Elementary Bulldog Families,

On Thursday, we had 10 students who received “Pawsitive Paws” at Morning Assembly. Each of those ten students received a ticket to the circus on Monday. Also, students received a coloring page that will get them a discount on face painting at the circus. Thank you to the circus clown for including our students in preparation for the big day! Also, a 2nd grade student won 6 reserved tickets for the winter concert! We will give away one more family set of winter concert tickets after our Title 1 Meeting & Family Game Night on September 17th. We hope to see everyone there!

Have a great weekend Bulldogs!

The Powerschool app is currently disabled for parent access. It will open again next week after student schedules are finalized. if you need help after next Tuesday, please call your building office.

Cell Phone Procedure Update: AC JH and HS Parents and Students, A new Missouri law has been passed to restrict students from using their cell phones during the school day. To follow these guidelines, ACHS has a new cell phone policy/procedure. Students that bring a cell phone into the school building will be required to lock their phone in our cell phone lockers located by the HS office during school hours. Students who are caught with a phone or a device connected to a cellular device will have it taken away and held until a parent or guardian can pick it up during school hours. Additional consequences will apply for each infraction. Students that drive may leave their phones in their vehicle during the school day. This means students will not be allowed to visit their cars during school hours without office permission. During the school day, if you need to contact your students, please contact the HS office. We appreciate your support in reinforcing this policy at home. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to the HS office.

JH athletes interested in playing volleyball this year, practice will start on Tuesday, August 19th from 5:30 to 7 pm in the HS gym. All players will need an up to date physical in order to practice.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at Open House tomorrow evening from 5:00-7:00 pm. We will be serving hot dogs, chips, cookies, and a drink to everyone who attends. See you soon!

A HUGE THANK YOU to Dirks Heavy Contractors in Bulter for their generous donation of over 30 backpacks and school supplies. Thank you for your support of our school and our students! It is much appreciated!
