In response to potential changes to federal immigration policies and how they might affect our students, the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office has released guidance that can be found here: https://www.attleboroschools.com/page/guidance

As you may be aware, a disturbing nationwide trend has made its way to Massachusetts.
While the Attleboro Public Schools community has not received any reports of these messages yet, they have been reported in several states, including Alabama, California, Mississippi, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee.
In these states, students of color have received texts that have some variation of a message that they have been “selected to pick cotton at the nearest plantation.”
This is an abhorrent trend that does not reflect our values as a school community or a people. Racism in any form has no place in our schools, our community, or our society, and we will stand firm in our efforts to eradicate it.
Massachusetts State Police have been notified of the instances that occurred in Massachusetts, and police in other communities are working with the Commonwealth Fusion Center to investigate the matter and share resources. Please contact your local police should you have received a message as described above.
Thank you for your continued support.
Due to an ongoing lack of rainfall and critically low water supply levels, Attleboro needs your help to conserve water resources.

Dear ACA Families,
We hope this email finds you well. We wanted to take a moment to express our excitement about the incredible first week of school at Attleboro Community Academy! Students have been a joy to have in our classrooms, and we've been impressed by their enthusiasm and eagerness to learn!

This new login screen is the first part in a series of upgrades designed to make the site more secure for families, students, teachers, and staff.
