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. View/Download our Remote Learning Guide here: https://5il.co/3tij1

Los 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: https://5il.co/3tij1

Today’s joint Board of Education meeting with local elected officials was a fantastic opportunity to put our students' work in the spotlight at the Career & Technical Education Center. Guests enjoyed a delicious breakfast prepared by Ms. Tiffany King’s culinary students, set among stunning floral arrangements from Southern Alamance High School’s nationally-recognized FFA Chapter Floriculture Team. The talent continued at the tables, where visitors received custom-carved nameplates from Mr. David Miles’ carpentry students and 3D-printed letters from Mr. Bothwell’s Technology and Engineering class. These projects are perfect examples of how our hands-on #ABSSCTE programs empower students to lead, create, and prepare for the future. We’ve also included the graphics from our meeting placemats to highlight the many CTE pathways available across the district! #ThisisABSS
