You’re Invited to Join Us for NAAPID
National African American Parent Involvement Day (NAAPID) is the day we celebrate the importance of the role of parents in each child's education. NAAPID will take place on Monday, February 12.
On this day more than others, we invite all parents and adult family members to visit Logan Elementary. According to NAAPID founder, Joe Dulin " Education is the key to success and parents are educators' greatest allies." Please consider spending all or some portion of your day with the Logan Leopards on NAAPID! Teachers will share individual classroom schedules for the day. We will host an all school assembly at 2:00pm.
Young 5s/Kindergarten Round Up
As we get ready for the new year, it’s not too early to start thinking about some of our youngest students who will start their AAPS experience as kindergarten and young fives students in the fall of 2024. Kindergarten Round-Up events are scheduled throughout the month of February and March at all elementary schools and K-8 buildings. We are excited to share with families the fun that awaits your children, meet our school staff, learn about the programs, the enrollment process and get answers to your questions.
Logan’s Round Up will be on Wednesday, February 28, 2024 from 6:00pm until 7:30pm. This event is designed for both children and adults. Families will have time to learn about our programs at Logan while children get to spend time in our classrooms with Logan’s incredible staff. If you plan to enroll a child in either Young 5s or Kindergarten for the 2024-2025 school-year, we hope to see you there!
AAPS Enrollment for 2024-25 Open
Enrollment for the 2024-25 school year opened on Monday, January 8th. The first application window for AAPS In-District Transfer and the ONLY application window for the Community High Lottery and Ann Arbor Open Lottery is Monday, January 8, 2024, to Wednesday, February 14, 2024.
