The AHHS Alumni Association website, www.ahhsalumni.org, has been in existence for many years at this address. Want information on classmates? Looking for information on reunions? Want to know the latest happenings at AHHS? Want to look back on some AHHS history or memories? This is the place!

The Alumni Association website is and will be a work in progress and has undergone a complete renovation in recent months, making it more user friendly for you and giving it a new look and more functionality. There are things that are not completely polished and links have not all been thoroughly tested, but for a volunteer effort, we're pretty proud of it! It is accessed by all, free of charge, and supported by the dues of alumni who become members of the Association. We encourage you to join our Association ($10/year or $25/3 years), but you won't be shut out of our website if you choose not to join the Association.

Confusions have come about because, coincidentally, two new websites were set up and two e-mails from two different entities were sent within the same period of time – each about the AHHS Alumni Association. Basically, The AHHS Alumni Association has a new look for this website and sent a letter from our President to introduce it. The other website was developed by Harris Connect, the folks who helped us publish our directory and now, therefore, maintain our database. They also sent out an e-mail to let you know about their website. You must register for their website which allows you to change and update your own address and other information for free. They also offer an option to subscribe to their website. If you choose, you may subscribe (pay for - $9.95/year) and have access to the rest of their website – information about other classmates and so on.

Your Alumni Association encourages you to go to the AHHS Harris Connect site to change or correct information in your own records there at no charge. This enables us to stay in touch with you and help your reunion committee contact you about upcoming plans.
 

You can go into your own records at Harris Connect and change your information for yourself at no cost. You just need to register with them. You don’t need to subscribe (there is a charge of $9.95/year) if you don’t choose to. If you do choose to subscribe with Harris, you will be able to access the other resources they have to offer, beyond your own records.

We'd like to be able to stay in touch with you! The records we're keeping are available to your reunion committee, so we all need to be current and up-to-date with our on line information to help each other. If we all work together, we'll all benefit!
 

We’re delighted to keep you on the list! Just let us know! We'll be in contact with those whose e-mails we know (snail mail has become prohibitively expensive), so this is the key for now.

We hope you’ll be enjoying our new website with its information and new ways to connect with friends and former classmates. Feel free to let us know what you like, what you don't like, or what corrections or additions you'd like to see on the new website. We want this site to be for you!
 

Feel free to let us know what you like about our website, what you don't like, or what corrections or additions you'd like to see. We want this site to be for you! And, as we said earlier, you won't be shut out of our website if you choose not to join the Association. But if you change your mind and you feel like supporting our efforts and projects, we would love for you to Join Us, of course!
 

When you notify us, we will honor your choice to unsubscribe to the Arlington Heights High School Alumni Association e-mail. Unless we hear otherwise, we will respect your request to unsubscribe and not receive further e-mails from us.
 

After you contact us, we'll take make a note on your file that you're not interested in further news or e-mails from us and you will be sent no more.
 

We’re trying to meet the needs of so many different alumni and so many different age groups. Our first alumni graduated in 1925 and are now gone, of course, but many who graduated in the ‘40’s and ‘50’s are still interested in news from AHHS. We are trying to ease them into electronic news rather than the printed newsletters they have been accustomed to receiving. But we also need to keep in mind the newest graduates as well and want, of course, to appeal to them – if only as a resource.

If you prefer not to use the form or have trouble downloading it, please include the following information with your check: Name (first, middle, maiden if applicable, last), Year Graduated from AHHS, Address, Phone Number(s), and, most importantly for communication purposes, your E-mail Address.

We will be happy to post the information about your reunion on our website for you. Just let us know the dates, times, locations, and any other pertinent information you might want to include (dress, cost, cash bar, band/DJ, deadlines, etc.).  We also will need to give information on the Contact Person(s) - how to get in touch with those in the know. We can provide a link to your website if you have one for your class, or e-mail address...just contact us.

The Association will share its database of names and addresses, including e-mail addresses, for your reunion class. We'll e-mail you an Excel file. Just contact us. If you provide us with a final list of addresses after your reunion, and we certainly hope you will, we will update our database with the new information and keep it current for you for your next reunion.

Committees can also use the Association's tax exempt certificate number for purchased items (decorations, catering, room rental, etc.) for the reunion activities, thus saving your budget for more interesting things. Just contact us.

Also available for you is the Association's Bulk Mail Permit Number to receive a reduced postage rate for your reunion mailings. The special price applies only if mailing 200 items or more and the return address used must be that of our Association. Check with the post office for current regulations to decide if it's worth it for you (it can be a bit complicated). Then contact us if you want to use this service.  

The Scholarship Endowment Fund was started with the money raised at the first All-Class Party and your donations since have allowed us to grow the Fund so that the interest earned each year can be given to worthy AHHS Seniors as scholarships for their continued education.

Many wonderful projects benefiting the school have been done over the years. Improvements to the building, athletic fields and grounds continue because of alumni support. Our latest efforts have been to publish an Alumni Directory and to refurbish and improve our website.

We welcome you to read more about your Alumni Association on the website and to contact us with any suggestions or questions you might have.

It's that simple...and we all benefit!

We have been working hard to update our website to allow you to use your credit cards and debit cards on-line for paying your dues or making donations.  A click on the link, fill in a form and you're done. 

Thank you for your generous support of the Alumni Association and its projects.
