Shotenei Monroe is the Arapaho Charter High School Student of the Week!
Shotenei, the granddaughter of Angie Spoonhunter, is a 10th grader at ACHS and a welcome addition to the school this year. She is quick-witted, very polite, and always stands ready to help those around her. “Shotenei is always polite and kind and is a joy to have in class. She has a great sense of humor and enjoys teasing in a friendly way” writes a nominating teacher. “She loves to talk about her dogs and is really an animal lover. Her pure heart shines through every day.” Indeed, students and teachers alike appreciate her quiet presence and selfless approach to life! At ACHS she loves to help with anything and everything. From the Food Distribution program to helping with track meets and decorating for Prom, Shotenei is a willing giver of her time and energy and a true asset to all those around her. Outside of school Shotenei enjoys helping others, drawing, and spending time with her grandmother. She is a talented artist, and hopes to attend an art college after she graduates from high school. Way to go Shotenei – we appreciate you!
Angie Spoonhunter (grandmother) is the proud guardian of Shotenei.


🌟 ACHS Track & Field Update! 🌟
We haven’t done the best job giving shoutouts to our high school track team this season—but that changes today! This is only the second year of having a full track team at ACHS, and it’s such an exciting time as our athletes are setting the bar (and breaking it) with new school records! 🏅
📍 Meet Recap: Shoshoni
Our Warriors showed up and made history yesterday:
🥇 Girls Shot Put: Quiana Piper — 29’ 6” (NEW SCHOOL RECORD!)
🥇 Girls Discus: Kenya Rhodes — 79’ 7.25” (NEW SCHOOL RECORD!)
🥇 Girls Triple Jump: Shayda BigLeggins — 28’ 7.25” (NEW SCHOOL RECORD!)
🥇 Girls Long Jump: Shayda BigLeggins — 12’ 11” (NEW SCHOOL RECORD!)
Whether it’s the first or fiftieth time competing, our coaches are so proud of these kids for showing up, working hard, and representing ACHS with pride. 💪
🏃♀️ We’re hopeful to see at least four athletes qualify for State this year based on their current marks and regional cutoffs—fingers crossed as the season continues!
Good luck to our athletes competing at today’s track meet! Let’s keep the momentum going!







What a small world!
While visiting Sheridan College, we had the awesome surprise of running into a relative — Ryan Martel from Wyoming Indian — who is currently attending college and enrolled in the welding program! It was such a nice experience to reconnect and see a fellow tribal member succeeding and thriving in higher education. Keep up the great work, Ryan — your journey is inspiring!




Preschool Chick Update!
Exciting news from our preschool classroom—8 fluffy chicks have hatched, and we have 3 more on the way!
Our little learners are getting a front-row seat to the wonders of life as they watch the chicks break free from their shells. It’s been an egg-cellent hands-on science lesson filled with curiosity, joy, and lots of “peeping” excitement!
Stay tuned for more updates as we welcome the rest of our brood!



WY-TOPP Testing Tips for Success!
As WY-TOPP testing continues at Arapahoe School, here are some helpful tips to make sure students are set up for success:
1. Get Plenty of Sleep
A well-rested brain is a focused brain! Aim for 8–10 hours of sleep the night before testing.
2. Eat a Healthy Breakfast
Fuel up with something nutritious—think protein, fruit, or whole grains. A good breakfast helps boost concentration and energy!
3. Arrive On Time
Being on time reduces stress and helps students start the day with confidence.
4. Dress Comfortably
Students should wear layers so they can stay comfortable in the classroom during testing.
5. Stay Positive
Encourage your student to do their best—but remind them that this is just one way to show what they’ve learned. Their effort matters!
We’re so proud of how hard our students have worked all year. Let’s keep the momentum going!


Demo Day Recap at Sheridan College
Thank you to Sheridan College for giving our students a a look at life on campus—and their future careers! On April 24th, our group:
• Welding Technology
• Construction Technology
• Diesel Technology
• Machine Tool Technology
• Explored student life on a full campus tour
Your hospitality—from the Golden Dome check-in to the Tech Center hospitality room—made it all run smoothly. We’re so grateful for the hands-on opportunities and expert guidance. Can’t wait to do it again next year!











Spring has arrived, and so has our first chick in the preschool!
Our students have been busy learning about bar graphs in math. Ms. Leanne had them make predictions on how many eggs would hatch, how many would be roosters or hens, and then create bar graphs with their data.
Stay tuned as we watch more eggs hatch and compare predictions to the results!
