Crayola Crayon Day was a hit! Many crayons were seen here at the ELC today. Hearing what the favorite colors were it seems that the majority of our students love blue, red, green, and pink!

Here is this week's ELC Panda Press with lots of outside pictures this week! https://www.smore.com/av0bw

In an effort to return our elementary students home before conditions become unsafe, APS will dismiss early today, Tuesday, March 14, 2023. The early dismissal times are as follows: High School: 10:50 AM Middle School: 11:30 AM Elementary School: 12:25 PM The Early Learning Center will be closed - no AM or PM preschool. The ABACUS program will close two hours after dismissal.

We are closely monitoring the weather for tomorrow, March 14, 2023 and remain committed to delivering a full day of school as scheduled. However, the forecasted switch from rain to snow at midday presents a notable concern. Please be ready in case the timeline accelerates or conditions worsen and we need to call an early dismissal.

Due to the timing and expected snow accumulation associated with tomorrow’s storm, Attleboro Public Schools will be closed Tuesday, February 28.

You're invited to A Night to Discover: APS Student Learning and Community Partnership Showcase on March 7, 2023, from 6:00-7:30PM.
