Week of May 25

Good evening,

I hope you have enjoyed the long weekend in celebration of Jordanian Independence....it was certainly a beautiful weekend!

Departing Families:
If you are leaving ACS at the end of this year, please notify our Business Office or our MS Counselor so we can begin  the process of having all of your son/daughter's documents ready for the last day.

An Invitation for Gr 8 Parents:
Dear Parents, 

We are very happy to announce the dates of your son/daughter's much-anticipated Graduation By Demonstration presentations. They will be held on May 27 and 28 from 1:30-3:00p.m. in the ACS Middle School classrooms (4th floor).

The presentations are the culmination of several months of research into the students "passion topics." Each student has prepared a speech and a multimedia presentation to demonstrate his/her knowledge of a chosen controversial issue. This work has been completed as part of the Information, Analysis, and Reporting class. We are proud of our students' efforts, and are eager for them to share their work with you. 

In order to remain flexible in accommodating changes to the presentation schedule, we ask that you confirm with your son/daughter which date he/she will be presenting, either May 27th or 28th. The times of the presentations will be the same each day. 

We look forward to seeing you!

Sincerely, 
Heidi Liedtke, Beth Marinucci and Lisa Martin
IAR Teachers

Looking ahead to next year:
At the end of this month students will have access to their schedules for next school year. We will ask students to check their schedules for accuracy and any change of schedule requests will need to be completed between June 1-June 10. Students will NOT be able to make schedule change requests when they return in August. More information will be sent towards the end of the month.
