Congratulations to the cross country team on an amazing season! We had several personal records, but a special shout-out goes to Sophie Kern for her first place finish and a time of 13:06 (a personal record)! Also, placing at sectionals was Kaydin Quinn with a time of 14:02. During a normal season these two girls would be headed to state. Carter Stroot also finished 13th for the boys and with a time of 13:18. This is a tremendous accomplishment and the hard work and effort everyone put into this season was awesome! Congratulations!

IMPORTANT Abingdon Transportation Information: As of today we are beyond our State Mandated busing capacity (48/bus) for our Abingdon routes. If you have any alternative options - please call your building principal to opt off a bus route. If numbers do not come down, the district will be forced to reduce the number of town riders in Abingdon. A reduction will lead to prioritizing three factors: 1. Country Riders. 2. Daycare facilities. 3. Proximity to Hedding Grade School.
🚨1 week until D276 returns to in-person. Three things you can do today to assist in the final planning:
1. If you plan to stay in Remote - call the office and let them know.
2. If you plan to switch from your original choice of remote to in-person - call your office and let them know.
3. If you stated during registration that you will need transportation- but now can find alternative transportation- call your office and let them know.
