Special thanks to Intersect and Jill Cody with Lamar Advertising for these amazing mini billboards of our cadets! We are so proud of our class of 2024 cadets, Skylar Gill and Raul Padilla for being a part of Intersect's Be the Majority campaign. These cadets promised to be a part of the majority of teens not participating in activities where there are drugs, and alcohol present. #MakeYourDreamsTakeFlight

Huge thank you to APA alums, Preston, 2019, and Vanessa McNeal, 2023, courtesy of Loose Funeral Home, for the donuts this morning!

Good evening! We're excited for tomorrow, the first day of our 2024-2025 school year! Here is a compounded post with drop off and pick up locations for all three entities.

Dear Families,
We are excited to announce that we adopted a new form of school-to-home communication at Anderson Preparatory Academy. ParentSquare is designed to keep parents informed and facilitate participation at school. It provides a safe way for the school principal, teachers, staff, and parents/guardians to:
Send and receive school and class information
Share pictures and files
See calendar items
Sign up to volunteer
and much, much more . . . all in one centralized place!
Parents – Getting Started video
We will no longer be using Remind as Remind was acquired by ParentSquare and will be closing sometime this school year. All school/grade level and classroom information will now be sent to your computer or phone via email and/or text or you can download the free App from ParentSquare.
The Help & Support question mark in the top right corner can help answer most of your questions. If you have additional questions you may reach out to Capt. Rue at brue@goapa.org Can't wait for you to join in!
