CARING FOR OUR COMMUNITY
Albertville Primary School has partnered with the Hanover Area Food Shelf to aid in their toy and mitten drive. The Hanover Area Food Shelf collects and distributes donations to serve the needs of families residing in Albertville, St. Michael, Hanover, Rockford, Loretto, and Greenfield.
To help us with this worthy cause, please send new unwrapped toys for boys and girls ages birth to age 18, as well as hats and mittens.
Donations can be dropped off in the office or sent with your child to school. Collection will begin on December 2 and run through December 6.
Thank you for supporting this deserving cause!

Veteran's Day - Pledge of Allegiance Ceremony
Albertville Primary School is honored to invite Veterans to join us for a special ceremony in recognition of Veterans Day. We will hold an all-school Pledge of Allegiance and flag-raising outside the main entrance at 8:15 AM on Monday, November 11.
We warmly welcome all Veterans to attend and participate in this meaningful event. If possible, please wear your military attire to help us celebrate your service. We look forward to honoring our Veterans together.
ILLNESS and KIDS
Help us keep all of our students healthy!
We are very fortunate to have a nurse on staff here at
Albertville Primary. At Bright Beginnings we try to adhere to the same rules as the entire district. Occasionally we may have an “epidemic” of a certain illness due to the age of our students and the tendency to place things in their mouths. Please do not send your child to school if they have had a fever, diarrhea or vomiting in the past 24 hours.
Please remember, if your child is diagnosed with COVID-19, Croup, RSV, or Strep, please EMAIL your child's teacher to report their absence.
Parents and/or emergency contacts will be called in case of illness at school.
