We celebrate IT professionals on National IT Professionals Day to honor the vital, often unseen work they do to keep our digital world running.
Their best work is usually silent and invisible—when they do their jobs well, systems stay online and nothing breaks.
They manage the networks, servers, databases, and cloud systems that power modern organizations and daily workflows.
They protect sensitive company and personal data from emerging digital threats and security breaches.
They troubleshoot hardware and software breakdowns, acting as essential advocates for every user who relies on technology

Dear APS Families and Community Members, I would like to invite you, your families, neighbors, and friends to our annual Valor Football Game this Friday, September 18, 2026, at 7:00 PM at Wildcat Stadium. This year's game holds special significance as September 18 is National POW/MIA Recognition Day. In honor of those from Alpena County and across the nation who were POWs or remain MIA, the evening will feature: - Military Flyover: A special flyover honoring National POW/MIA Recognition Day. - Tribute: A dedicated moment to honor our missing service members, veterans and first responders. We hope you will join us to pay tribute to our military, veterans and first responders while supporting Wildcat Football.
Sincerely, Dave Rabbideau

We celebrate Grandparents Day to honor grandparents, share family history, and help children learn from the wisdom of older adults.
Goals;
Show love and gratitude for the vital role grandparents play in families and society.
Help young people value the guidance, strength, and life lessons that older adults provide.
Bring family members together to bridge age gaps and pass down family traditions.
Combat loneliness for older adults, which was a core goal of the day's original founder, Marian McQuade.
