Albion Elementary School

The time has come! Let's see that Purple Eagle Pride! Homecoming spirit week kicks off on Monday, Oct. 5. Here are the themed spirit days for each building. Let's make it a memorable week at ACS!

Come join the fall fun! The Albion High School FFA will host its annual Corn Maze on Saturday, Oct. 17 and Sunday, Oct. 18 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the FFA Land Lab located on Clarendon Road in Albion, just past the Elementary School Entrance. Admission is $3. Proceeds benefit Albion's Future Farmers of America (FFA) Club

Please join us in thanking our facilities and custodial team for all of their hard work and all that they do for our buildings and grounds! Here a few of our team members enjoying a special treat on Friday for National Custodial Appreciation Day.

Friendly competition is underway at the elementary school! Our ES classrooms were sorted into six Eagle Habit Houses for a new challenge this school year. Each house will work together throughout the year to demonstrate the leadership qualities that we want to see in our Purple Eagles. Staff are able to award House Points when they see students being positive examples. There will be additional special challenges throughout the year for students to earn points and show their House pride. House Point totals are displayed on the TV screens throughout the school so students can keep an eye on where their house ranks each week.

We are excited to see how this approach helps students understand that every choice matters, every voice matters, and everyone has a role to play in helping their House and their school SOAR!

What a truly exciting time it is to be a Purple Eagle. This school year isn't an ordinary year... Albion CSD was established in 1876, making this year our 150th Anniversary. The entire district is captured here to commemorate the year and celebrate being part of the Albion Legacy... 150 years in the making.

Plus...check out the 125th Anniversary photo taken in 2001! 🦅📸👀

Welcome back, Purple Eagles! Happy first day of school! 🦅📚✏️👏

Our new teachers had the opportunity to explore and learn more about Albion as part of their orientation! Thank you to Panek Farms, First Presbyterian Church, Orleans County Courthouse, Cobblestone Museum, and Mt. Albion Cemetery for helping us give them a warm welcome to the Albion community!

We are pleased to share that the Albion BOE has appointed Mike Sanders as Albion’s new Athletic Director.

Sanders has taught middle and high school English for 16 years, the past 8 at Albion schools. He is a proud Albion alumni and dedicated member of the community. He has coached in various capacities at Albion since 2018, most recently taking on the role of varsity wrestling coach in 2022. He brings a passion, familiarity, and deep commitment into the new role.

“Education and athletics have truly defined my life, and that foundation was built right here in Albion,” said Sanders. “Growing up as a Purple Eagle taught me the value of community, grit, and pride. It’s that same deep-rooted love for the Albion community and athletics that makes me want to give back to our athletes and coaches, help elevate our athletic tradition, and guide them toward success.”

Please join us in congratulating him and wishing him well as he transitions into his new role. Read the full announcement here: https://www.albionk12.org/article/3092526
