PICTURES AND NEWS
8TH GRADE GRADUATION 2024
The graduation ceremony on Thursday evening went smoothly and was completed in one hour. Students dressed in their finest and were celebrated by an audience of their families, various school staff members, two members of the school board and the assistant superintendent. Awards and certificates of recognition for academic and other achievements were distributed. Each graduate filed up to the stage to receive their graduation certificate and hand shakes from the school board members and the principal. It was a happy evening.

Parents, guardians, and children can conveniently pick up free meal boxes at Saint Albans City School on Tuesdays. Each box contains meals for seven days, including breakfast and lunch. These meal boxes are available to all families with children under 18 in our community. We welcome everyone; no proof of eligibility is required, and no one will be turned away. All meals are intended to be consumed by children aged 18 and under.
