Arundel's A-Team |
The A-Team is a team of specially trained school employees who receive referrals from faculty, students and parents. The goals of the team are to identify students who may be having difficulty at school, gather information about the students overall academic functioning (including grades, attendance and behavior) and to assist parents to rule out the possibility of substance abuse. This is a confidential process and no information gathered by the team will be entered into the students school file. If a parent agrees with the team’s assessment, a referral can be made to an addictions counselor. This information is also confidential and is only shared with the parent and student. The addictions counselor can help parents with information on treatment options and planning services.

Moving?
If you have a change of address during the summer or school year, you must complete a Demographic Change Form available here or in the Guidance Office. You will need to bring in proof of residency such as a utility bill. Please bring the form and utility bill to the Guidance Office.
Please update your Emergency Card in the Main Office if your work or home phone number or your address changes. If the school needs to contact a parent, it is critical we have current information. |
| Collect Your Printer Cartridges & Old Cell Phones
We have a bin in the Computer Lab across from the main office to collect empty printer ink and toner cartridges. For every cartridge we collect, the school receives up to $14.00. Collect them from work and home and send them into school. It's good for the school and good for the environment. (Please put them in a small bag or box before sending them to school.)
We also recycle used cell phones. Thanks! |
