ACMS Parent Reminder – Sporting Events

Parents, just a reminder and a word of caution:
A responsible adult must attend all sporting events with their middle school student. While our staff and event workers do their best to keep watch over students, we cannot be everywhere or control everyone’s attitudes, behaviors, or actions.

We have a football game tonight against a county rival, and we want it to be a fun, safe, and positive experience for everyone. Your support in supervising your child helps ensure that our games remain family-friendly and enjoyable for all.

Thank you for partnering with us to keep our students safe and represent ACMS with pride!

ACMS Character Trait of the Month: Self-Direction
https://youtu.be/noXBp1WWBwE

This month’s focus is on Learning to Be Self-Directed. Developing this skill empowers students to take ownership of their learning, manage their responsibilities, and grow in confidence.

We are excited that our middle school and high school students are working together to create a monthly video highlighting this trait. This collaboration is a wonderful example of how our students are:

✨ Learning Together
✨ Leading Responsibly
✨ Building Excellence

We can’t wait to see their creativity and leadership shine!

A Super Proud Principal Message!
What an incredible Homecoming Week it has been at ACMS! I could not be more proud of our students, staff, and families. The energy, school spirit, and positive attitudes have filled our hallways and classrooms all week long.

What makes me the proudest is the balance I’ve seen—our students have celebrated and had fun while continuing to stay focused on their learning, and our staff has gone above and beyond to make sure the excitement of Homecoming was matched with strong teaching and meaningful learning opportunities. That balance is what makes ACMS so special!

To our parents—thank you for your continued support and encouragement. To our students—thank you for representing our school with pride, respect, and excellence. And to our staff—you are simply the best, and your dedication shines through in every way.

Homecoming Week has been a true example of what it means to Learn Together, Lead Responsibly, and Build Excellence!

— Proud to be your Principal

It’s official—ACMS is a B-Rated school for the 24–25 school year. While we didn’t hit the “A” again this year, we are proud of the A+ work our teachers and students put in daily!

At ACMS, we remain data-driven and relationship-centered—and we’re striving to bring back the “A” in 25–26. Together, we’ll keep showing that ACMS Pride in everything we do!

ACMS!

In my six years at ACMS, this has been one of the most enjoyable Homecoming Weeks! Our students have embraced the festivities while also transitioning back into learning mode. With just a couple of days left in Homecoming and exams coming up next week, it’s very important that we finish strong.

At ACMS, we believe we can celebrate, have fun, and still stay focused on our mission to Learn Together, Lead Responsibly, and Build Excellence. Let’s carry that spirit into the days ahead!

ACMS Families,

We have a change of plans for Wednesday’s Disney Dress Day! Students may dress in a Character Onesie; however, Pajama Onesies are not permitted.

Several students and parents respectfully reached out and made their case, and even an old dog like me can learn new things! We value listening to our community, and this is a wonderful example of how the ACMS staff, students, and families Learn Together, Lead Responsibly, and Build Excellence!

Thank you for your continued support and school spirit!

ACMS!
We’re entering an exciting couple of weeks with Homecoming celebrations and the upcoming Benchmarks & Nine Weeks Tests. While the energy of Homecoming brings fun and school spirit, it’s also important to keep our focus on academics.

Please encourage your child to enjoy the activities while also preparing well for their tests. A good night’s rest, staying organized, and setting aside study time will make a big difference.

At ACMS, we believe in Learning Together, Leading Responsibly, and Building Excellence. Thank you for partnering with us to help your student shine both in the classroom and in all the exciting events ahead.
