This next week will be our final week of the first semester. As we reach the midpoint of the school year, we want to take the time to say THANK YOU to our staff, students, families, and community. It takes everyone working together to make our school district successful.

Have a great weekend!

Congratulations to Mrs. Sue Hellyer and her elementary students for putting on a great concert. Thank you staff, parents and family members for your support!

Congratulations to Ms. Lowry and her Akron Ram music students for their second place finish in the youth division of the Akron Chamber Christmas parade! The music program won $75 in chamber bucks for placing second.

Congratulations to our Akron FFA students for their performances at district speaking held in Yuma on Wednesday.

A big thank you to Athletic Director, Tyler Pickens, parent and supporters who worked the tournament, coaches who pitched in and helped, and the officials that worked the mats on Saturday. The tournament included 20 teams with 196 wrestlers and would not have been a success without the help of so many.

The Akron Rams had five wrestlers that competed in the tournament and two that placed. Merek Chaney finished 2nd at 113 lbs. and Xavier Livesay finished 2nd at 220 lbs.

The Akron Ram H.S. basketball teams started their seasons at home last Friday against Merino and Tuesday against Brush. Both varsity teams dropped their contests against Merino and the teams split against Brush with the boys falling short and the girls besting the Lady Beetdiggers.

Bad things happen to good people. But good people with great optimism, resilience, and faith ultimately turn the bad into good.

Please check your emails and/or students backpacks for information regarding your students lunch/milk account balance.

Check out the lost and found to look for any missing items before we head into Christmas break. All items left will be donated over break!
