The countdown is over, and the 2013-2014 academic year at the Academic of the Holy Family has officially begun!
PowerWeek 2013 was a terrific experience for everyone involved. It has been especially grace-filled to greet the students as they arrived. Of course, the young women who were new to AHF showed a bit of nerves, but it didn't take long for the veteran students to swoop them up and carry them along into life at the Academy.
New students participated in placement exams for Math and English. Our international students also had the chance to have their abilities in reading, writing and speaking the English language assessed. Returning students prepared display boards that were to be used to spread the word about our co-curricular activities.
Returning students through the Student-Family Handbook, including the opportunity to ask questions about policies and "what if's." The Class of 2014 did a great job of designing and leading "ice breaker" activities. Hanlon Hall was alive with laughter!
Our students met their Homeroom Teachers and had the chance to begin building or continue strengthening the bonds that make each Class so unique. Our Activities Fair served a number of purposes. Besides giving all of the students the opportunity to learn about the activities that have been part of life at AHF, they all had the chance to learn about new activities that are debuting this year. Finally, the Activities Fair really gave our returning students the opportunity to shine as leaders. They stepped up and represented well. It is true: The leaders of tomorrow walk our halls today!
