We appreciate everything you do for our school community! Thank you for your dedication, Security Steve! 🛡

Thank you to our school counselors for always supporting, and helping students find their way, academically, socially, and emotionally. We appreciate everything you do for our students at ACS!

Our hiking club braved the rain, wind, and cold for our third outing at Kanakadea Park! Nothing could stop us from getting outside and enjoying nature together. Nature doesn’t wait for perfect weather, and neither do we 😊 More hiking adventures coming soon!

This week, ACS would like to recognize and celebrate our school psychologist, Mrs. Katelynn Harrison.

Mrs. Harrison plays a vital role in supporting the well-being of our students by providing guidance, encouragement, and expertise to help them grow socially, emotionally, and academically.

Thank you, Mrs. Harrison, for being a steady source of support and care. We are so grateful for all that you do!

Our Hiking Club is officially underway, and the adventures have begun! So far, we've explored the scenic trails of Shawmut Park and Stonybrook State Park, and the kids are enjoying every minute of it.
Some of our favorite comments so far:
• “I love this so much!”
• “Going uphill is so good for you!”
It's been amazing to see the students enjoying nature, building endurance, and bonding with each other. Stay tuned for updates on our upcoming hikes - more fun and fresh air are on the way!
