We had a great time painting Wednesday night. Some even got wild and not only used their own color scheme but created their own image 😃
AFHS staff and students, join Mrs. Stilwell in painting this beautiful watercolor bear scene on Wednesday the 4th, in the art room from 3:30-6:30. You do not have to stay the whole time if you finish earlier or have another commitment. Please sign up in the office or email Mrs. Stilwell if you plan to attend.

🌟 Community Pride Day 2025🌟
AFHS students showed incredible school spirit and leadership at their annual Community Pride Day.
Each grade level participated in sessions focused on soft skills, college and scholarship prep, and personal branding — learning valuable tools to prepare for life beyond high school.
Then, they took that pride outside the classroom — all students spread out across the community to pick up trash and give back by beautifying our town!
We’re so proud of our students for showing that leadership starts with action. 💪🧤🌎

💛 American Falls High School is looking for event sponsors to help provide lunch while we host Breaking Down the Walls November 3–5! 💛
This powerful three-day program will involve all AFHS students, giving every student the chance to connect, share their stories, and realize that “it’s hard to hate someone whose story you know.”
We’re seeking sponsors to help provide lunch for about 200 students each day during the full-day workshops on Days 2 and 3. These workshops are most impactful when students stay together in their small groups all day, so we hope to bring lunch directly to them to maintain the connection and flow of the experience. 🍽️
Breaking Down the Walls focuses on:
• Meaningful connections and positive relationships: bringing students together to build authentic relationships and a sense of belonging.
• Empathy and understanding: creating space for students to share their stories, listen to others, and realize they are truly better together.
• A thriving campus culture: helping every student feel — I belong here, I am safe here, I can learn and grow here.
Your support will help make this meaningful event possible for every student — because we’re truly Better Together! 🦫💛 💛
Please contact Andrea Clinger if you are interested in being a sponsor
