Digging into history--cookie style! Our students in Ancient History practiced the careful work of archaeologists by excavating chocolate chips from cookies. A fun (and tasty) way to learn about uncovering the past.

Happy "International ants on a log day!"

Due to small numbers, there has been an important change to the HS VB match tomorrow (Thursday, September 11th) at Monticello.

Monticello will only be able to play ONE (1) set for the JV match tomorrow night. This isn't ideal, but it is what Monticello needs to do to still follow mandated WIAA rules. Because of this, the varsity match will start around 6:30pm. The JV match will start at 6:00pm, but with only one set it won't take long. As soon as the one set ends, varsity warm-ups will begin.

Please spread the word about this important change!

Good Morning!

The High School Student Council has begun our biggest sale of the year, the Annual Butter Braid Sale!!

Each year, money from this fundraiser is used to cover the costs of Homecoming events and activities. This year, I am looking to expand the use of funds beyond homecoming and extend towards Community service, outreach, and scholarship opportunities for students.

SCHOOL PICTURE DAY
4K-12 students will walk down as classes.

Middle school math and Geometry students spent the beginning of the week improving their communication and teamwork skills as they tried to build the tallest balloon tower and trace and write words by using strings attached to markers.

🌟 JUMPSTART DAY! 🌟

The Albany School District kicked off the upcoming school year with Jumpstart Day—an optional day dedicated to connection, fun, and friendship!

💚 Elementary Students spent the morning getting to know their teachers, learning classroom routines, and building comfort with the flow of the day. In the afternoon, they rotated through exciting activities with staff and classmates—smiles all around!

💚 Middle & High School Students headed to Devil’s Lake for an adventurous day filled with canoeing, geo-caching, swimming, food, laughter, and lasting connections.

It was a wonderful way to begin the year together—strengthening friendships, building community, and setting a positive tone for success.

Go Comets! 🚀✨

The Parkview-Albany Viking varsity football team has its home opener on Friday, August 29th. Game time is set for 7:00pm at Parkview HS vs. Paceli HS. Let's pack the stands and support our Vikings to a victory!!!

Albany families were able to select needed school supplies for their children at our Back to School night, thanks to a generous donation of supplies from the Albany Lions Club. In all, the Lions Club collected supplies and monetary donations totaling over $1,400 during their Stuff the Bus campaign. We are grateful for such a giving community.

For our Jumpstart Day, 4th and 5th grade students used math and science skills to create name tags that had to meet the following criteria: must hold a pencil, be 6in long, stand on its own, show their name, and show 2 things about themselves.

The Albany Comets HS volleyball team has a scrimmage on Saturday, August 23rd @ Evansville HS. The varsity will scrimmage at 9:00am & 11:00am, while the JV will scrimmage at 10:00am. Admission is free to this scrimmage & you will have an opportunity to get a sneak peek of your 2025 Lady Comets volleyball team!
