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.
