The National Honor Societ is indeed back this 2008/2009 school year and information about it can be found on page 9 of the 2008/2009 ARHS Program of Studies.

Following is from the ARHS Code of Conduct (see link below):

Unexcused absence from class
1st Offense: Teacher detention and parent/guardian notification
2nd Offense: Administrative detention, parent/guardian notification
Subsequent Offenses: One day internal suspension (up to seven offenses)
Unexcused absences count toward the absence limit total per trimester of 8. Three unexcused tardies to class count as one unexcused absence. Once students accumulate 8 absences, they are placed on non-credit status.

Tardy to school
1st and 2nd offenses: Warning
3rd offense: Administrative detention, warning of loss of parking privileges
Subsequent offenses: Administrative detention, loss of parking privileges on school grounds for 10 days

When a student is absent, parents and guardians are encouraged to call 362-1718 to report the absence. Leaving a message at this voice mail eliminates the need to write an excuse note for the absence. IMPORTANT: phone calls are not accepted after the day of the absence. Excuse notes are not accepted after 48 hours from the student’s return to school.

At the beginning of the year, all students receive a copy of the Student Handbook. This booklet includes the school's discipline code. The discipline code is also posted online at http://www.arps.org/hs/Policies/CodeOfConduct.pdf.

Dean of Students Mary Custard is in charge of discipline for 9th and 11th graders at ARHS. Dean of Students Nakaia Smith is in charge of discipline for 10th and 12th graders at ARHS.

This is an excerpt from Section 23a of the Student Handbook:

"Students are expected to dress in a manner consistent with the academic and social goals of our school. Articles of clothing which are distracting or disruptive to the educational process, which violate common standards of decency and modesty, or which contain obscenities, fighting words, or references to gangs, drugs or alcohol are not acceptable. Extremely brief garments or see-through garments are not appropriate for school. Under garments must not be exposed. Any staff member who feels that a student's attire does not meet these standards may send the student to the Dean for a conference."
