We encourage any of you who are able to pick up your student in order to shorten routes. Thanks for your understanding. Dr. Renee Nugent #WeAre409

We have 5 days left until the start of school...can you believe it! Today on our countdown, a reminder that all students eat free this year! You must complete the Household Economic Survey to help families with their textbook and tech fees. If you didn't do that during enrollment, there will be copies at each of the schools. #WeAre409

We are back with day 6 on our countdown to the start of school! This year you will hear a lot about regular attendance. You will hear this often and in every building, "9 Days or Less, For School Success". Any absence counts as one of a child's 9 days. In the next month or so, you will get more information about how we can help ensure students are at school on time every day! #WeAre409

Don't forget...9th Grade Orientation is coming up! This is also for any new student to Atchison High School! #WeAre409

We are 7 days until the start of the school year! Today's reminder is to make sure to sign up for the bus if you didn't when you enrolled. The sooner you get signed up the sooner we can get students in the system! #WeAre409

8 days until the start of the 2023-24 school year! Don't forget to pay your iPad fee. Students will not get their iPads until this is paid for. You can do that through enrollment, online, or call your child's school and they can help you! #WeAre409

Mark Your Calendars!! Back to School Night for ALL Buildings is August 11 from 4-5:30! We can't wait to get the year started! We hope to see all your smiling faces that night! #WeAre409
