Hello ACS Family,
I hope you have all had a relaxing break and a peaceful Easter holiday. As those of you who have been with ACS know, the last quarter of the school year tends to fly by quickly. The nice weather also tends to have an adverse affect on students and their studies. Who can blame them for wanting to be outdoors instead of doing their homework? Please help your student stay focused going into the home stretch of this school year.
Yours In Christ,
Mrs. Young
Easter Egg Hunt—Friday, March 28 during lunch. Students are each asked to bring in a dozen filled plastic eggs for the hunt. All students participate (yes, even seniors)! Younger siblings are invited to attend and need to bring a dozen eggs. Home room moms, please be at school by 10:00 to help me hide the eggs.
Teacher Surveys— Parents please return these by Wednesday. The Academic Committee appreciates you taking the time to help us make this school better.
College/Dual Credit Students— we need you to send an official transcript to ACS from SFCC in order for you to get credit for your classes.
High School Planning Night—Thursday, April 10 at 7 pm in the AWANA room. This is a mandatory meeting for students grades 8-11 and their parents. We will be planning your classes for next year. Class of 2009, you will be voting on your graduation date.
