📚✨ A Beautiful New Addition to ACES Library! ✨📚
We are incredibly grateful and blessed to announce that the ACES Library has received a generous donation of three gorgeous, new wooden bookshelves from the Beatty/Scott family.
These shelves hold a very special meaning for our community:
🤍 They are dedicated in memory of Mrs. Scott’s father, Terry Beatty.
🎉 They are built in honor of Ella Scott, who recently graduated from SHS! Congratulations, Ella!
A massive thank you to Fred and Lori Woodruff of Woodschott Woodworks, who lovingly handcrafted these beautiful pieces. They are absolutely perfect and have truly elevated our library space. 🪵❤️
The next time you are in the building, make sure to stop by and check them out!

Amidst the hunt for the perfect backpack, color-coordinated notebooks, and new sneakers, there’s one essential back-to-school checklist item that always deserves an early start: making sure your child is up-to-date on their school-required vaccines.
⛏️ There’s gold in them there hills… or at least at Summer Book Club!
Students teamed up with the Pony Express Prospectors to learn about the Gold Rush and experience the excitement of panning for gold. There were smiles, discoveries, and plenty of “gold fever” as everyone searched for hidden treasures.
A huge thank you to the Pony Express Prospectors for bringing history to life and giving our students a hands-on experience they won’t soon forget! 🌟
I went in for one thing. Instead, I was attacked by an aisle full of neon highlighters and 25-cent crayons. Ready or not, the back-to-school countdown has officially begun! 🏫✨

Today marks the birthday of E. B. White (1899–1985), author of beloved children’s classics like "Charlotte’s Web", "Stuart Little", and "The Trumpet of the Swan". His stories are filled with friendship and kindness, perfect for reading aloud.

Community members have expressed interest in how Amendment 5 would impact ACES. We are committed to keeping our community informed on how shifting tax structures and state-level changes could directly affect our local classrooms, per-pupil funding, and operational budget stability. Take a look at the breakdown below to see what these potential changes mean for ACES.
For our final garden club we got to sample lettuce, spinach, and radish from the garden today! Then we used our mint to make a mint lemonade tasting paired with patriotic fruit kabobs and herb buttered bread 😋
Today at Summer Book Club was a BLAST!
A huge thank you to Justin Palmer for teaching us all about fireworks safety & how to celebrate responsibly. Then came everyone’s favorite part—he launched 250 parachutes into the sky, and our students raced across the field to catch them!
🎯 **DISTRICT PRIDE:** What an incredible week for Avenue City School archery! We are thrilled to celebrate 5th grader Kolt, who recently traveled to Daytona Beach to compete against the absolute best young archers in the nation at the NASP 3D Championship Tournament!
Kolt put on a fantastic performance, capped off an amazing season, and represented with true excellence. Check out his incredible stats for the year:
🥈 **2nd Place** at State
🎯 **27th Place** at Eastern Nationals
🎯 **36th Place** at the East/West Championship
To achieve this level of success—especially as a fifth grader—is an extraordinary accomplishment that very few can claim!
We want to extend a HUGE thank you to Coach Jones and Coach Davis for their outstanding leadership and dedication in helping Kolt reach this level. Thank you to the entire Avenue City Community and the sponsors for helping support the ACES Archery Program.
The gardens are loving this rain! Cucumbers, radish, spinach, tomatoes, along with lots of herbs and milkweed. Today we made lavender soap!
📚🎲 Summer Book Club explored the fun of old-fashioned games!
Students put away the screens and discovered how much fun simple games can be. From classic favorites to games that grandparents may have played, there was plenty of laughter, and friendly competition.
Our gardeners rolled up their sleeves to weed and water the garden, helping our plants stay healthy and strong. We also learned all about ladybugs and the important role they play in keeping our gardens thriving. Hands-on learning, fresh air, and growing minds—just another great day in Garden Club!

Garden Club was busy growing knowledge today! We learned about the different parts of a flower & got their hands dirty weeding our garden area. The excitement continued as they explored and found butterfly caterpillars and eggs—an up-close look at nature’s amazing life cycle!
