Click on the picture to see the video and slide show. Thank you to the Atascadero City Manager, Rachelle Rickard, and our city staff for taking the time to meet with all three of Irene McDaniel's AHS Honors Geometry classes during the month of May. Ms. Rickard took the students on a tour of the building to meet with each department. Students learned about careers that use math including finance, engineering, city planning, building inspection, and public works. Ms. Rickard also spoke about the 2003 earthquake and what engineers did to ensure the structure was safe. Our AHS Greyhounds were exposed to several potential career paths helping to make them college and career ready!

Each Mind Matters - Atascadero High School's Wellness CenterA Wellness Center is not common place in most high schools, but Atascadero High School is committed to offering this service to all it's students. “This is a place where there’s no judgment,” said Kamela Proulx, the center’s coordinator and a licensed marriage and family therapist. “Kids can walk in the door and just want to share something wonderful that happened to them that day. Sometimes they come in over something devastating that happened in their family. Here they can get help immediately or almost immediately, and they feel that relief, they feel heard, they feel supported and it’s just right here,” The Wellness Center will also be providing summer programs.
