Welcome to Ashland-Greenwood Public Schools
I would like to welcome you to Ashland-Greenwood Public Schools. Having been organized in 1866, AGPS is rich in tradition!
Ashland-Greenwood is defined by our strong family-oriented community and our commitment to excellence in education. As a whole, Ashland-Greenwood Public Schools is committed to its mission of cooperatively promoting life-long learning, to awaken, develop and enhance individual potential.
AGPS enrolls nearly 950 students annually. Students experience a personalized environment due to small student to teacher ratios, but also benefit from comprehensive course offerings, a fully implemented 1:1 laptop initiative, newly renovated facilities and a wide-range of co-curricular activities.
“Raise your standards and the universe will meet you there.” Anonymous
As our administrative team discussed this year’s mantra, we came to a consensus that continuing “RAISING THE BAR!” in 2019-2020 was so very appropriate. This past year provided challenges related to weather, flooding, growth, etc… Without question, such challenges could/should have caused negativity, ambivalence, and complacency to creep in. However, I am so very proud of the continued commitment of our staff and community to rise above all else and to put our students at the center of all we do!
As I continue to operate in my current role, I observe on a daily basis the high bar and expectations that exist within this great district. A huge factor in maintaining such a high bar is a tremendous amount of collaboration and fellowship among all invested stakeholders. Thus, once again, I am so looking forward to 2019-20 and “RAISING THE BAR” to even greater heights!
I encourage and welcome your participation in Ashland-Greenwood Public Schools. Thank you for your continued support.
Mr. Jason Libal
