REMINDER: Returning Student Registration is OPEN for the 2023/2024 school year. Please make sure to complete your child's registration on Skyward for the upcoming year. If you have already done so then no need to read this message any further.No payment is needed at this time. We ask that all families register at this time to allow us to plan for the upcoming year. Planning includes anticipating class sizes and sections, ordering materials and furniture, and assigning staff.

Thank you.
Today was a great first day of IAR Testing at Albright. We started with a walk and ended with bingo and an assembly about positive communication. Go Vikings!! ❤️🖤
Albright students start IAR Testing tomorrow, 4/4. It is very important that our students charge their Chromebook and charge themselves by getting a good night's rest during our testing days. We will test the rest of this week and then on 4/11 and 4/13. Eating a good breakfast is suggested, and getting to school on time is essential. Bringing a water bottle and a book to read during testing is helpful too. Wireless headphones are not allowed, so if they have plug-in headphones, have them bring those instead. We will have backups as needed. Tomorrow is a half day, so we will start with a whole school walk to get everyone moving. Please have your child wear comfortable shoes.
It would be great if you sent some words of encouragement to your child(ren) each testing day. This can be an email to their school account, text, handwritten note, or even a note on their mirror with a dry-erase marker. Your support is very much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Ms. Aulisa

Good afternoon Albright parents. We have become too flexible with parents pulling through on Myrtle Ave. to drop their children off in the morning. This has created three lanes of traffic and more than one car accident this week. I have talked with the Villa Park Police, and for the safety of our students, we will strictly enforce our drop-off procedure once again. Please do not turn onto Myrtle Ave. for any reason during drop-off and pick-up. Here are the procedures if you need a review: https://5il.co/1r6ca
We apologize for any inconvenience they may cause.
Sincerely,
Ms. Aulisa

6th graders designed their own investigations to learn about the strength of electromagnets based on the length of wire.
Science students made electromagnets to kick off our unit on electric and magnetic forces.
6th graders investigate electrical and magnetic forces through static and balloons.
