Bus Schedule Update: Please add 3 hours to your pick-up time tomorrow Monday 9/11 due to a 3-hour delay. For example, if your bus pick-up time is normally 7:39, it will be 10:39 tomorrow. Pickup times may vary by 15 minutes as we continue facing driver shortages. Some drivers are covering double routes.
Our buses will be back out next week! Please use caution, watch for buses with flashing lights and stop signs. It's the law to stop for loading/unloading. 🛑 Let's keep kids safe this busy back-to-school season! 🚸Thanks for looking out, #ABSSCommunity! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwXpA7yKxEs

Graham Football Game Update: The football game between Graham High School and Bartlett Yancey was called off in the second quarter tonight due to safety concerns. The decision was made to stop play after the referee observed a laser beam pointed onto the field.
Both teams' players and spectators were asked to promptly exit the stadium. There were no weapons reported, only the laser beam that prompted the decision. All attendees safely excited the stadium.
The Graham Police Department, School Resource Officers, and ABSS Athletic officials are investigating the circumstances around this incident. At this time, no further details are available. The schools and athletic department thank everyone for their cooperation and regret that this game could not be completed as scheduled.
