Our staff presented the workers of our new staff entrance with some Valentines goodies - all spearheaded by Miss Bessie! ❤️



‼️Don't forget‼️
Wednesday, February 11, is a scheduled early release day for students. Staff will be in training the rest of the school day. There will be no Wolf Pack, ACA Afterschool or K4/PCD classes. We will dismiss at 11:30.

They are making great progress on our teacher entrance! Earlier we shared that there would be a time in the construction process that we would need to close the sidewalk in the bus loop. We have reached that phase! Starting this Wednesday, February 11th, the sidewalk will be closed to all walkers. Please do not attempt to walk your child to school until we receive word that it is safe to resume this practice. Walkers should be car riders through the front car line while the sidewalk is closed. Please make sure you have car tags for anyone that will be picking up your child. If you do not have them, please bring in a picture ID today to get some from the front office. The sidewalk closure will NOT affect our bus riders. All bus routes will continue as usual. Thank you for your patience and understanding. 🚧

When you drop everything and run outside to see the snowflakes!! ❄️

Abner Creek Middle 🐺 S.A.L.T (Student Athlete Leadership Team) visits ACA Friday mornings. You might see them helping in carline 🚘 , but they also take time to mentor students. Students 🐊 enjoy playing games, coloring 🖍️, and building with Legos together. It’s such a fun way to kick off Friday mornings! 💙💚




Barnhill's students are learning to sign the days of the week. 💚

Mrs Grube’s class has started their new unit of study in science on light. 💡 They conducted an experiment to determine what would happen when an object blocks light. This unit of study will be integrated into their academic showcase they share with parents in February.


Congrats to our EleGator Admin Award Winner - Mrs. Clyburn!
