December Brings Many Activities . . . AHS students took an active part in the many activities planned for the month of December. As Christmas drew near, students became aware of other's needs by participating in the annual Adopt One program. The Future Nurses club, sponsoring this program, sorted many gifts which had been donated by each homeroom. Many homerooms held projects in conjunction with this program. A shoe shine was one of those original money making projects held by one homeroom. Maxi Day was an added attraction this year. Many girls came to school outfitted in their floor-length skirts and coats. On December lo, the choir presented its an- nual Christmas concert. The choir sang carols such as The Birthday of a,King and i'Do You l-lear What I Hear. Christmas decorations were placed in the stu- dent lounge by the freshman, sophomore, jun- ior, and senior classes. Two old-fashioned Christmas trees were placed in the student lounge and the cafeteria as added decorations. To highlight the Christmas season, the annual Christmas Social was sponsored by the Student Congress. Away from the usual tradition, the dress was changed to formal and semi-formal. Music was provided by The Michael. Top left: A Capella ff-17 f' qu , im Choir sings at annual Christmas choir con- cert.
