Last night marked the end of an era. Beginning next year, the Albany Comets and Monticello Ponies will co-op in boys' basketball. A hard-fought, spirited game on youth night, followed by a collective picture displaying a strong future, made the night historic! Thank you to Second Crop Creative for capturing so many amazing pictures of the Ponies and the Comets!

Honoring the past with a BRIGHT future. Go Space Stallions!

Today, we had a very special friend help us out by spending his C.A.R.E coupons to announce the Pledge of Allegiance to the entire school. She did an AMAZING job.

Our kindergarten students participated in an Art Walk, where they viewed and shared positive comments about their classmates’ artwork. With the art show approaching, this was a great way for students to practice looking closely at art and learning how to give kind, thoughtful critiques.

Congratulations to Albany HS boys basketball player Ty Durtschi for surpassing 1,000 career points in the varsity game on Saturday, January 31st @ Brodhead. This is an impressive feat for any basketball player, but even more so for it to happen in only Ty's junior season. Congratulations Ty!
