Welcome Back Letter – 2025-2026 School Year
Dear Students and Families,
We hope this letter finds you well and that you’ve had a restful and enjoyable summer. As we gear up for the 2025–2026 school year, the entire team at Appomattox County High School is excited to welcome back our returning students and greet our new Raiders joining us for the first time. The start of a new school year is always a time of great energy, new opportunities, and the promise of growth, and we are eager to begin this journey with you.
We look forward to seeing everyone at our Open House/Registration Day on Tuesday, August 5th, from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM. This is a great opportunity to walk the building, pick up schedules, pay fees, and reconnect with teachers and staff. It's also a perfect time to make sure you’re ready for the first day of school and to get any questions answered before the year officially begins.
In addition to our regular Open House activities, we are pleased to offer a special opportunity for our incoming 9th grade students and their parents/guardians. While not required, we encourage families of 9th graders to attend one of our optional transition meetings held throughout the day. These sessions are designed to help students and families better understand the expectations of high school, learn more about academic and extracurricular opportunities, and hear helpful tips to support a smooth and successful transition.
Each meeting will cover the same information, so please attend the time that works best for your schedule. The 9th grade informational meetings will be held in the ACHS auditorium at:
12:00 PM
2:30 PM
4:30 PM
We are excited about all the great things happening at Appomattox County High School this year. Whether you are entering your final year or just beginning your high school journey, we are committed to providing a supportive, engaging, and challenging environment where every Raider can thrive.
Enjoy the rest of your summer, and we look forward to seeing you on August 5th!
Warm regards,
Luke Cunningham
