Week of 24 November


Good Evening,

I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. Let me remind you that this week will bring a long weekend for you.....students do not have school on Wednesday due to teacher meetings and Thursday is a holiday.

Just a few quick notes this week:

  • Thank you to the Arabic Dept. for a wonderful celebration of our host country culture this past Wednesday. It is always nice to see so many students, from all over the world, on stage coming together to celebrate.
 
  • Below is a link to a parent letter notifying you that your son/daughter was given their MAP results to take home. Students will spend time in advisory class next week reflecting on the results to guide them into understanding themselves as learners.

  • Thanks to Ms. Marinucci's advisory class for providing our first Advisory Challenge of the year. Advisory groups were asked to create introductory videos of 2-4 mins. in length demonstrating creativity and including all advisory members in their video. It was a great collaborative effort that really encouraged students to get to know each other and develop their communication skills. Thanks again Ms. Marinucci's group.

  • Reminder----if you know you will not be returning to ACS for the second semester, please let us know so we can begin to process all the necessary documents you will need for your new locations. You can contact our registrar or Ms. Rima Fanik, MS/HS Assistant for notification.

Have a nice evening.
