Student Device Deployment - Device Contract
We have begun distributing devices to all of our Logan Leopards. By the end of this week, we hope to have distributed devices to all 2-5 grade students. We’ll distribute Y5-1 grade devices as soon as theft are delivered to Logan. All students will be receiving a Chromebook. We are asking all families to sign the AAPS Device Contract. You can find the link to the contract here. Devices will travel between school and home regularly. We ask that you charge your student’s device every night and help them remember to send it back to school.
Zoom Licenses
Zoom has a new security feature that will impact all families. When attending a virtual meeting at school (PTO meeting, special ed team meeting, parent conferences, etc), parents will need to navigate this security feature. You will only be able to access the meeting if you have a zoom license or log in from your child’s Chromebook and AAPS user account. In order to ensure that you are able to log into meetings, we encourage families who do not currently have a Zoom account to 1) create a free Zoom account to access meetings more seamlessly, or 2) use your child's Chromebook and AAPS user account.
***Parents will need to do one of these two options to attend curriculum night. If you already have a Zoom account, you may login to your existing account prior to joining Curriculum Night Sessions.
NWEA Testing - Letter from Dawn Linden, Assistant Superintendent, Teaching & Learning
AAPS and Logan will be administering the NWEA Measures of Academic Progress assessment (MAP) to all students in grades K-5 this fall. Please see the attached letter from Dawn Linden, Assistant Superintendent of Teaching & Learning, for further information.
Fall into After-School!
AAPS Rec & Ed is excited to offer several after-school classes focused on fun, learning, movement, and discovery. For the health and safety of all participants, the AAPS Covid-19 Protocols will be followed. Registration is now open, and spots are filling quickly!

Youth Volleyball Opportunity
Youth Volleyball is back for both boys and girls grades 4-9. Registration is now open through September 14! Practices start the week of Oct 11 and games start October 23 (Saturdays only). Find all info at https://www.a2schools.org/Page/4393

Questions? contact Karen at draves@a2schools.org.
Lunch Volunteers Needed
Lunch is one of our busiest times of day, and our COVID-19 safety measures add an extra layer of complexity. Having a large number of volunteers really helps lunchtime run smoothly. Thank you to our PTO for putting out a volunteer sign up. If you are available to volunteer in the lunchroom, we would love to have you. Volunteers must be fully vaccinated (two weeks from your second shot of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine or two weeks from your single dose of the Johnson and Johnson vaccine), and all volunteers must wear a mask at all times. Please consider signing up!
