- Students absent on Friday need to take their picture on 9/9.
- This is the final opportunity for yearbook pcitures and failure to take a picture will mean your student is not in the yearbook.

Grads Photography is our official Senior Photographer.

Proposition 438
Prop 438 is a continuation of Agua Fria High School District’s existing Maintenance & Operations Budget Override. It funds critical day-to-day essentials, like keeping high-quality teachers in classrooms, maintaining campus safety personnel, and expanding career programs like Nursing, IT, and Trades.
Best of all? It maintains our current voter-approved funding with no tax rate increase! Without it, our district faces over $12 million in annual budget reductions.
Senior Parking Space Painting
- Seniors, along with family and friends, can join us on Friday, August 21 from 6-11 pm pm to paint their spots!
- Important: Please bring all supplies. We suggest a broom or blower to clean the spot, asking your local paint store for the best type of paint (they will know!), and possibly lights to support the work as it gets dark, along with brushes, stencils, paint rollers.
- We will have trash cans, food trucks, and drinks available, but water is another great addition. It will be warm!
