ARH Updates- A Note from Mrs. Garcia
Good Morning, Patriot Families!
We hope everyone is enjoying the long Labor Day weekend and finding a little time to recharge before we jump into another busy week at Aubrey Rogers!
As we continue Charting the Course through the school year, our Patriots are settling into strong routines and doing some incredible work in the classroom. Our administrative team spent time this past week visiting classrooms, and we were excited to see students engaged, collaborating, thinking critically, and tackling challenging tasks. A special thank you to our teachers for the tremendous work they continue to do each day!
This week may only have four school days, but apparently no one told our calendar. We have plenty happening on campus, including our 9th Grade SGA Meeting, continued preparations for PM1 testing, and our ARTIS field trip for juniors.
As the school year gets underway, students are developing new friendships, joining new groups, and expanding their social circles. This is a great time for families to have conversations about appropriate and responsible social media use. A quick reminder that what is posted, shared, commented on, or sent electronically can have an impact well beyond the screen. Encouraging our students to pause before they post, treat others with respect, and make good choices online is an important part of helping them successfully navigate the school year.
There is a lot on the horizon over the next several weeks, including PM1 testing, Scholar Bowl, Homecoming, Junior/Senior Parent Night, and our next Resiliency Education module. Please take a moment to review the important dates below and mark your calendars. September and October appear to have decided they would like to keep us busy!

A Note from the Curriculum Office
Hello, Patriot Families! On Tuesday, September 15th, all 9th and 10th grade students will take their Progress Monitoring 1 (PM1) assessment. PM1 occurs at the beginning of the school year and serves as a diagnostic tool for teachers to provide targeted instruction and track student growth from PM1 to PM2. Prior to the assessment, please ensure your child gets a good night’s sleep, enjoys a healthy breakfast, and arrives before our 7:05 am bell.
We will be following a modified bell schedule for testing. Please see attached.
Stay tuned for more information about accessing PM1 results in a future newsletter.
Happy September, everyone!
A Note from Student Services
Attendance Matters!
Regular attendance is one of the strongest predictors of student success. If your student is absent, please notify the front office and submit any doctor's notes as soon as possible. Be sure to check FOCUS regularly to monitor attendance and grades. By staying connected and maintaining open communication between home and school, we can work together to help every student succeed. Thank you for partnering with us!
A Note from Mr. Entrekin- Activities Office
Patriot Nation,
What an extraordinary start to the fall season! The energy across our campus is absolutely electric, and our student-athletes are giving us so much to celebrate!
First, let's give a massive congratulations to Cam Cussick for being named the Naples Daily News Athlete of the Week! We are beyond proud of Cam's hard work and dedication.
The momentum doesn't stop there—for the first time in program history, our Varsity Football team is 3-0! Meanwhile, our Volleyball team is making huge strides, and both our Cross Country and Swim teams are flexin' their muscles on the competition stage. We couldn't be more excited about the incredible standard our Patriots are setting!
As we celebrate these victories, a quick reminder to all our families and students: success in athletics and activities starts in the classroom and around campus. Exceptional behavior, strong attendance, and daily effort are imperative for every student's growth and success, and these standards will continue to be monitored closely. Let’s make sure we are striving for excellence in every arena!
