Congrats to our EleGator Admin Award Winner - Mrs. Clyburn!
Congratulations to our next ABCD Award Winner - Alisa Wallis. Mrs. Wallis is an assistant at our school and can be found everywhere doing ALL the things!
Here's ALL of her nominations:
Alisa is such a hard worker. She’s always willing to jump in and help when anyone needs anything. She’s fast and efficient and ACA is so lucky to have her!
Alisa is super helpful with one of our kiddos! She comes in and helps him, just knowing what he needs. She is always positive and asking if there is anything else she can do to help. We love having her come in our room.
Wallis is always willing to help others, whether it’s a child or an adult. She has a loving and kind heart and shows genuine empathy for those around her. Wallis wants everyone to succeed and consistently strives to help others achieve their goals. She is always asking where she can help out and never seems to stop giving of herself. Wallis truly doesn’t know what it means to take a break, and I sincerely appreciate all the hard work and dedication she puts in.
Mrs. Wallis is always in a good mood and is a marigold on our hall. She is fast and efficient at making copies and is always willing to step in to help. She does it all!! She is always willing to step in wherever she’s needed. Her hard work, positive attitude, and friendly presence make a meaningful difference every day. She goes above and beyond in everything she does.
Alisa Wallis goes above and beyond for not just our hallway but the school in it's entirety. If you see Alisa, you know she is getting those steps in! She does a little... (aka A LOT) of everything. When she cannot be on our hallway, she communicates that. She takes the time and effort to know students and teachers on a personal level. She opened an entire bowl of starburst one time to bring me JUST THE PINK ONES! On a serious note, she gets things done and does it with a smile. Thanks for everything you do Alisa!!
Alisa Wallis is always there to help out where she is needed. I love having morning car duty with her! She took time to make amazing Christmas cards for every grade level. She finds a way to smile through every situation!
Congratulations, Alisa - we appreciate you!

It wouldn't be December without our first graders and The Littlest Christmas Tree!🎄 Bravo!
Our ACA D5 Honor Choir members had a clinic at Byrnes today with schools from across the district and held their concert tonight. The group is made up of 4th and 5th graders.
Voices in D5 is a staff choral group that formed two years ago. The group is made of current and past staff including retirees and some that have gone on to other things but still have ties to D5. The group performs 2-3 times a year. They had their Christmas Concert tonight.
What a job well done by both groups tonight! 🎶
The Elf Shelf Holiday Store is happening this week! 🎄
Thanksgiving... here we come! 🦃
Wishing all of our Gator 🐊 Families a safe Thanksgiving Break! Our building will be closed the rest of the week. We will see you back on Monday, December 1!

The remainder of the canned foods drive donations were given to Greer Community Ministries this week! They also filled 4️⃣4️⃣ shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child! The members are truly learning how to lead with service to others. 💚💙
⏰ It's not too late to sign up for Doughnuts with Santa! 🧑🎄 Join us at ACA on Saturday, December 6th for this fun, family event. We will have a doughnut breakfast, crafts, and visits and pictures with Santa. Email Elizabeth.Koon@spart5.net with any questions!
The Student Council held a Red Ribbon Week canned food 🥫 drive in November and our students and their families were so generous in their giving!! Today, the class representatives were able to deliver the collected food to Middle Tyger Community Center, which will use it to help others in the community! ❤️ They took a tour of MTCC, visited some of the childcare classes, learned about how the MTCC serves the community, and sorted donated food.
Thank you to Abner Creek Academy PTO for spoiling our staff! 🦃
Our Student Council had their pinning ceremony this morning. Our guest speaker was Olivia Lee, a Gator Alumni and current Byrnes Student Body President. Congratulations to all and we appreciate your service to our school and community! 💙💚
