Thank you to the Reeves family for bringing Jake's rib to our faculty and staff to celebrate teacher appreciation week. Thank you to the students and parents who spoiled the teachers this week. We have the very best at APS!

WHAT A GREAT WAY TO END THE YEAR! Upon hearing news of the choir of the day trophy, our Mixed Choir learned today that they were also one of two choirs to win the Choir of the Week trophy! This means that out of 6 choirs per day for two weeks, your Alex Mixed Choir was one of the top two Choirs in the entire two-week long contest! With it being the last day of school, not all are pictured here, but what a wonderful year for these Longhorn Musicians! Congratulations and good job, Choir!

Our students and staff have been busy this week! We've got lots of new photos uploaded to the Yearbook fundraiser website.

We appreciate all of the love and support shown to our teachers during this week. Thank you to the Foster family and the Bates family for the sweet treats!

Thank you to the Main St. Church of Christ for making lunch for the Alex Faculty and Staff. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to the best teachers!

Students should have turned in all library books and technology by the end of the week. Any items checked out by your child and not returned, will need to be found or paid for. Thank you for helping us find the missing items!

This group just found out today that they won the competition trophy for last week's contest! This means that they placed ahead of all other much larger schools that they competed with that day! They were awarded all straight superior ratings and brought home a trophy for those ratings, which qualified them to be in the running for overall choir of the day. This is quite an accomplishment and we are so proud of the hard work this group has put in this year. It has definitely paid off! Great job, Horns!

Congratulations to these students that placed in the top 10 at the Tournament of Champions Scholastic contest!

Thank you for your support of Alex 4-H and our efforts to raise money for the Oklahoma Children’s Hospital Foundation!!!

Thank you First National Bank of Alex for making lunch for our amazing teachers at APS! It's Teacher Appreciation Week and we have the best!

Our mini senior conference was great. Our students had sessions on stresses after high school (mental health), housing/renting mortgage info, insurance, banking, and car maintenance. We are thankful for our Alex alumni who gave our seniors great information that they don't always know they need. Thank you KK's pantry and Mrs. Loggins for providing lunch to our seniors.
