Requesting Next Year's Courses
Students can request courses for the 2024-2025 school year by logging in to StudentVUE between January 20 and February 9.

Students will have presentations from counselors on January 18 and sophomores will also meet with counselors during their PE class on January 23. Students should reach out to counselors with any questions, but please be patient as we are supporting hundreds of students through this process. Thank you!

TEAM -
The Team Program is officially set to launch as a new Academy model program this fall at Archie Williams High School. Team is an experiential education program combining wilderness adventure, community service, internships, and cohort academic learning. The central mission of Team is to help students reconnect with a greater purpose in their lives. Through Team’s experiential education model, students can gain real world experiences in the outdoors, in their community services placements and internships, and with a close knit community of peers and teachers.
In Team, students are reminded of a greater sense of belonging and meaning in their everyday lives, along with a recognition of how much of an impact they can make on the world around them. Now more than ever, students are looking for ways to be present with their peers in person and gain life long skills to help them succeed. This pandemic has taught us all that connecting through a screen is incredibly difficult, and some time immersed in nature can serve us all. No prior wilderness experience is necessary and all gear is provided. This is a completely free program! We will start with a cohort of juniors during our launch year this Fall.
Team is truly a transformative 2 year model. It will help young people to find the HOPE and HEALING they are looking for. You can visit our website at www.team-program.org/ to learn more! Email Diana Goldberg dgoldberg@tamdistrict.org and Jasper Thelin jthelin@tamdistrict.org with any further questions.
