For all 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders!

We can't let next week's Assistant Principal Week go by without saying 💙 THANK YOU 💚 to Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Austin for all you do at ACA! And for that we are giving you next week off! 😂 We have enjoyed celebrating you both this week!

Mrs. Blackwell and Mrs. Grube’s 1st grade classes worked on an activity in library with Miss Koon. Students learned about biographies and created trading cards on the person of their choice. Their classes got together and traded cards in order to learn facts about famous people.
