On Thursday, we celebrated our amazing fifth-grade students at Albany School of Humanities (ASH) as they prepare for a new adventure: middle school!

Principal Marie Culihan, along with dedicated teachers and staff who have supported our students, shared encouraging words for our 70 rising sixth-graders. Students also had the joy of listening to a heartfelt message from Albany High’s Class of 2026 valedictorian, Julia Rosi, who attended ASH during her elementary school years.

Reaching this milestone is just one of many important steps for the Class of 2033, and we wish this group of talented students the very best as they continue their studies.

Thank you to everyone who has supported our students thus far on their academic journey. We know the foundation built during their years at ASH will set them up for a successful future, and we can't wait to see our "red dragons" soar to new heights in the years to come!

Today we made a splash!

Our students had a blast cooling off, making memories and demonstrating teamwork during Water Day.

From relay races to sponge tosses and obstacle courses, it was the perfect way to celebrate a fantastic school year!

Our building just completed a Cultural Culinary Curriculum with a goal of encouraging students to explore diverse cultures through food. As part of the project, students were invited to sample North African cuisine - rice, chicken and vegetables - thanks to an Albany County Improvement Initiative Grant.

Another "sweet" event in Tanya Viveiros' class - Donuts with Dad!

Mother Nature may have changed the date, but our fun was not affected!

Thanks to all who made Field Day 2026 a success - the kids, and the grown ups, had a blast!

Red, white, and blue filled our performing arts center on Friday!

The ceremony opened with a presentation of the colors by the Albany High School Color Guard and then first grade shared what they learned about the history of Old Glory, and other symbols of the U.S.A.

Students also led loved ones in the Pledge of Allegiance and performed two patriotic songs.

Thank you to all who came together to celebrate the Stars and Stripes with us!

Our students were treated to a visit from a "New York Time’s" bestselling author on Tuesday!

Kate Messner shared her story "Axolotl-Ella," a fractured fairytale with an amphibious theme.

After the reading, Messner discussed her writing process and the importance of illustrator collaboration that develops her ideas from brain to book.
