As a tribute to Dolly Parton’s legacy, giving back, particularly to children, has been honored on September 25th as “Give Like Dolly Day.” 9/25

In support of Shortgrass Arts and Humanities Council, we are delighted to have the opportunity to allow a donations collection in between the first and second quarters of this Friday night’s 9/25 homecoming football game at THE ROCK!

Every donation will be dedicated to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library of Jackson County. Currently, they serve 811 children, which represents 36% of the eligible children in Jackson County. This program aims to provide free, age-appropriate books to children from birth to five years old, with the goal of increasing the number of books available to them.

We encourage everyone to take a moment to give like Dolly.

Senior Checklist!

Altus High School is hosting an event to partner with parents and offer an awesome opportunity for freshmen.

The event will be held on Thursday, September 17th, at 6 PM in the AHS cafeteria.

We will give parents and students an overview of the ACT, the importance of the ACT, and an introduction of the ACT Online Mastery Prep tools. We will also discuss personalized steps the students and parents can take to help them meet and exceed their ACT goals.

If the parent and student decide to seize the opportunity, the student will be able to take the ACT 9 in the spring at AHS.

We look forward to seeing you there!
