Just in case you didn’t see, due to technical issues experienced yesterday, elementary school class assignments will be released early next week.

APS Elementary School families, we would like to share an update on elementary classroom teacher assignments, which were anticipated to be released tomorrow, Friday, August 14th. The town and schools have been experiencing internet connectivity issues today, which are affecting several of our services.

Our IT team is actively working to restore service as quickly as possible. As such, elementary classroom teacher assignments will be distributed early next week. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

A huge thank you to Teresa Murtagh and for hosting such a wonderful flower arranging workshop for our Bancroft community. Parents enjoyed a relaxing night out, learning floral design tips, with live music courtesy of some very talented Doherty students, and leaving with gorgeous arrangements to brighten their homes. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this event such a success!

Next up, the Spring Fun Run & Ice Cream Social! Students raced through obstacle courses, dodged parents with pool noodles, crawled through tunnels, tested their aim, and cheered on their classmates every step of the way. After working up an appetite, everyone cooled off with delicious ice cream sundaes and some much-needed water fun to beat the heat! A huge thank you to all of our volunteers, families, and staff who helped make this event such a memorable afternoon.

Don't miss out on Clown Town this weekend!! 70 years in the making, this is one tradition you don't want to miss out on. Andona supports Bancroft (helping finance Ball in the House in past years, furniture for alternate seating and support for arts) and other schools & programs throughout the town, so you're supporting us by supporting them! Plus it's loads of fun ☺️🤡.
