Greetings ACS,
Thanksgiving will soon be here! One of our long-standing
traditions at ACS is our Thanksgiving Feast! It is a memorable day for all.
During the morning, each class takes a turn in the kitchen helping prepare a
dish for our Thanksgiving meal. They also decorate our tables, play games, and
perhaps make a craft. Then, we eagerly await the arrival of family, friends,
and alumni to begin our “feast”. We begin promptly at 11:30 with entertainment
provided by our K-4 grade students. After, we eat the meal so lovingly prepared
by our own kids. Once clean-up is accomplished, we dismiss to enjoy the
Thanksgiving holiday and celebrate the gifts God bountifully provides! We look
forward to seeing you all Wednesday, November 21.
Grade Cards: Please remember to return your grade cards to the office.
Student Council News: The Show Me Crafters service was a big hit making $297 to go towards
Christmas gifts for a family in need. Thank you to all who helped; also, I
understand they want us back in March. Dec.
1, 6 pm – Christmas party at the Clouds. It will be a taco bar. Please
refer to your email to remember what you signed up to bring. Dec. 4-- Community Café – The basketball
team and others who worked last time need not work this time. Jacqui Sims will
have details at the next meeting. SSLC
scholarship applications went out to juniors and seniors. They are due on or
before March 1.
Love and Logic Conference: January 29 – Overland Park, KS –
A conference with strategies for creating respectful, responsible, and strong
kids: A day of Love and Logic with Dr. Charles Fay. If this is a conference you
would be interested in, we have brochures in the office. As we receive
information of events I think parents may have an interest, I will pass on that
information to you – this is one of those events. It does not necessarily mean
ACS is promoting these events.
Happy Birthday to You: November 17-25
