Four ACHS seniors and four Hume High School seniors traveled to Pittsburg, KS today to tour Pitt State University. The campus tour was organized by Mrs. Deel from ACHS and Mrs.Castillo from Hume High School. This collaboration was made possible by RootEd Missouri.



Tomorrow is Red Friday! Let's have a little fun and wear red or Chiefs colors tomorrow!


Due to road conditions, Appleton City Schools will not be in session today. I was hopeful we would be able to have school, but there are several slick spots on our routes, along with some icy bridges. With the temperature hovering around freezing, roads may get slick quickly.
We will use today as AMI Day #1. Please make sure students complete work sent home and turn in when they return to school. Teachers will be available to help today via their school email.
