The Kieberger campus conducted an EVACUATE drill today, September 30. All our students and staff did a great job, way to go Panthers!
During the EVACUATE drill, students and staff exit the building to a location. An EVACUATE drill is very similar to a fire drill.
Drills are for staff and students, and are educational opportunities to practice life safety skills. We encourage you to talk with your child about today’s EVACUATE drill.

What is the EVACUATE Action?
The EVACUATE Action is called when there is a need to move people from one location to another for safety reasons. EVACUATE may be on-site, or offsite, and may be resolved quickly, result in early-dismissal, or require organized reunification of students and parents/guardians at another location. During EVACUATE, all students and staff move in an orderly fashion to a safe area.
Examples of EVACUATE Conditions
The following are some examples of when a school or emergency dispatch might call for an EVACUATE Action.
Power outage
Fire
Gas leak
Bomb threat
Event at the school that results in the school being deemed a crime scene

Good morning Panther Nation! Based on information received regarding the weather forecast and travel conditions in our area, the school day and bus schedules will proceed as normal today, Thursday, September 25. As always, we encourage everyone to exercise caution when traveling to school. Thank you to our Transportation team and the APPD for their hard work and diligence when checking road conditions this morning to help keep our students and staff safe! Stay safe and dry Panthers!

Aransas Pass ISD administration is actively monitoring the forecast for potentially inclement weather on the evening of Wednesday, September 24 through the morning of Thursday, September 25. Although we would all be grateful for the rain, based on information received from the National Weather Service, there is a marginal risk of severe thunderstorms and flash flooding.

The safety of our students and staff is always our top priority. In the event that travel conditions on Thursday morning are anticipated to be unsafe, we will provide additional updates regarding the school schedule via email, phone call, text message, District social media accounts, and local news media. Stay safe Panthers!

Reminder, this Friday our Varsity Panther football team is HOME against London, with Perfect Attendance Panthers before kick-off!

Students with perfect attendance at the district official attendance time (10AM) for the entire week of each home varsity football game will receive FREE admission and be eligible to run through the tunnel before the game!

This Friday:
🐾Gates open at 6PM, we recommend getting to the stadium early!
🐾Students will report to the concession stand entrance area and run the field at 6:30PM.
🐾No parents allowed on track or field.
🐾Please pick up students at the same entrance after completion of tunnel run.

Campuses will check weekly attendance on Fridays before home varsity football games and provide a wristband to each student with perfect attendance for the week. This wristband will grant the student free entry to the game.

Students must have their wristband to enter the game, and to enter the field to run through the tunnel. No replacement wristbands will be provided in the event the wristband is lost. Free admission will only be granted to the student. Accompanying parents/guardians and others with the student will be required to purchase a ticket online.
