Graduation Update--2:00 pm
As of now, the weather forecast for tonight looks as promising as it has all week. Still a small chance of showers and/or thunderstorms, so cross your fingers. Everything is still a go for 7:30 pm. Seniors need to be in the gym by 6:00 pm.
However, we received a significant amount of rain yesterday afternoon and last night. Therefore, the field is very soft in some areas. Do not wear heels, as they will sink up on the field. Shoes will probably get a little muddy, so choose wisely.


Be sure to take a few moments and read this article, written by our Superintendent @WashCoSuper, that shares some very real and concerning challenges for many students in Southwest Virginia. Due to a "lack of equal access, an inequitable field of play has been inadvertently created in Virginia."

Governor Glenn Youngkin paid a visit to Abingdon High School today for the signing of three bills passed by the General Assembly this year. Afterwards, students received REVIVE! training and learned about administering Naloxone.

Today we honor those in our buildings who take care of SO MANY things. Where would we be without the SUPERHERO Nurses that are in our schools who care for our students on so many levels? Thank you to the amazing WCPS School Nursing Staff! #WashingtonWay @WashCoSuper


Families,
We often take for granted the time that teachers spend with our children. However, it is in those moments that lifelong lessons are learned that leave a legacy. Please reach out to your child’s teachers to thank them for the legacy they are helping you build through empowering our most valuable resource; our children.
Thank you,
Dr. Perrigan

Today Abingdon High School had their official ribbon cutting ceremony for the newly renovated entrance to the building. This new entrance adds a layer of security to the building - added bonus: It looks great!

Thanks to everyone who attended our ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the upgrades to the front of AHS, the addition of a security vestibule, and the construction of a new SRO office.
