7th grade Design and Modeling students surprised several teachers last week with a special delivery. Students used their creativity and a 3D printer to design and create personalized gifts for a teacher of their choice. We hope that these teachers know how much of an impact they are making on these students.

Ms. Dillingham's students have been working hard on passing ZEARN lessons for their October Challenge. These are the final results of the competition. So many students spent a lot of time working towards passing their lessons, and she is so proud of them for the effort they put into this challenge.

Mrs. Harper's students have read 66 books so far this year! 💪📚 The October reader of the month is Nolan, who takes home the tiny trophy and gift card! 🎉 Keep reading and logging the books you complete, and you too could be reader of the month drawing for November! 🤞

8th grade students are reading The Outsiders, so for Dress as a Character Day, Mrs. Plonski's and Mrs. Harper's students dressed as Greasers and Socs!

Thirty ACMS students had an opportunity to participate in the SCMEA Middle School clinics this past Friday. Students prepared music ahead of the clinic, then spent the day working with clinicians in voice-specific groups. The day ended with a concert, and we were very proud of Jack Gibson for being selected to sing in a small group on one of the pieces!

Bring $5 and come hungry! Chick Fil A biscuits available tomorrow morning while supplies last!

Next week is teacher Appreciation Week at ACMS! As we celebrate our amazing teachers, a few words of encouragement, a little appreciation, or a reminder that their hard work makes a difference can mean the world! Our teachers pour so much time, energy, and heart into helping our students learn and grow, and we want every teacher to feel valued and celebrated. If you’d like to participate in Teacher Appreciation Week, we encourage you to find a small way to let your child’s teacher know they matter. A little kindness goes a long way! 💌 Thank you to our families for helping us celebrate the incredible educators who make ACMS such a special place to learn and grow! 🐺 We appreciate our teachers today and every day! #ACMSWolves #TeacherAppreciationWeek
