Allendale - Fairfax High School

Congratulations to Diamond Kearse, of Allendale-Fairfax High School, for passing her LLR State Board exam today. She is now a licensed Cosmetologist! A special thanks to Ms. Danielle Williams for supporting Diamond during her journey.

During the latter part of the presentation, the middle school students got to see first hand what being a JROTC cadet is like. There were stations where they practiced drill routines, learned the creed, folded the flag, and completed physical training. At the end, there was a Q&A segment and exceptional students were recognized for their participation and performance.

Today the AFHS JROTC hosted middle school students for recruitment. The cadets shared their experience with the program and even performed a drill routine which intrigued the students.

Join us on April 30th at 9:30 AM in the AFHS Multipurpose Room for a JROTC ceremony. There will be awards, change of command, and promotion.

Tomorrow we will meet the new JROTC cadets at the Annual AFHS Recruitment Ceremony. The event will start at 10:00 AM and will be held in the AFHS gym.

The annual AFHS JROTC Recruitment Ceremony will be this Friday, April 26th at 10:00 AM in the AFHS gym. We can't wait to see all the new cadets!

The AFHS Bow Tie Club attended the Men of Color Summit in Greenville. This event is sponsored by Clemson University and promotes service, leadership, and academics. The highlight of the weekend was the keynote address given by the notable Kenny Smith, a former NBA player and current sports analyst.

Today the Ministers in Action came to Allendale-Fairfax High School to talk with students and Superintendent Dr. Cave. With each visit, they are building bonds and strengthening relationships with our scholars.

Our middle and high school students got to enjoy an E-sports gaming lab experience thanks to Blaze Fire Games. Our students were excited about the game truck, and we look forward to providing them with similar opportunities in the future!

Parents and Guardians, for clarification our students will be in school during the Solar Eclipse. Our teachers have coordinated learning activities in honor of this celestial event. If a teacher chooses to take their class outside for the eclipse, appropriate safety glasses will be distributed. We will continue to extend learning opportunities of the highest quality while ensuring our students are safe at all times.

We want to acknowledge our Assistant Principals Anderson, Brandyburg, and Rogers during National Assistant Principal Week! AFHS wouldn't be the same without you!

Today, our AFHS Cosmetology Students held a salon clinic.
