Game Photographers Needed

We’d like one or more photographers to take photos at Varsity, JV and Frosh games.  Our regular photographer for the past few years will be unavailable for most of the season, so we’re in need of some volunteers.  (My camera takes horrible night pictures.)

If you’d like to volunteer your photography skills, here are a few prerequisites:

1. You’ll need to attend most Var and/or JV and/or Frosh games – both Home and Away. If you can only do Var or only Frosh or JV, that’s fine.
2. You need to have a digital camera
   It certainly doesn’t need to be professional quality, but it should have decent zoom and flash capabilities.
3. You need to sign up (simple) and be able to upload and transmit the images via email to VarsityPix.

If you’re interested, find out more by e-mailing Jim at: webmaster@hornetboosters.org

Snack Bar Volunteers Needed
Looking for Parent Volunteers to Have a Little Fun on Game Nights !!!

If you can spare an hour or two, please call or click on the link below which will send an email directly to Jenna (our Snack Bar Coordinator). Jenna will coordinate this Fall's snack bar schedule.  Please let her know the following information:

• Your name & home phone number.
• Date of the game(s) you'd like to work.
• Frosh, JV or Varsity game: (Typically varsity parents work the JV game; and JV parents work the varsity game).  JV games start at 4:30 and Varsity games begin at 7:00.
• Frosh parents can volunteer for whatever games they wish.  (We hope to open the snack bar for Frosh games as well.)

Once you've signed up, we'll call you back prior to the game to remind & confirm.

Thanks for your support!

Player Eligibility for 2011 Season

All the physical preparation and hard work in the world won't mean squat if you're not academically eligible to play.

Here are the credit requirements you will need in order to be eligible to play football in our Fall 2010 season:

If you are unsure of your current academic credit situation and/or need help projecting or planning your eligibility for next year, stop by the AHS Counseling Office and speak to an advisor.

Options such as tutoring, Night School and Summer School (see below) are available.

Academic Assistance

If your academic situation is in need of some help, you have a number of resources available to you to help get you back on track.  Many teachers offer after-school study programs or will meet with you individually.  Tutoring, Summer School and Night School options are also available to help you through difficult courses or to help you make up needed credits. 

But remember, YOU need to take the initiative to get your grades and academic credits in shape.  If you're in trouble, work to fix the problem NOW, because by the time the start of football season rolls around, it will be too late. 

When the team's out there playing next season, 
make sure you're not watching all the action from the stands.

Important Note:  If you're thinking about using the school's one-time "waiver" (probation) policy as your ace in the hole, be aware of the facts:

Probation Policy:  If a student is ineligible academically to participate, he/she may use summer school grades in the fall semester and/or request to be on probation.  

• Probation is granted for one quarter. 
• A student can only be on probation once in four years.
