The past couple of weeks at FCA, students have enjoyed messages from Pastor Andrew Bryan from Grace Church and Pastor Derek Henderson from His Vineyard. We want to send a special shoutout to Pastor Alex Gore and Rocky Creek Baptist Church for bringing the Word this week and treating our FCA students to doughnuts. We welcome all students to attend the last three weeks of FCA. We meet in the band room on Thursday mornings at 7:30 am.

As we get closer to the end of the school year, please take note of our summer hours. It will be here before we know it! ☀️
Yesterday our faculty and staff enjoyed some time after school getting to know our newest members of the pack! We are looking forward to growing as a school in August, and we can't wait to see what the future holds for ACMS! 🐺
Let's get to know Susan McAbee-Plonski!
She lives in Moore with her husband, cats, and honeybees. She enjoys traveling to the mountains and tropical locations and going to concerts. At home, she likes to spend her time hiking in the woods, gardening, and cooking. She is a huge fan of SC women's basketball. Go Gamecocks! She graduated from Boiling Springs High School, USC-Upstate, and Converse.
What inspired her to become a teacher?
She was inspired to become a teacher by the teachers she had as a student. Her English teachers especially helped her realize her passion for reading and stories. She hopes to inspire her students to discover their passions.
What is one interesting fact about her?
She is a beekeeper. She started her first hive a year ago and is excited to expand her apiary and harvest honey this summer.
What is she most excited about next year?
She is excited to teach in her community. She started her career as a student-teacher at D.R. Hill Middle School in 2003, and she has spent the last 22 years in Spartanburg 7. She feels great to come back home to District 5 after all these years.
Happy School Principal's Day!
Today, we celebrate our incredible principal, Mr. Dean! His leadership, dedication, and passion for education inspire us every day. Thank you for creating a nurturing environment where students can thrive and teachers feel supported.
Your vision and commitment make our brand-new school a wonderful place to learn and grow. We appreciate everything you do as the leader of our pack!
