Spirit Night: Today, Tuesday, January 23rd. 5-8 pm.
Take a night off and let’s enjoy soup, salads, sandwiches and goodies. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to ACS!
Staff Appreciation Breakfast
Each grade will have one opportunity to host a special breakfast for our ACS Teachers and Staff in the 2017/2018 school year. The 3rd and 4th grades’ turn is Wednesday January 24, 2018. If you are in need of volunteer hours, this is a great way to get them in and do something nice for our amazing ACS staff! They REALLY enjoy and appreciate it. Any time spent shopping, preparing and bringing your item to ACS counts toward your volunteer hours, as well as 1 hour for every $10 spent on items for the event.
It is VERY important to have your donations delivered to ACS before 7:30 am to give the teachers time to eat before they begin their day. We try to have enough to feed 75 teachers/staff.
**Please be sure to use disposable serving dishes. Include any recipes you can. The teachers would love to know how to make your delicious creations!
