This winter, every student who receives a warm coat from the Tiger Care Center deserves to stay fully bundled up - and you can help make that happen! We’re collecting new hats & gloves to pair with every coat we provide to students in need. Your generosity will bring warmth, comfort, and hope to children and teens throughout our community.
📍Drop-off Locations (now through December 19th):
All APS School Sites
APS Admin Complex
First American Bank
Every donation, big or small, makes a powerful difference. Thank you for helping us wrap our students in warmth and care this holiday season. 💛🧣

On the 80th & 120th day of school, APS captures a snapshot of the bus ridership to report to NMPED. The information collected on this day is very important and impacts the funding our district receives for transportation. Transportation funding not only supports students' daily rides to and from school, it can also support in-district school field trips.
On Monday, December 1st, if your child is a bus rider please help us provide an accurate count by having them ride the bus. Thank you and see you soon!
Have you completed the 2025 Federal Impact Aid Survey? If you haven't completed the survey, please visit the link below to learn more. You can make a difference and ensure that our school district receives our fair share of federal funds by completing a survey for each of your students in the PowerSchool Parent Portal.

We'll be back from fall break refreshed and ready for #BeHereDay!
See you then!
School resumes and offices will re-open on Monday, December 1st.
