🗣️Mark your calendars!

We hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! Parents, be sure to mark your calendars for APS OPEN HOUSE. 2023- 2024 Open House will occur on July 31st for all neighborhood schools. This is the perfect opportunity to meet your child’s teachers, learn about the bus route and stops, and explore various after-school clubs and daycare providers!

We are excited to announce Mrs. Donna Davis as the Interim Principal! Mrs. Davis brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to her new role. Please join us in congratulating her. We know that she will continue to serve with P.R.I.D.E. 🧡💙

On behalf of our administrative team, thank you so much for coming out. To see the smiles on our students’ faces was priceless. We hope to forge a reciprocal partnership that will facilitate lifting barriers that block hope.

We are proud of Mr. Garner for this achievement. Congratulations! 🧡💙

From our family to yours, Happy New Year. Please remember that school is closed tomorrow. We will welcome our students back on Tuesday. Please be safe. 🧡💙

JLIA parents & guardians—please remember that Tuesday, December 6th is a VIRTUAL DAY. The school will be closed the entire day. We hope that you will make time to exercise your right to vote. 🧡💙

We did not win our last game, but we still had an amazing season! We are proud of our players, cheerleaders, managers, and coaches. Congratulations on showing up to every game full of P.R.I.D.E. We are coming back for a shut out season next year! Next up—basketball! See you all Monday!

APS Families, the day has arrived! Our student telehealth services begin today!

When students are not feeling well, they often miss more school when they can’t see a doctor. We are making doctor and therapy visits available to all students through Hazel, so they can receive care and return to learning faster. Wondering whether your child has allergies or a potential flu? Your child says they have a headache that just won’t go away, and you’re not sure whether it’s serious? Virtual doctor and therapy visits will be available beginning today! (Our on-site telehealth services will roll out on October 31 and November 28 at all traditional APS schools.)

Learn more and sign up at: https://my.hazel.co/atlantapublicschools/

If you have already completed the form, thank you! Spread the word and help us reach 100% of families this week by reminding your fellow APS families to opt-in to this new service.
