Greetings ACS,
Happy November! As the election approaches, I encourage
us all to exercise our freedom to vote! Please take the time to pray about our
country and this election; and, please vote your moral values! It is a
wonderful blessing and responsibility to be a part of a nation founded upon
Biblical principles.
Parent /Teacher Conferences were a huge success. Thank
you to our parents and teachers for taking time out of their busy schedules to
come meet with each other. Also, we want to thank the family club for once
again providing a delicious meal for our teachers and their families! Our next
conference night is scheduled for March 14; it will be for grades 4-12 only.
Last year, during our spring conference night, we discovered that our younger
elementary families stay in constant communication with their teachers and did
not need an additional conference time.
Teacher Changes: It is with mixed emotions that we say goodbye to Mr. Bobby Shane. God
opened the door for him to switch to a daytime shift at his other job. We say
congratulations, but also that we’ll miss him! Taking his place, Mr. Steve
Venable has been hired as a full-time teacher. Mr. Rusty Thomas has also been
blessed with a job change and will now teach only in the mornings. Mr. Venable
will be taking Mr. Shane’s classes in the morning and Mr. Thomas’ classes in
the afternoon. Thank you goes out to each one of them for being willing to
serve God in the ministry at ACS!
Directory Changes: As people notice changes that need to be fixed on the
directory, we are up-dating the online directory rather than reprint a new
paper one. Therefore, if you have any questions or want to see if your
information is current, please check the directory online. Thank you! If you
see things that need to be changed, please let us know in the office.
