Animas High School juniors in Ashley Carruth’s Humanities class will present “The Morality and Politics of Justice Coffee House Community Dialogues” from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Durango Joe’s, 732 East College Drive. How should the government balance security, liberty and equality in creating a just society? Come discuss students’ proposals for how the government should resolve various political issues, not based on what Democrats or Republicans espouse, but based on what is morally and politically just. The AHS School Excellence Committee will meet from 5 to 6 p.m. Monday at AHS. The AHS Board of Directors meets that same evening from 6 to 8 p.m. Both meetings are open to the public.

All are welcome to this free event, which will include multiple opportunities to support the school throughout the evening. Dress for the event in “game-show fancy” attire.
