Go Cubs! Pride! Pride! Pride!
LCAP Goal #1. Anderson Union High School District students will be college or career ready upon graduation.
Attendance
Attendance is important! AUHS cares about our students consistently coming to school and showing up on-time everyday. We know how important attendance is for students to have the academic foundation they need to be successful. AUHS has developed and implemented a school-wide system of incentives and reward for good attendance. We choose to celebrate our students on a basis for perfect attendance and no tardies. Our TOSA (Teacher on Special Assignment), Mr. Dell, holds meetings with chronically absent students, their parents, and a support team to learn root causes of attendance and offer solutions and connect them with resources when appropriate to help improve their attendance.
Career Fair
The 2nd Annual AUHS Career Fair will take place on our campus on Wednesday April 9th. The Career Fair was a huge success last year with a gym full of professionals. The event coincides with a Collaboration Day so professionals can present to all students during their Social Studies classes while the day still concludes for them around 1:00pm. ROP Career Specialist, Jamie Vanpool, has been working hard to organize this year's event.
Trap Shooting Team
The AUHS Trap Shooting Team dusted off their shotguns and held their first practice last week at the Redding Gun Club. The team is being coached by Mr. Wold, who is exicted to bring back trap shooting to Anderson and provide our students with a lifetime sport.

There will be a photo booth, a surprise dessert truck, and a couple other fun things to make the night extra special and memorable. The theme is "A Sparkling Soiree" (Gatsby/the Roaring 20s).
-Leadership is also prepping for Buff Puff on March 26th (boys of each grade play against each other in Volleyball).

Counseling
Counseling
Counselors met with Pacheco and Tree of Life (feeder schools) counselors on Thursday 3/13 at the RHS Secondary Counselor Meeting at the SCOE PDC. Counselors are approving academic plans so they are ready to roll over into course requests.
FFA / Agriculture
FFA / Agriculture
Students in the Ag Science courses this week had a hands-on learning experience as they participated in a necropsy on a hog lead by Mr. Whitmore. This unique opportunity allowed them to observe firsthand the effects of pneumonia in livestock, gaining valuable insight into animal health and disease identification. Through this real-world application, students deepened their understanding of agricultural science and veterinary practices.

Principal Safford and AUHS Counselors will meet again next week for a longer session to prioritize student needs and preferrence, ensuring a more personalized, relevant, and effective learning experience.
