💚 The 2026-2027 Abner Creek Academy Gators! 💙

A huge thanks to our new business partner Keenfinity Group for a generous donation of school supplies for students! 💙💚

Save the date! We are one week away from the start of school. Meet the Teacher will be Tuesday, August 4th, from 3:00-5:30. 🗓️
Please make sure you take care of the following BEFORE attending Meet the Teacher. 🍎
1)Complete InfoSnap (returning students only) and update a current proof of residence. 🏠 Failure to do so ahead of time can cause major delays and disruptions to your Meet the Teacher visit.
2) If your child will ride a bus 🚌 they need to be registered now. It takes days to route students and if you wait until Meet the Teacher it is very likely your child isn't routed in time for the start of school. You can check to ensure your child is registered by going to spart5.net, departments, and selecting transportation. Get the MyRide12 app (you will want this during the year anyway) and see if your child is registered and make sure all of the info is correct. If it is - you are all set. If not, fill out the registration link found on the same page. To get the app you will need your child's 5 digit ID number. This is your child's lunch # they may know-the number can also be found in Parent Portal or on a copy of your child's report card that was emailed to you last May.
We are so excited to have our Gators 🐊 return next week! Please ensure your InfoSnap, Proof of Residence, and bus registration (if applicable) is complete before Meet the Teacher to maximize your time visiting the classroom. See you Tuesday afternoon!

🌞 Summer is wrapping up, but there is still time to add books to your Summer Reading Challenge! 📚 Summer reading challenges will be due to Miss Koon by August 19th.

Our Gator 🐊 Staff was welcomed this morning by Abner Creek Academy PTO with breakfast from Eggs Up Grill (Moore) for our opening meeting!

Ms. Kirby went to the Crayola Experience in Orlando. 🖍️ She was able to make her own crayon label, paint with melted wax from crayons, and create an artwork using melted crayons and a spinning table.
