Legos needed!

We are staring a Lego club for students at Columbia Middle School in Aurora. If you have any legos you no longer want, we will take them! I’m happy to pick up or you can drop them off at school!

There will be no classes for students tomorrow, Jan. 30 at all APS schools and Pickens Technical College due to a higher than anticipated number of staff absences that continue to grow across the district. As a result, we will be switching tomorrow to the Professional Release Day that was originally scheduled on Friday, Feb. 6. Staff who have not submitted absences should still report to their schools and sites.

Please visit aurorak12.org for important details about before- and after-school care, free grab-and-go meals and athletics.

We recognize the impact this may have and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this will cause many of our families. We greatly appreciate your patience and flexibility as we navigate this situation.

Schools will reopen and resume regular schedules on Monday. Feb. 2.
