We are glad so many families came out to our Back to School Bash event. They enjoyed free food, prizes, and entertainment. We were able to provide free uniforms, backpacks, books, and supplies for over 300 scholars!
Thanks to our annual Back to School Bash, our scholars have everything they need to be ready for the first day of school! Allendale County School District and its community partners gave away clear backpacks and school supplies for the 2024-2025 school year.
Teachers were invited to sessions based on their subject area. We had over 20 sessions on topics such as data notebooks, behavior management, and computer skills so our teachers are equipped with all the tools they need to be successful.
To ensure that our teachers and staff are ready for the upcoming school year, we held a two-day Teacher's Institute.
We want to ensure that our new employees have a smooth transition. So, we held a New Employee Orientation that included a bus tour, department presentations, and bonding exercises.
Let's give a warm welcome to the newest members of the Tiger Family! We are so excited about all the new employees at Allendale County School District. #TogetherWeCanDoThis
