Congratulations to the Atkins High School Class of 2026!
Good evening Atkins families.
Our yearbook classes have worked hard on this year's yearbook. Our goal was to get it distributed before the end of the school year. Unfortunately, we ran into some technical difficulties and were not able to meet this goal. We will receive the shipment next month. We'll reach out to you with more details on that specific return date and will provide options for you to pick up the yearbook or have it shipped to you.
If you still want to place your order, you can certainly do so!
Rest assured, we have identified strategies to have yearbooks available before the end of the school year next year.

As we wrap up the year, Atkins PTO would like to thank you all for your generous support of our school. Through monetary contributions and donating food items/gift cards to our various events throughout the year, you have helped us show up for our staff and students. They are immensely grateful! Thanks to you, our PTO had a tremendously impactful school year. We helped fill teacher requests for classroom needs, supported numerous clubs in traveling to state and national competitions to successfully represent our school, provided treats for our students and staff, and awarded $4,000 in senior scholarships. At a time when funding for schools is on the decline, we are so grateful that we are here to help bridge the gap and provide some much-needed moral support. We appreciate each and every one of you as YOU make this all possible.
To our senior families - we wish you all the best as the next chapter unfolds. To our returning families - we will see you next year. Have a wonderful and relaxing summer!
All the best,
Atkins HS PTO

Jeremy Strathman - treasurer
