Donation of Tree Brings Christmas Spirit to AHS

Attached is a photo of the AHS Broadcast class which help decorate the new Christmas tree located in the main lobby at Aynor High.  The 12 ft. pre-lit tree was recently donated to AHS by Karl and Louise Caldwell of Hoschton, GA.  The Caldwell’s donated the tree in memory of Freitus and Ruth Dawsey.  Mr. Dawsey was a 1940 graduate of Aynor High.  Ruth McCain Dawsey was a beloved math teacher at AHS from 1947 until 1957.   Ornaments for the tree were donated by faculty members here at AHS.

Upload Pictures For School Yearbook

The AHS Yearbook Staff will be using a new feature this year where students and parents can upload pictures for possible use in the 2011-2012 yearbook. The process is very similar to Facebook. You can upload, tag and add captions to pictures. Visit  www.replayit.com, create an account and then upload pictures. Students and parents are able to upload. Please be aware that every picture uploaded will not be used. The pictures used will depend on the discretion of the yearbook staff, available space and relevance. We are asking that Seniors upload baby pictures and tag themselves. Its free! (and a good way for kids who couldn’t afford a senior page to have something special in the yearbook.) For more information, contact Ms. Megan Luksa, yearbook adviser, via e-mail at mluksa@horrycountyschools.net
