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!

See You at the Pole (SYATP) will be held Wednesday morning at 7:30 in the gym. Our student leaders have taken the lead in planning this special time together.

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!

Let’s keep the spirit strong and make this Homecoming Week unforgettable!

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.

We’ve made it through a busy and sometimes stressful week together. Thank you, teachers, for your steady commitment to guiding our students, and thank you, parents, for your support and encouragement at home.
As we head into the weekend, let’s take time to rest, recharge, and celebrate the progress we’ve made. Together we are Learning, Leading, and Building Excellence—one day at a time.
💜💛 “Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.” — Robert Collier 💛💜

ACMS Thursday – Patriots Day
Patriots Day is a remembrance day for many reasons, and we want to show our respect by wearing our best and brightest Red, White, and Blue outfits (Dress Code Applies).
🧢 Students will be allowed to wear caps in the hallways. Please remind your child to remove their cap respectfully if asked while in the classroom.
🎭 Our 8th graders will attend the Central Stage performance of “Tragedy to Triumph” at 1:45. If you would like to send a small donation to support future drama presentations and upgrades, we will collect those before leaving for the show.
For me personally, Patriots Day is a special remembrance. It always brings back memories of watching the events unfold when I was a teacher and coach here at Alcorn Central High/Middle School.
💛 Thank you for helping us honor this important day at ACMS. 💜
Don't forget to turn in your ACHS 2025 Homecoming t-shirt order forms and money to the school office or Mrs. Davis in the high school by tomorrow. The cost is $25.
