Dear ACPS Families, Faculty, and Teachers,
For the safety of our students, teachers, and staff, we will remain closed tomorrow, Friday, February 21st, due to road conditions. This is an Employee Code 2, reporting at 10:00 am, and a teacher work day from home. Teachers may enter the school buildings between 11:00 am and 4:00 pm if they can travel safely.
I'm pleased to report that our closures have not slowed the progress our IT team is making with outside cybersecurity experts to remediate our operations after the incident earlier this week.
I hope that you are all safe and warm. We look forward to greeting our students in our school buildings very soon.
Have a good evening,

Our JV Lady Raiders won over Rustburg on the road last night with a score of 36-24. Way to go girls!
After a hard fought back and forth game, the AMS Lady Raiders fell short to LCA 35-27 last night. Great effort girls. It's only going to get better from here. Up next, the Raiders will take a quick trip to Buckingham today to take on the Knights. Let's get it girls!

Good morning Raider families!
We have been investigating the test notification activity some of you may have received early this morning through your PowerSchool app. PowerSchool support has confirmed it was an accidental test from them. They were conducting tests for a new product, and unfortunately, this inadvertently triggered a test notification to all devices with the PowerSchool app installed.
Thank you for communicating it with us. No action is necessary from parents.
We do apologize though for the inconvenience of early morning test communications from the app.
