Today VEG Elementary students will bring home a flyer for our new program called Good Dads, Strong Schools. Wee Care to 5th grade students are invited to attend with their Dad, Granddad, Uncle, or Father figure. There will be a short activity and donuts from 7:00am to 7:30am on Friday, April 17th. We hope to see you there!

As election day approaches, the Albany R-III School District is asking voters to consider the Warriors C.A.R.E. (Community Action Reinvesting in Education) bond issue—an investment in the future of our students, staff, and community.

If approved, this initiative will support critical improvements including:

Replacing aging windows and restoring building exteriors
Addressing drainage and flood mitigation concerns
Upgrading HVAC systems, lighting, and safety features
Enhancing learning environments across the district

Many of our facilities have reached or exceeded their expected lifespan, and these proactive updates will help ensure our schools remain safe, efficient, and supportive spaces for learning.

Please remember to vote on Tuesday, April 7.

Tomorrows MS track meet at King City has been cancelled.

HS track practice has been cancelled today.

Albany R-III School District is proud to offer the following services to students, staff, and our community. It is our goal to continue providing this level of service while adding amenities that benefit the lives of our fellow citizens.

We are excited to announce our VEG Elementary Students of the Month for March, recognizing their outstanding demonstration of the character trait of Cooperation. Their dedication to working well with others sets a wonderful example for all students at VEG!

Max Holtzclaw, 5th Grade: Max has excelled in group activities, particularly during the recent science fair, where he collaborated effectively with his partner. His willingness to assist others and address potential issues before they escalate showcases his commitment to teamwork.

Emersyn Parkhurst, 1st Grade: Emersyn exemplifies cooperation in every aspect of her school life. She is an exceptional partner, consistently follows instructions, and provides support whenever there is a substitute teacher in the classroom.

Congratulations to both students!

Tonight's home baseball game against Gilman City has been cancelled.

3rd through 5th grade students should have received a MAP informational letter and encouragement letter. Please send back the encouragement letter by next Friday, April 10th. If you need an additional copy please contact your child's teacher or Mrs. Freeman at VEG.

Also, if you are willing to donate snacks or peppermints for testing you may send those to the elementary as well! Thank you!

Senior & Senior Parents: There will be a senior trip on April 15th (more details to come), and because of this, senior cap & gown pictures are now scheduled for Tuesday, April 7th, after vo-tech students arrive.
