Welcome to the new Amphitheater Public Schools website platform

Our new websites are designed to highlight the District and our schools and provide families and staff with the information they need.

While we are excited to launch the new sites, the project does come with a few potential (and temporary) issues. We request your patience and assistance as we continue to refine the pages on each site.

If you need information urgently and can’t locate it on the website or see an error, please email answers@amphi.com, and we will respond and address the concern as quickly as possible, typically the same day or within 24 hours.

For non-urgent help or to provide suggestions or feedback, please copy/paste this link to submit a feedback form: https://forms.office.com/r/qAtdJ18ZhR.

We welcome your input and appreciate your patience and feedback as we continue refining the website throughout the summer. Your ideas will help us make our sites more useful for everyone.
