AEHS Community Member,
After the last bell rings today we will already be down to only nine instructional days left in the 3rd quarter. While each week is important as education is a cumulative building process, we are not too far away from our annual spring "testing season" which is why every one of these days leading up to spring break are so valuable. As you can see from the images below, February continues to be a very busy month at AEHS and will be right up to the spring break.
Thank you very much for taking a few moments from your week to look over our recent progress and please have a relaxing and safe weekend!
Douglas K. Loftus, M.S. Ed.
Principal

Overview:
The Banner Project is a collaboration between the City of Orlando and Orange County Public Schools. School art programs were provided one recycled, vinyl banner left over from previous downtown events and asked to create a work of art inspired by a master artist. Each banner was hand-painted by art students and then sealed with a protectant to help preserve the work while exposed to the elements.
Below are the front and back sides of the banner design created by our talented students for this year's City of Orlando Banner Project:
