Thank you to Ms. Armwood for including all of our 8th graders in her Orchestra field trip to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra! What an amazing experience for our students after the direct learning they had from a music grant we received. 🎼 🎻

Good Morning Albright Vikings,
A few reminders for tomorrow!
Tomorrow is a Half Day of school. Attendance on half days are just as important as any other day, so we hope to see everyone. Dismissal times are as follows:
ALBRIGHT-10:53AM
SWARTZ- 10:40AM
SALT CREEK- 10:50AM
Something worth mentioning is that we do not allow students to ride any bus but their own, as it is a safety concern. If your child is planning on going to a friend's house after school please make sure they have a ride from an adult or are walking.
Tomorrow is Halloween, but we do not dress up at school and costumes of any kind are not allowed. Students can always wear festive shirts and fall colors, as we will have a fun fall activity planned for them. Have a great day!


Teambuilding day in PE today! Our Vikings did awesome working cooperatively today!






AVTV is back! Our crew is hard at work to produce a new episode. Stay tuned for more AVTV fun to come with our Viking Updates of the 2023-2024 school year!


AMS science students learned about the rock cycle with a hands on lab.



Opening night of Viking's Boys Basketball and Cheerleading! ❤️🖤🏀📣





Just another after school day at Albright... Video Game Club, Basketball, and Homework HUB!




Last week, 7th and 8th grade Orchestra students got to meet at Willowbrook for a Middle School Invitational. The concert was a huge success.


Albright Middle School is collecting donations of new, unopened socks through Friday, November 3rd to donate to the Clothes Closet, which serves all of York Township. If you're able, please send new, unopened socks with your child to school. Our goal is to collect 200 pairs!


It's pickleball season in PE at Albright! ❤️🖤




Good afternoon, Albright Vikings. We have two reminders for our families. First, our classes start at 7:45am. If your child is not entering the building by 7:43am, they will most likely not make it to class on time. We have recently had an increase in tardies, and these students are missing many important announcements. Please help us with this.
Secondly, all families are required to sign our District Handbook in Skyward each school year digitally, and you do need to sign for each of your children. We have directions here if needed: https://5il.co/27gtq When you sign into Skyward, if the green "District Handbook" tile is not there for you, that means you already signed it.
Thank you so much for your continued support, and have a great weekend!

Thank you to NAMI DuPage for coming and speaking to our students about the importance of mental health. Our students did a wonderful job of staying engaged during these health presentations.
