THANKSGIVING FOOD DRIVE
Dear Parents and Guardians,
This year we will be having a Food Drive to help provide for our students and families who may need these items for the Thanksgiving Holiday.
Alex Schools will have a competition to see who can bring the most non-perishable food items for the Food Drive. Items that would be used for Thanksgiving dinner are encouraged. Examples include canned green beans and corn, chicken broth, cranberry sauce, cream of mushroom soup, dessert mixes, canned fruit, instant mashed potatoes, Jell-O, pie crust mix, pie filling, stuffing mix, canned sweet potatoes, turkey gravy, and French-fried onions.
We will begin the Food Drive on Monday, October 30th, and it will run through Monday, November 13th.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR FAMILY TO BE INCLUDED AS RECIPIENTS, please fill out the form sent home with elementary students and return it by Friday, November 1st. There are additional copies of the form in the high school and elementary offices if needed.
Thank you all for your continued support of our school!
Sincerely,
Doug Tolson & Nicole Bauman
Alex Public School Administrators

This is a friendly reminder to our 9th and 10th grade students. The PreACT is tomorrow. Bring 2 #2 pencils (no mechanical pencils) and a calculator. Eat breakfast and be ready to test by 8:00 am. Good luck to our students.
Friday was a big day at APS! Junior high and high school students wrapped up Red Ribbon Week with a moving account from Jamie Ayer, the sister of Diana Boatwright, about her experience after being hit by a driver under the influence. Students were also served lunch by Officer Rhyne and Bridge Creek's SRO Hogan. Then, we welcomed elementary students and their families for Trick the Halls before having our weekly Fight Song Friday! Days like these are fun for everyone - thanks to everyone who made it happen!
It's perfect weather to be inside and play some Bingo. We have some great prizes and have bundled several together to auction off at 6:45. After that, we will continue playing bingo. See you at 5pm!
Book Fair starts Monday Oct 30th. Family Night is Halloween night 4 to 7. Hope to see you all.
Saturday is the DAY! Fall Carnival: October 28th from 5-7 in the High School Commons! Tickets for games can be purchased at the door, please bring additional cash if you'd like to play bingo and for the concession! Don't forget about supporting our TSA Carnival King & Queen contest. Proceeds from this contest will benefit Parker Ross-Underwood and his family as they travel to Houston for medical treatments. Support this great family and come have a wonderful time!
We are excited about Bingo tomorrow! The prizes are still coming in, but we have a lot to offer. We will pause bingo around 6:45pm to auction off some of the remaining prizes. See you there!
Carnival King and Queen Candidates, please bring your money to the elementary office tomorrow so we can begin to tally money. We will still accept money at the carnival but it makes the process easier if we can pre-count on Friday. We will also have someone sitting at the King and Queen table Saturday to accept money and help sell raffle tickets. We can't wait to see the final count!!!

Today was the reveal for the shirt designed for Parker Ross-Underwood, an Alex fifth grader fighting an aggressive cholesteatoma. TSA members Jaydanne Landeros, Kendyll Dunn, and Nashaya Jackson presented the shirt to Parker and the 5th grade class, taught by Mrs. Smith. These shirts will be for sale for $20 at the carnival for anyone who would like one. This money will go towards Parker’s medical bills and travel expenses as he and his mom travel to MD Anderson. For anyone who would like to do a direct donation, there is an account set up at First National Bank. We appreciate all of the enthusiasm so far from our king and queen candidates. It's been a lot of fun seeing the creativity from candidates in support of their fellow Longhorn. Winners of the king and queen contest will be announced at the carnival on Saturday night!
Come join us for Bingo this Saturday!
Make sure to order your yearbook before the price increases! Order online through the link on the APS website or pick up an order form in the HS/Elem. office. Yearbooks are $45.00 but the price increases after Nov. 3rd.
