SPECIAL THANKS!

We would like to send a special "THANK YOU" to the 9 individuals who responded to our request to cover the cost of the 3 year update to our website subscription  Due to their generosity the entire amount has been covered and we will be able to continue providing news and notes about our class!  We will respond to each of them individually, but we wanted to recognize their generosity here as well.

BREAKING NEWS: FUND TOTAL EXCEEDED

The AAHS Class of 1970 Endowment has exceeded the goal of $50,000! This will allow continued distribution of funds to support the AAHS Biomedical Science Pathway program.  

It is important to note that the fund is an investment and is subject to the movement of the financial markets (both upward and downward). Due to potential market fluctuations, we encourage our class to continue to financially support the fund, especially as you consider your 2025 holiday charitable contributions.  After all, the more we raise, the greater our annual contributions can be to our alma mater and its current and future students.

For the 2025-2026 school year the committee authorized $750 for program expenses and a $750 Scholarship. We will provide the details on these donations at the end of the school year.

The fund management group will meet again in June to determine awards for the 2026-2027 school year. 

Remember, no gift is too small.  With the more than 400 members of our website, we can continue to grow the fund and support this important education initiative for years to come.
