Dear Antelope Parents, Guardians, and Students,
Antelope Union High School needs your help, and we need EVERY senior and family to be part of this important effort!
Last year, Antelope achieved something extraordinary: nearly 96% of our graduating seniors completed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)! This accomplishment placed Antelope among the top-performing schools in Arizona and played an important role in helping our school achieve its first "B" letter grade in 10 years!
This year, we are raising the bar even higher.
OUR GOAL: 100% FAFSA COMPLETION FOR THE CLASS OF 2027!
Antelope is participating in the Arizona Board of Regents' 50 by Fall initiative, and we are determined to build on last year's success. Only two schools statewide achieved 100% FAFSA completion last year, and we believe Antelope can join that exceptional group!
However, we cannot accomplish this without the participation and support of our students AND their parents or guardians.
Why Is FAFSA So Important?
FAFSA is about much more than attending a traditional four-year university. It opens doors to educational opportunities and financial assistance for students pursuing many different pathways after graduation, including:
Universities and community colleges
Trade schools and technical education programs
Vocational training and qualifying certificate programs
Other eligible postsecondary education and career-training opportunities
Even if your student does not plan to attend a traditional college, we still expect every senior to complete the FAFSA. Students may qualify for assistance they did not realize was available, and their plans after graduation may change.
FAFSA completion also benefits our entire school community. Our completion rate contributes to Antelope's school accountability performance, supports our efforts to maintain and improve our state letter grade, and can help our district secure additional funding to support educational opportunities for students.
When our students complete the FAFSA, our students win, our school wins, and our entire community benefits!
IMPORTANT: FAFSA Is a Graded Assignment for ALL Seniors!
To emphasize the importance of preparing students for life after graduation, FAFSA completion is a required, graded assignment for every senior in their English class.
Students who are also enrolled in College Prep will have a FAFSA assignment in that course as well.
The deadline to complete this assignment for a grade is within the next two weeks!
We encourage all families to complete the application as soon as possible rather than waiting until the deadline approaches.
Parents and Guardians: We Need YOU!
On October 28, Antelope hosted our FAFSA Night to provide families with assistance completing the application. Unfortunately, attendance was much lower than we had hoped.
This is particularly concerning because students generally cannot complete the FAFSA process entirely on their own. Most dependent students need information and participation from a parent or other required contributor, including financial and tax information.
Parents and other required contributors must complete their own portions of the application using their own StudentAid.gov accounts.
Please do not assume your student can complete everything without your involvement. Your participation is essential!
We Are Here to Help!
We understand that FAFSA can seem complicated, especially for families completing it for the first time. That is why Mrs. Cruz is available at Antelope to help students and families navigate the application process.
If you have questions, are having trouble accessing the application, need assistance creating an account, or are unsure what information is required, please contact Mrs. Cruz.
Complete the FAFSA here:
https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa
Let's Make History Together, Antelope!
Antelope has accomplished incredible things over the past year. We have improved student achievement, expanded opportunities for our students, and earned our first "B" letter grade in a decade. These accomplishments are the result of our students, staff, families, and community working toward a common goal.
Now we have the opportunity to achieve something that only two schools in the entire state accomplished last year: 100% FAFSA completion!
But reaching that goal requires every senior and every family to do their part.
We are asking all senior parents and guardians to sit down with their student, complete the FAFSA, and ensure that the assignment is submitted before the grading deadline.
Let's demonstrate what a small, rural school can accomplish when everyone works together.
100% COMPLETION. 100% COMMITMENT. 100% RAM PRIDE!
Thank you for your continued partnership, your support of our students, and your commitment to Antelope Union High School's success.

Dear Antelope Families,
WE HAVE SOME INCREDIBLE NEWS TO SHARE!
It is with tremendous pride and excitement that I announce that Antelope Union High School has officially earned a โBโ rating from the Arizona Department of Education for the 2025โ2026 school year!
