbooks are fast approaching – December 18. For the first time, you are able to order on-line. Go to Walsworth Yearbooks, select “Buy a Yearbook” on the bottom of the page to place an order. Most major credit cards are accepted. You’ll be able to order some other “extras” that aren’t available in school. A yearbook would make a great Holiday gift. Remember, the deadline to order is December 18. Last year we ran out. Don’t miss out this year.

Parents Are Important at Apollo High School

Transitioning to High School can be a stressor for some ninth grade students. Many experience a drop in grades and attendance. The transition can be difficult due to the physical space of a new school, new people, new rules and routines. There may be a feeling of disconnectedness. At Apollo, we are committed to helping your son/daughter transition in the best way possible. Click here to view parent involvement belief statements. We want to partner with you, freshman parents. Please attend the three Freshman Parent Meetings. Click here to see dates. Working together for success! That is what Apollo High School is all about! Welcome to a great school year.
