Frequently Asked Questions

Who controls the money?

The Activities and Athletics Director along with the ASB Advisor provide AHS staff oversight and guidance to ASB officers (student leadership) in the management of all ASB funds.  All transactions and transfers of funds from the ASB account must be voted by ASB leadership (students) and approved by the AD.  The money will be allocated to individual ASB sub-clubs on an as needed basis with the primary purpose of helping to alleviate the burden and impact of recent budget cuts on AHS students.

What if I want my money to go directly to a specific club or sport?

Private donations can be made to a specific activity or club through their Head Advisor.  Private donations can be made to a specific sport through their SABA (Booster's) Representative and Head Coach.  These private donations are welcome and appreciated but are not part of this ASB Sponsorship Program.
