Akron Rams Parents and Families, We will NOT have school this Thursday, March 12th. We have numerous Akron staff, students, and parents planning to go and support the Lady Rams this Thursday. We have also had a great deal of illness among our students and staff. Hopefully, the extra day heading into spring break will help. If you are able, please join the Akron crowd and help cheer our Rams on to victory. The success of our school both in and outside the classroom is a testament to the great teachers, families, and community of Akron. These events provide us the opportunity to openly share our support for our children and community. Thank you for helping support our student-athletes. Go Rams!
