Please read the note below about updating registration for the upcoming school year from Superintendent Parker (this letter will be in your email as well). This will take the place of our traditional "registration days". All updating of your child's registration information (Phone numbers, emergency contacts, health information etc..) will be done online through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. ALL students, NEW & OLD need to do this!

The registration days previously scheduled for August 16 & 18th are no longer necessary as you can now complete this information from the comfort of your own home! Please call the office during business hours if you have any questions: 517-263-9533.

From Mr. Parker
Hello Maple Community:
We are excited to welcome you and your students back to Adrian Public Schools for the start of another school year. Administrators, Teachers, and Building Staff are already at work getting ready to start the school year and we can't wait to see everybody back. Please read below for important information regarding the start of the school year.

Online Registration for students that attended APS last year: APS is offering online registration updates for students who were enrolled in an APS building last year. This will allow parents the flexibility to update phone numbers, email addresses, and emergency contacts at home through Infinite Campus.

If you do not have an active infinite campus parent portal account, you should have received information last week on how to set up your account. (That information is also attached to this email if you did not receive it.) This included your GUID number which you will need to create your account. This was mailed to the primary parent/guardian. If you did not receive this information please contact your child's school.

Please Note: If you update your address online, it will not be accepted until you provide proof of residency to your child's office.

Examples of Proof of Residency accepted by the Auditors: Lease Agreement, Mortgage Statement, Utility Bill. A Driver License cannot be accepted as a proof of residency.

Online updating of registration information is open from 8/9-8/24.

Alexander Elementary= starting August 16 th.When your information has been verified you will receive an email with the name of your child's teacher. All other information such as menus, volunteer forms, household surveys, etc. will be available at Open House.

IMPORTANT : If you are at a different address than last year, in order to ensure bussing for the start of the school year, you must file a new transportation request at the main office of your child's school by This Friday, August 12th.If you are at the same address, a transportation request is not necessary.

Thank you for all you do to support your child and Adrian Public Schools.

Thank you for all you do to support your child and Adrian Public Schools.

Sincerely,

The NASCAR Foundation is a leading charity that seeks to improve the life and health of children who need it most. The Speediatrics Fun Day Festival is an initiative of The NASCAR Foundation to promote healthy lifestyles of children in local racing communities through racing-themed lifestyle programming.

Today students learned about what NASCAR is and the six pit crew positions. They learned about Michigan International Speedway and the fun facts about the track. They now understand how the flags are used during the race. Students also learned about healthy living and getting active using their RED fit bits to track their steps.

On Friday, August 5, 2022 students and parents will get to take a trip to MIS for the Speediatrics Fun Day Festival where students will enjoy fun activities and meet some drivers for Sunday's race at MIS.

Thank you to our parent volunteers and teachers who are teaching these lessons to our students. Through this event we will receive a $15,000 grant that will go towards Alexander's All Inclusive Playground. Thank you to THE NASCAR FOUNDATION!
