The annual Beat Bama Food Fight Food Drive 2022 is going on now at Drake! Which Drake team will come out on top? Daily points will be tallied for items donated, and the winning team will receive outside lunch on the front field and a popsicle! Last year we donated 2,199 pounds of food! How much can we donate this year?
DOWNLOAD TODAY: Auburn City Schools recently introduced the opportunity for bus riders' parents to know their assigned bus's location using the free app "Where's the Bus."
Parents and guardians can see live updates, tracking, and the estimated time of arrival for buses. The school system's objective is to make this application the single communication mode between parents and the transportation department.
To create an account or view updates on a web browser or computer, go to https://wheresthebus.com or download the Where's the Bus app for your device; scan the appropriate QR code in the graphic to be directed to each app store.
Below are step-by-step instructions for setting up your free account.
First, you must know your child's birth date and Student ID number, found under "Demographic Information" within PowerSchool. If a family has multiple children who ride different buses, go to "Account Settings" and select "Add Rider."
Once you launch the app or website, please:
Yearbooks are currently on sale for $35, but this price won't last long! Order before Friday, December 16 to lock in this price! https://jostensyearbooks.com/?REF=A09852026
Due to the traffic limitations in our front driveway and afternoon bus pickup, checkouts will not be permitted after 3:00 PM each day. Please make plans to check your child out prior to 3:00 PM if you have afternoon appointments, etc.
In May 2018, the Board of Education approved Facility Plan 2028, a 10-year plan addressing the demolition, reconstruction and renovation of buildings and the impact of student growth on facilities capacity. Phase I of this plan, which begins in the Fall 2018, includes the renovation and reconstruction of J. F. Drake Middle School. Click HERE to access the PDF to the 2028 Master Plan.
