Did you know that being tardy for school can also impact a child's daily routine and attendance? Arriving at school on time every day is important, start the day with a healthy breakfast and ready to learn.

Bus safety is so important. Please watch for school buses on the road ways. Be prepared to stop when you see the stop sign out and flashing lights on. Let's keep our students and drivers safe as they travel on the roads to and from the school. #ExcellenceIsACS

Attendance is important but sometimes there are barriers that students and families are facing. ACS is here to help families.

Mrs. Faires Hester was recognized at the TSBA Southeast Fall District meeting this evening as the recipient of the School Volunteer Award. She has served as a volunteer, PTO officer, and active family engagement member for many years. Her dedication, support, and commitment is so appreciated. Congratulations Faires on this well deserved award! #ExcellenceIsACS
