We’re so excited to welcome you to a new school year at ACS! Whether you're joining us for the first time or continuing your journey in Lower School, we’re grateful to have you as part of our community. These early years are such a formative and meaningful time in a child’s life (academically, socially, and spiritually) and we count it a privilege to walk alongside your family in this season of growth and discovery.
At ACS, we are committed to creating a Christ-centered environment where students are encouraged to pursue excellence, build strong relationships, and develop godly character. This Lower School Handbook is designed to help you understand the expectations, resources, and opportunities available as part of our school family. It outlines important standards for both academic routines and personal behavior, and we ask that you take the time to read through it carefully.
I’m incredibly grateful for our amazing team of teachers and staff, who work each day to ensure your child feels safe, loved, and supported as they learn and grow. Their commitment to each student’s success—spiritually, emotionally, and academically is at the heart of everything we do.
Please use this handbook as a helpful reference throughout the year. If you have any questions or need further clarification, I’m always here to support you.
Here’s to a wonderful year ahead full of growth, joy, and purpose.
We’re so thankful to have your family at ACS!
Mrs. Jessica Bolin
Director of Lower School Education
