The weather may not be able to make up its mind lately—one day it’s sunshine, the next it’s chilly and gray—but here at ACES, we’ve already made up ours… we’re here to learn!
Rain, shine, or a little bit of both—we’re making every moment count!

Taking it back to the 1984–1985 school year at ACES! 🍎✨
In Prek, there’s nothing quite like the smell of fresh Play-Doh and the sound of a cassette tape clicking into the player for circle time. Whether we were playing with Little People, rocking our best Velcro sneakers, or trying to master recess, ACES was the place to be.

"Pre-K is bringing stories to life! After reading The Little Red Hen together, we turned our classroom into a bakery with some very special friends.
🚒✨ We learned the power of teamwork, just like the hen taught us. When they asked, 'Not I!' didn't slow us down! 🌾❤️ We ground the wheat, mixed the dough, and watched it rise.
The best part? Tasting the warm, fresh bread we all made together. A huge thank you to our local heroes for making reading so delicious!

Our 4th and 5th Grade Book Club did an incredible job hosting an all-school Book Swap, and what a success it was! From the youngest readers to our oldest students, everyone had the chance to discover a “new-to-them” book and share the joy of reading.
Tables were filled, smiles were everywhere, and the excitement of finding that just right book was contagious. 💛
A big shoutout to our Book Club members for their leadership, organization, and love of literacy—you made this event something special for our entire school community!
Because at ACES… readers are leaders. 📖✨
