Just a reminder Albany R-III will be in session on Monday, May 12th. VEG will have Track and Field Day. Our last day for the school year will be May 15th. It will be a full day. Thank you!
It will be close to 6:00 before the 3rd and 5th grade get back from the Royals game.
This week, we raise our voices in a Warrior-worthy salute to the heart of Albany R-III—our incredible teachers.
They are the early-morning motivators, the lunchtime listeners, the after-school encouragers. They are the ones who see potential when it’s hidden, who challenge students to reach farther, and who show up—day after day—with purpose, patience, and passion.
From the ABCs to college credits, from kindergarten smiles to senior send-offs, our Warriors educators don’t just teach—they inspire, ignite, and empower.
Let’s flood them with love this week. Send a note, share a story, or simply say thank you.
Because our classrooms are full of champions—and the greatest among them stand at the front.
