K-Kids is so thankful for the support they receive for the club and projects from ACIS admin, Ms. Hardaway and Mr Armstrong. We also appreciate Mr. Ray Grant who lets all the students in each month for their meeting and ensures we safely cross the road to get to TerraBella.



ACIS was transformed to the 1950’s by our amazing PTO for a fabulous Sock Hop. Students enjoyed limbo, hula hoop, cake walk, tattoo parlor, pictures, and best of all Coke Floats. Thank You ACIS PTO for giving our students a great time to have some fun with their friends.
