Due to continued hazardous road conditions, we will transition to a Remote Learning Day on Tuesday, January 27. This means all schools and facilities will be closed for students and staff. Students should work on their remote learning assignments. No athletics or afterschool activities. Remote Learning Days are flexible school days where students work at their own pace on posted assignments, also known as asynchronous work. While there are no required live classes, teachers are available during optional office hours if students have questions. Students are expected to complete all activities and reach out to their teachers if they need assistance. Work is due within five days of returning to school.

https://5il.co/3tij1Los días de aprendizaje a distancia son días escolares flexibles en los que los estudiantes trabajan a su propio ritmo en las tareas asignadas, lo que se conoce como trabajo asincrónico. Si bien no hay clases presenciales obligatorias, los profesores están disponibles durante el horario de consulta opcional para responder las preguntas de los estudiantes. Se espera que los estudiantes completen todas las actividades y se comuniquen con sus profesores si necesitan ayuda. Las tareas deben entregarse dentro de los cinco días posteriores al regreso a clases presenciales. Consulte o descargue nuestra Guía de aprendizaje a distancia aquí:

We are closely monitoring the incoming winter weather. Students are bringing learning packets home today for potential remote instruction. If power outages occur, we may move to a full closure instead. Safety is our priority! Watch for updates via call, text, email, social media, and posted on our website.
Estamos monitoreando de cerca las condiciones meteorológicas invernales. Hoy los estudiantes llevarán a casa material de estudio para una posible instrucción a distancia. Si se producen cortes de energía, podríamos optar por cerrar las escuelas por completo. ¡La seguridad es nuestra prioridad! Manténganse atentos a las actualizaciones a través de llamadas, mensajes de texto, correo electrónico, redes sociales y en nuestro sitio web.

In anticipation of inclement weather conditions, ABSS will operate on a three-hour delay tomorrow, Tuesday, December 9. This means bus routes will also be delayed by three hours.
We will continue to monitor conditions throughout the county overnight and early morning to determine if a full closure is necessary.
The delay will allow for more daylight as everyone begins traveling in the morning. Staff and families are urged to use caution and give themselves extra time to get to school and work in the morning.

Due to a hazardous weather outlook and winter weather advisory issued by the National Weather Service for our area, Alamance-Burlington School System will be closed for all students and staff on Monday, December 8, 2025.
This means all schools and facilities will be closed for students and staff, and there will be no after school activities. Forecasts show a rain and snow mix beginning mid-morning, transitioning to all snow early afternoon.
We tracked the weather overnight, hoping to avoid a closure and preserve instructional time with our students. We understand that late calls are hard on everyone, and thank you for your understanding.
Thank you, and please stay safe!

What an incredible week for our Alamance Virtual School middle schoolers! From November 10-14, Ms. Tonya Dobson's science class had the adventure of a lifetime at Yellowstone National Park. Students learned directly from experts—renowned wolf observer Rick McIntyre, wolf researcher Taylor Rabe, Yellowstone Forever's field education manager Sam Archibald, and guide Melissa Dowland—exploring everything from wildlife and plants to the park's stunning geological and geothermal features. And as if that wasn't enough, they even witnessed the Northern Lights!
