Good afternoon, elementary parents, The elementary basketball season for boys and girls in grades 4-6 will begin on Wednesday, March 5th, from 4:00 - 5:20 PM, followed by a parent meeting at 5:30 PM. Due to low participation in the girls' program, all girls in grades 4-6 will practice and compete together this season. However, because of high participation in the boys' program, it is likely that only 5th and 6th graders will compete in games, while an alternative plan will be developed for 4th-grade boys. Coaches will provide more details after the first practice once the final numbers are confirmed. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to a great season!

The boys basketball team will be playing on Tuesday March 4th at 4:00 for their last district tournament game. Students will be dismissed at 2:45 to attend the boys basketball game; if your child will miss school on Tuesday to attend the Boys' Basketball District 5 tournament in Williston, please notify the school to confirm their absence. These will be marked as extracurricular and won’t count against attendance. A list of excused students will be maintained, and attendance will be checked at the game. If a student doesn’t arrive, the absence will count per policy. Unverified attendees will be documented and handled accordingly. Contact the office with any questions.

At Alexander Public School, the safety and well-being of our students and staff are our top priorities. Today, as part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe and drug-free learning environment, we conducted a Code Orange procedure in collaboration with local law enforcement.
A Code Orange is not a lockdown but a structured procedure that allows for a thorough, efficient, and orderly sweep of the school using a trained law enforcement K-9 unit. During this time, normal classroom instruction continued with minimal disruption while law enforcement officers and school administrators carried out their inspection.
We appreciate the cooperation of our students, staff, and law enforcement partners in ensuring a safe and positive school environment. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the school.
