The yearbook staff and Adviser Michele Burris went to Walsworth Publishing, the Smoke Signals publishing company, in Overland Park. They met with the district's representative, Tracy, who showed them software tips and tricks, and offered constructive suggestions about their spreads for this year's yearbook. Tracy inspired the staff by allowing them to look through a large variety of yearbooks. It was a beneficial visit! Afterward, the yearbook staff went to Dave and Busters for some team bonding before returning to school!
Mark your calendars, AHS Class of 2026 and Adrian Alumni! The annual alumni meeting is May 9, 2026 at 7pm in the Commons!

Mr. Rylee Mabe, Weights Teacher, allowed 2nd graders to join his high school class today during their recess. High schoolers timed them when running the 40 yard dash. This is an exceptional example of older Blackhawks helping and encouraging younger Blackhawks!
