THIRD QUARTER STRETCH
Third Quarter Stretch is this Friday and Monday, February 15 & 18. There is no school on these two days.
YEARBOOKS & DOUGHNUTS
Our yearbook staff has an offer for you that is hard to pass up! Our students can sell Krispy Kreme Kards and earn a FREE yearbook! Sign up with Mrs. Brewer in the computer lab! To advertise your business in the ACA yearbook, contact Mrs. Brewer at 636-8770 or call the school office at 832-4600.
FENCING SCHOLARSHIPS
Due to the generosity of one of our patrons, there are two 50% fencing scholarships available for each House. This is a great opportunity for eight of our students to get involved in a great sport! Call Mr. Post for more information about this opportunity.
FAMILY FUN NIGHT
Thank you to everyone who helped with and attended the Family Fun Night on Monday, February 11th. There were a number of families participating in the various games that evening. To see pictures from Family Fun Night, click here.
OPEN HOUSE DATES
We need your help to spread the word about Augustine Christian Academy. Open House flyers are available in the school office if you would hand them out at your church, daycare, or place of employment. Word of mouth advertising is the best advertising, but we need your help to do it! We have four more Open House times scheduled: February 20 & 24 and March 3 & 5.
MUSIC MAN COSTUMES
Calling all costume helpers: Starting Tuesday, February 19, we will be working on costumes for “The Music Man” during rehearsals from 3:00 to 6:00 each Tuesday and Thursday. There are 49 students in the cast with several having costume changes. A lot of costumes will need to be “made from scratch” for this musical in addition to the costumes from our “closet” that will need alterations. There are also a lot of gluing projects this time (for those who don’t sew.) If your student is in “The Music Man” we would love to have your help! If you can’t come on Tuesdays and Thursdays, there are some things you could work on at home. Call Mrs. Geppelt at 482-2702 or 808-3490 to volunteer.
THANK YOU
Thank you to Mrs. Roderick for sorting through all the books from our library for us! This was a huge job and we really appreciate your willingness to tackle it. Thank you to Phat Nguyen for his gift to ACA. You can see the beautiful wall hangings from Vietnam in the school foyer. Thank you to the Partners in Prayer group for providing the Valentine Tea for the ACA staff. Everything was delicious and we really appreciate it!
NEW FUNDRAISING PROGRAM
We already collect Campbells labels, and Box Tops for Education and now we are joining the Tyson Project A+ program. When you purchase Tyson food products, look for their Project A+ labels to clip and bring to ACA. For more information about the Tyson program, click here. For information about bonus Box Tops for Education, please go to the Box Tops web site. Every family can help with these on-going fundraisers by just clipping the correct label and bringing them to the school office!
