A.B. Combs families,

We had a great time on our school-wide movie field trip on Tuesday.  We also hosted a group of Raleigh business leaders with the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce at Combs on Wednesday.  Our amazing Combs chorus shared their talents on Friday.  Leadership is in action every day at Combs!  Due to Winter Break, another weekly message will not be sent out until Sunday, January 5th.

Science Fair:  We will host a Science Fair & STEM Night on January 22nd (judging occurs during school hours; family STEM night begins at 6pm)  All information regarding the Science & Engineering Fair can be found on the school website.

After-School Activities: We are excited to host various after-school paid activities beginning again in January.  You can preview information about after-school Tennis, Soccer, Chess, and Basketball classes that will be held here at Combs. LEGO Play Well is also offering after school activities for K-2 and 3-5.

Magnet Tour: Do you know of families who are interested in A.B. Combs for the 2025-26 school year?  We have upcoming tours listed on our website.
