Parents/Guardians:
At the School Board Meeting this week it was approved to cancel school for next Friday, December 18th. Sticking with the 4-day week calendar provides our students with the consistency they need. Please enjoy this much needed extra day of break.

Attention: Ram Football Players, Families, and Fans
Football Friday vs Lyons 7 pm
Akron Fans
The game for Friday 11/20 against Lyons is still a go but with the county going into the red stage there will be some more changes. We are going to allow fans from both teams but will be limited to 3 fans per athlete and 2 fans per coach. If attending we ask you only attend with members of your own household and practice social distancing from others. Doing so we will have a gate list for both teams saying who will be sitting in the stands. We will also be allowing fans to sit in their vehicles. Those fans do not count against our allotted amount of fans as long as they stay in their parking spot during the game.
When entering the facility fans that plan on sitting in the stands please enter our south entrance by the concession stands. Fans planning on sitting in the vehicles for the game enter the North Entrance, Just notify Joann that you are Akron fans sitting in your vehicle.
People wanting to be on the gate list can contact Tyler Pickens @ t.pickens@akronrams.org or Coach Weers. Fans not on the gate list will not be allowed into the stands. We will need to know if you are planning on sitting in the stands by Friday @ 4pm to get you on the gate list.
The game will be streamed on NFHS as always for those not being able to attend.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. This is not ideal but this is what is required to be able to continue to play games. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Attention Akron Ram Fans:
The JV football games scheduled with Caliche tomorrow (October 26th) and Dayspring the following Monday (November 2nd) have been cancelled.

The following images contain information for the Caliche football game this Friday, October 23rd. Refer to these images before attending the game.



Attention: Ram Football Players, Families, and Fans
Through discussion between RE-1 Valley School District including Caliche Schools and Akron administration about visiting fan attendance for the football game on Friday, a decision was made to allow 2 fans per Akron football player. Players will be distributing their 2 tickets to their family members. The expectation for all fans is that masks will be worn at all times and social distancing guidelines will be followed. The guidelines require 6 feet between non-family members. These are very trying times for all involved and we appreciate Caliche Schools working with us to allow a limited amount of our fans into the game. Being able to participate in athletics and watch our kids play is something that should not be taken lightly during this pandemic, please do your part to make sure we can continue to compete. We are excited to be playing football this Friday night. GO RAMS!

Please check your email and/or ALMA for information regarding remote learning for grades 9th-12th. Please contact us if you have any questions.
