Yearbook Submissions: baby picture and "About Me"

The HSA 4th Grade Chairs are busy creating this year’s yearbook, which will feature baby photos of our 4th graders and an "About Me" section. 4th Grade Class Parents will reach out to collect these photos for submission to the HSA, ensuring they're included in the yearbook.* Each student will also be asked to contribute to their "About Me" section, sharing their favorite sport or hobby, a memorable moment from ACS, and more. Stay tuned!

 

*This is not mandatory but the kids really do love being included and seeing themselves and all their classmates as babies!

4th Grade Clap Out

4th Graders walk through the halls of ACS one last time. Teachers and students of lower grades line the halls clapping their hands in honor of this milestone; saying their goodbyes one last time. Families of 4th grade students will be waiting in a designated area to receive the graduates with a final celebration.

A note on funding the celebration: the HSA will reach out to 3rd grade families to collect donations. In return, those families will be treated to a clap out celebration the following year!
