Hello ACS Families!
What crazy weather we have been having lately! Fortunately it looks like the snow is melting fast. At this point we will be having school tomorrow. Check the web site tomorrow morning to be sure.
We do have a couple slight complications due to the snow. There are large slabs of ice on the roof of the ROC that are melting and sliding off the roof. Mr. Christopherson has blocked off the main entrance to the ROC to keep everyone away from under the eaves of the roof and out of the path of these falling slabs. So please enter the ROC from the right side door (closest to the picnic shelter).
Also, these ice slabs have knocked out the heating unit that heats the main gym area. The classrooms will be heated but the gym will not until it is fixed. Jr. high and high school students, please bring an extra sweatshirt just in case you are cold at lunch.
Town Meeting tomorrow night! Parents, I can not stress enough the importance of attending this meeting. This is your opportunity to voice concerns or suggest ideas about the future of this school and the direction it takes. The administration and school board will be on hand to receive your input and answer questions. Make sure your family is represented by sending at least one parent to this meeting in the Sanctuary at 7:00. There will be childcare in the AWANA room.
Teachers, there will be no teacher meeting tomorrow due to the town meeting. Teacher meeting will be next Monday.
ACS Carnival this Saturday from 6 – 9pm. The carnival is a great time of fun and fellowship! It is also a wonderful fund raiser for our student council. (Now that the playground is up, they are working on equipment the students can use when recess is indoors.) We will be having the Pie-In-The-Face competition, a moon walk (big bouncy thing), the Big Boy Bash, cake walk, and other great games that the kids enjoy. Yes, we will have live fish to win! So come on out, bring your friends, and family for the ACS carnival!
Parents, the Pie-In-The-Face competition was a huge money maker for us last year, we raised more than $500 through that event alone! So if your children wants to bring their piggy bank into school it is because they want to put some money down on a special friend or teacher. Don’t forget the night of the carnival we auction off the chance to be the one to put the pie into the face of each of the top 5 “winners”.
