Albany R-III School District

2026-2027 Albany R-III School District Calendar

9 days to go! 💚🎓💚#ClassOf2026

Just a reminder - Tomorrow 5/1 is the last day we are collecting pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House.

Tomorrow, May 1st, is our VEG Elementary Track and Field Day. We are very excited and look forward to a fun filled day of activities!

We ask that only participants, teachers, and those helping with the event are inside the fenced off area of the track and that spectators watch from the bleachers or stand on the outside of the fence. The running events will take place on the home side of the football field and the field events will take place on the visitors side. If you would like to get a closer view of the field events, you can follow the fence around to the other side to see the jumping pit and throwing areas. While your child is not participating, there will be other activities for them to participate in if they choose to do so.

Please have students wear sunscreen, bring water bottles, and anything else they may need for a day of activities! The forecast is currently showing cooler weather than anticipated. Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately and brings a jacket. All awards will be handed out during the students next physical education class.
