TALENT SHOW
The Class of 2008 is sponsoring a Talent Show this Saturday, March 1st, at 6:30 p.m. All ACA students are welcome to be in the Talent Show. Registration is $3 per act and registration forms are available in the office. Plan now to attend the Talent Show and vote for your favorite act! You won’t want to miss it! First come, first serve seating so you will want to arrive early for the best seats. Admission is $5 for adults and $3 for students.
FINAL FRIDAY SPIRIT WEAR
This Friday, February 29th, is the final Friday in February and is a Spirit Wear day for the entire school. No coupon is necessary.
OPEN HOUSE DATES
Help us 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. You can also download an Open House flyer here. Word of mouth advertising is the best advertising, but we need your help to do it! We have more Open House times scheduled: March 3 & 5.
CHARGER ON-LINE
In an effort to save on the cost of paper and copies, the Charger will no longer be handed out to each student beginning the week after Spring Break. It will be posted on the ACA web site each Wednesday afternoon. A limited number of paper copies will be available in the school office each week if you prefer a hard copy. An e-mail, with a link to the Charger, will be sent each week. If you are not on our e-mail list, you can send your e-mail address to: office@acatulsa.org to be added. You can also subscibe to the RSS newsfeed at our web site and stay updated that way.
LUNCH ORDERS
March lunch order forms are due tomorrow, Feb. 28, if you are ordering for the month.
THANK YOU
Thank you to Mr. Doy “Grandpa” Raines for spending a day at ACA replacing light bulbs and fixing toilets. Thank you also to Mr. Gary Conroy for providing and installing a hold music system for our telephones and repairing our tetherball pole. We so appreciate these men helping us in these areas!

NATIONAL LATIN EXAM
All secondary Latin students at ACA will participate in the National Latin Exam on Tuesday, March 11 beginning at 8:00 a.m. This exam is given to secondary Latin students across the country. Students performing well receive award certificates and ribbons.
MUSIC MAN COSTUMES
Calling all costume helpers: 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.
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 the great sport of fencing! Call Mr. Post for more information about this opportunity.
NEW FUNDRAISING PROGRAM
ACA is joining the Tyson Project A+ program. When you purchase Tyson food products, look for their Project A+ labels to clip and bring to ACA. Every family can help with our on-going fundraisers by just clipping your Campbells labels, Box Tops for Education, and now your Tyson labels; and bringing them to ACA!
