Advance Schools WILL be in session tomorrow, Monday April 7th. There are several places that may be impassable in our bus routes. We will make adjustments to routes to pick up as many of our students as possible. Please be patient as some pick up and drop off times may be different. If the bus cannot get to you or you cannot safely drive out of your home to school, please let the school office know in the morning.

Advance FEMA gym is open as a precaution as storms continue to roll in. Everyone stay safe.

Advance Schools will not be in session tomorrow, Friday April 4, 2025. This WILL be an AMI day. We still have several without power and the clean up continues for many of us. The school will be prepared to serve food again tomorrow. Please let us know if you need anything. We also have cases of water and cleaning supplies. Someone will be at the school until at least 6 pm tonight if you need anything. We will be back at 8 in the morning. We have some limited personal hygiene products as well. Please do not send any more clothes to us. We are looking for a more suitable organization that can better handle the donations.

Due to the storms last night and the debris left behind, Advance Schools will not be in session tomorrow. We do not know the extent of debris over roads and do not want to take a chance of buses and students traveling over down power lines or other hazards. Please take this opportunity to help our community members who have suffered damage and loss from the storms last night. As we hear of any clean up efforts we will let everyone know.

Advance R-IV Families:
In an abundance of caution Advance R-IV Schools will be dismissing at 12:30pm today. This afternoon will be an AMI(Alternative Method of Instruction) day,. Students will be able to access work via Google Classroom, or it will be given out by teachers before students leave campus.
The FEMA safe room will be open by 2:00pm.
