NEW!!! 2026/2027 ELP Opportunities at AHS
A note from Carissa Danielson, the AHS ELP ADVISOR:
There were many opportunities for ELP students in the past that we are working to get up and running again. These include Freshman Seminar (just approved by the board for 2026-2027), ELP Independent Study (available starting second semester this year), and internships & research opportunities at Iowa State as well as with community members.
I am also hosting several competitions this year ( AMC, F=MA, International Geography Bee, USA Biolympiad, & Battle of the Books) as well as Learning @ Lunch or LCT on a variety of topics. So far we have focused on careers students expressed interest in when they met with me this fall.
