Week of January 5

Good Evening,

Welcome back from your holiday. I hope everyone had a nice time spent with family/friends. I will say it has certainly been lonely around school without students....it seems like forever since we have seen them!

Tomorrow classes will begin. 
It will be a Day 4
Bus Riders....it is a week 1 pick up schedule

There has been an incredible amount of clean up work completed on campus leftover from the snowfall. In addition, the outdoor bleachers have been installed, an additional enclosure for outdoor eating, and a redesign of computer labs, just to name a few. It was not a restful break for a support staff as they worked hard to have everything ready for tomorrow. We are fortunate to have such a dedicated support staff who care about ACS so much. A big THANK YOU to them for all of their hard work.

Student Council will be making decisions about rescheduling their Spirit Week...information will be forthcoming once they have finished their conversations. 

JV Basketball Tryouts will take place this week. Contact Mr. Tate (ttate@acsamman.edu.jo) for additional information or go to the athletics/activities website @Athletics/Activities Website

A big CONGRATULATIONS to our own ACS MS Teacher, Ms. Hall. She has been accepted as a presenter at the Spring NESA Teacher's Conference in Bangkok. The NESA Conference is a meeting of all international school teachers and administrators to share their ideas on their art of teaching and ways to promote student learning. It is an honor to be accepted as a presenter from the many applications NESA receives each year. When you see her, please congratulate her for this accomplishment.
