Due to the response to our monthly school supply sales and requests from students to have it more frequently, Academic Partners is proud to announce that we are planning to host the “What Do You Need Wednesday Sale” weekly starting today through Spring Break.     Remind your kids to bring their money and avoid that trip to Walmart while supporting our school.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED  In order to host the sales weekly, we need some volunteers each week to come and help with the sales.  Please look at your calendar and consider signing up to help.  Please note that we can only have the sales each week if we are able to get some volunteers – so check your schedule and see if there might be at least one shift that you could come out and help.  https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0C49AFAC2BA0FD0-what
