Greetings ACS,
We’d like to say thank you to the ACS Family Club! They
work hard each year to raise funds for our student body. Recently, we lost both
microwaves in the CEL building for our elementary students. The Family Club
quickly came to our rescue and purchased two new ones! They are also compiling
a “wish list” from our teachers to see how they can improve our classroom
settings. Thank you for all you do!!
Our annual Carnival is tomorrow! The Student Council has
been working very hard to get things ready for a wonderful fundraiser event! The theme this year is western and we
encourage everyone to come dressed in costume. All who dress up in western duds
will receive free game tickets! Please
invite your friends, family, and neighbors to join us!
