Early release
Today we celebrate an incredible milestone for the graduates of Abilene Public Schools! 🟧🎓
As you walk across the stage and turn the page to a new chapter, remember that you carry with you more than a diploma. You carry the values that helped shape who you are. Through accountability, cooperation, integrity, perseverance, and respect, you have shown what it truly means to be an Abilene Cowboy/Cowgirl and a leader for today and tomorrow.
Like the Abilene Core Values Seal represents, these values are not just words , they are the foundation for the future you are building. Hold onto them as you chase your dreams, face challenges, and create a life filled with purpose and success.
Your community is proud of all you have accomplished and excited to see where life takes you next. May your future be bright, your opportunities endless, and your hearts always guided by kindness and character.
Congratulations, Class of 2026! Your journey is just beginning, and the best is yet to come.

Happy Principals Day
Today we’re proud to shine a spotlight on some of the unsung heroes of USD 435 Abilene Public Schools—our incredible bus drivers! 🚌💛

Rain or shine, early mornings and long afternoons, they show up with dedication, patience, and a genuine care for every student they transport. They’re often the first smile of the school day and the last friendly wave on the way home.

Bus Driver Appreciation Day is the perfect time to recognize the commitment, safety, and kindness they bring to our community every single day. Thank you for going the extra mile (literally!) to keep our students safe and supported.

Join us in giving a big THANK YOU to our amazing bus drivers! We appreciate you!
