ARRIVAL INFORMATION for Tuesday, June 11. PLEASE READ.

ARHS is a Dorchester County polling location on June 11. Community members voting will enter GATE 2 and proceed to the Small Cafeteria Entrance for the polling place.

Ashley Ridge Athletics campers and athletes will need to be dropped off in the car rider loop or park in B-Lot and enter through the Car Rider Doors. No students/campers will be allowed to enter the building through the polling location at the small cafeteria.

Today, we celebrated our end-of-year lunch with our amazing staffulty! We congratulated our three retirees and bid farewell to those embarking on new adventures.

We also introduced our inaugural Spirit Point Heroes! Throughout the year, our dedicated staffulty earned Spirit Points for things such as attending school events, making positive phone calls home, participating in spirit days, and even babysitting a goat! Those who accumulated 100+ points achieved “VIP Status,” enjoying the privilege of eating first and dining with real plates and cutlery!

A huge congratulations to our first ever TOP FOX, Mrs. Carter
