A Note From The Principal

COVID-19 Update

We are looking forward to welcoming students back to ACS in the fall. To help ensure adequate space for students and learning our school board has temporarily capped enrollment at 22 students per homeroom (K-8). This cap positions us to meet possible social distancing mandates.

Please note that hand sanitizer has been added to the school supply lists for student use.
