-
The afterschool program will be held on Friday, December 12th. Students in the program will have the opportunity to attend our home basketball game. Pickup will remain at the regular time.

Thank you for your understanding and flexibility during this busy time of year.
Bus Rider Safety Reminder
Student safety is our top priority. All bus riders must present their student ID badge when boarding the bus before and after school.
-
Students without an ID badge will not be permitted to ride the bus, and parents will need to provide transportation.
-
Lost ID badges may be replaced for a $5.00 fee. Please contact your child’s teacher for instructions on obtaining a replacement.
Parents can track their child’s bus route using the MyRide K-12 App, which provides real-time tracking, custom alerts, route details, and instant updates. Instructions for using the app should already have been sent to families of bus riders.
Winter Donation Drives
This season, Alpha Academy is supporting three very important donation initiatives:
-
Alpha’s Angel Tree and Family Donation Pantry
-
The Jamaican Relief Drive, assisting families who have lost their homes or are in need
-
Donations for our honorable senior or disabled veterans
We encourage families to send in donations as soon as possible. Your generosity helps support our community in meaningful ways.
Last Day Before Winter Break
Our final school day before winter break is Friday, December 19th. This will be a half day for students, with dismissal at 11:45 AM.
Thank you for your continued support. We wish you a wonderful and peaceful winter season.