This is the first time in at least 10 years that Antelope has received a letter grade higher than a โCโ!
This is an extraordinary milestone for our school, our students, our families, and our entire community!
For years, we have worked toward a vision of making Antelope a place where every student receives an exceptional education, has access to meaningful opportunities, and can graduate prepared for a successful future.
Today, we are seeing that hard work pay off!
A Community Achievement Worth Celebrating
This accomplishment did not happen overnight.
Over the past several years, our district has made significant investments in improving curriculum, strengthening academic programs, expanding student opportunities, and creating an environment where students can thrive.
We have also faced considerable challenges, including declining enrollment and the unique obstacles that come with operating a small, rural school district.
But through it all, our commitment to our students has never wavered.
And now, Antelope has earned the same โBโ letter grade as all six high schools in Yuma Union High School District!
This is a powerful reminder that a school's size or location does not determine what its students and staff can accomplish.
Our students deserve an education that rivals the best schools in Yuma County, and we are making that vision a reality.
Thank You for Being Part of Our Success!
To our students: Your hard work, growth, and determination are at the heart of this achievement. We are incredibly proud of you!
To our teachers and staff: Your dedication, passion, and commitment to student success have made this accomplishment possible.
To our parents and families: Thank you for trusting us with your children's education, supporting our school, and partnering with us as we continue to grow and improve.
To our Governing Board and community: Thank you for believing in Antelope and supporting the changes necessary to build a stronger school for our students.
This โBโ belongs to all of us!
The Best Is Yet to Come!
While we are incredibly proud of this achievement, we are not finished!
Our goal has always been bigger than earning a โB.โ
We are working toward becoming an A-rated district with outstanding academic programs, exceptional opportunities, and an educational experience that prepares every student for success.
We know there is still work ahead, especially as Arizona prepares to implement changes to its school accountability system. But this milestone proves what we can accomplish when our students, staff, families, and community work together.
We are building something truly special at Antelope, and I believe our greatest accomplishments are still ahead of us.
For today, however, I hope everyone takes a moment to celebrate!
After more than a decade, Antelope has earned a โB,โ and we could not be prouder!
Thank you for being part of the Antelope family, for believing in our school, and for helping us build a brighter future for our students.
Congratulations, Antelope! We did this together!
Now, let's go get that โAโ!
With tremendous pride and appreciation,
Antelope Union High School

Dear Antelope Families and Students,
We are excited to share more great news about Antelope Union High Schoolโs continued partnership with Arizona Western College (AWC) and the growing opportunities available to our students through dual enrollment.
AWC has generously provided our dual-enrollment students with a scholarship that will cover full tuition for one AWC dual enrollment course each semester, for a maximum of two dual enrollment courses during the school year.
This is an especially meaningful benefit because AWC already makes dual enrollment extremely affordable at just $30 per credit hour. With this scholarship opportunity, eligible Antelope students can receive an even greater financial benefit while earning college credit before graduating from high school.
This opportunity comes at an exciting time for Antelope. Nearly 40% of our student body is currently enrolled in dual enrollment courses, our highest participation level in more than a decade. We are also excited to continue expanding access to these opportunities for sophomores, juniors, and seniors, allowing even more students to begin earning college credit while still attending Antelope.
We would also like to extend a special thank you to AWC President Dr. Reetika Dhawan for coordinating with Superintendent Michael Deiana to help make this opportunity possible. Dr. Dhawan and Superintendent Deiana were both members of the 2022 Flinn-Brown Fellowship cohort, and this collaboration is a wonderful example of the strength of the Flinn-Brown network and the opportunities that can be created when Arizona leaders work together on behalf of students.
We are incredibly grateful to Arizona Western College for its continued investment in Antelope students and in the future of rural Arizona. Partnerships like this help us remove financial barriers, expand access to higher education, and provide our students with more opportunities to graduate prepared for college, career, and life.
Thank you, AWC, for continuing to support our students!
