The Aubrey High School Band had five recordings advance from the Region level to Area in the ATSSB Outstanding Performance Series (OPS) competition. From there, three recordings advanced from Area North to the state level. State judging just took place, and the band earned the best results in school history. The varsity ensemble, Wind Ensemble, placed fifth in the march category and third in concert selection—referred to as “runner-up,” as two winners are named. The non-varsity Symphonic Band also placed ninth in the concert category. Congratulations to our talented band on this outstanding achievement.

Today we kicked off our New Teacher Academy and welcomed an exceptional group of educators to the Chaparral family! We’re excited to have them on board and can’t wait to see the impact they’ll make.

2025-26 Start and End Times

Parent Portal Now Online The Parent Portal is back online. Thank you for your patience as we transitioned our student data system to the 2025–26 school year.

Aubrey ISD leadership had a great second day of preparation for another great year.

Attendance matters from day one. Here’s what you can do to support student success. The goal is 95%: Be at school on time, every day, all day. Every day counts: Attendance directly impacts student learning and success. Every minute matters: Tardies and early pick-ups interrupt learning. Start strong: Good attendance habits begin in pre-K and kindergarten. Excuse absences promptly: Submit doctor’s notes within three days to avoid unexcused absences. Stay informed: Monitor your student’s attendance in Parent Portal. Contact your student’s campus with questions.

The Aubrey ISD Leadership Summit kicked off today. See photos here: https://www.facebook.com/share/r/19SnSkByZF/?mibextid=wwXIfr

The Parent Portal will be taken offline at 9 a.m. and remain unavailable for the next several days as we transition our system to the new school year. We will notify families as soon as access is restored.

New Personal Communications Device Law Texas House Bill 1481, a new state law, will take effect during the 2025-26 school year and will directly impact student personal communication devices during instructional hours (defined as first bell to last bell). Exceptions are possible with documented medical needs, IEP or 504 accommodations, or other health and safety requirements as outlined by the law. Students may not use personal cellphones, tablets, smartwatches, earbuds or similar devices during instructional hours. This includes lunch, recess and passing periods. Please begin talking to your child now about this upcoming change. Your support will help us create a more focused learning environment. Aubrey ISD will share more information as the plan is developed.
