This Tuesday, May 7th will be our final Zaxby's Night of the year. There is no grade-level competition this month, so there's no more for you to do besides join us at Zaxby's in Graham for dinner!

Thank you all for your support of our dinner fundraisers and grade-level competitions, earning us $2,500 so far this year!

We are so excited to celebrate our outstanding Coyote teachers! Gifts and goodies can be labeled and dropped off at the front office, or sent in with students to be given to their teachers directly.

The Book Fair and Family Night were both an incredible success! We will have our final numbers soon! Huge thanks to our vendors, community members, faculty, and MANY volunteers who came together to make this terrific week of events and Bookjoy possible. What do you say, Coyotes...same time next year?

It's Book Fair week! A few notes...
Student Hours will be Monday-Friday during the regular school day. Each class has been scheduled to visit two times with their teachers. We invite family and friends to join us during Family Hours: Thursday, April 11th from 7:15-8:15am and Friday, April 12th from 4:00-7:00.
If you are available, we still need volunteers at the Book Fair and Family Night event.
To see when your students are scheduled, you can visit the Book Fair SignUp Genius linked above. Teachers scheduled during each time slot are listed in the "location" column.
We look forward to seeing everyone there!
This week is also our last Zaxby's Competition of the year! On Tuesday, April 9th it will be the battle of the Kindergarten classes! Who will earn their whole class a catered Zaxby's lunch this month? As always, ACS PTO receives 10% of all purchases made between 5:00-8:00pm, so there is nothing more for you to do if you are just joining us for the dinner fundraiser. However, if your student is in Kindergarten, make sure to pop in and drop their name into their teacher's cup!

Big kudos to the Hospitality Committee and donors for another delicious faculty and staff luncheon last week, during which our hardworking educators were treated to subs and other fresh deli goodies.
We will continue to celebrate our staff after Spring Break on Wednesday, April 3rd for Paraprofessional Appreciation Day! Our Instructional Assistants and Long-Term Subs are an incredible group of people who support the school in countless ways. If you would like to donate any special treats for our Coyote Paraprofessionals, you can leave them labelled in the front office.

Big thanks to all who came out for our December Zaxby's Night last week, earning the PTO $320 in the process!
Without a competition to determine the Zaxby's catered lunch winner, we elected to use this month's lunch to treat our incredible Specials Team. Now that we are finally gearing up to move into the new building, we wanted to celebrate the patience and flexibility of our Specials teachers during this extended transition period as they've given up their classrooms, taught from carts, and maintained so much positivity and fun in their lessons. Thank you, Specials Teachers!

The ACS Food Pantry provides individually wrapped, single serving fruit cups, granola bars, muffins, crackers, pasta cups, nuts, and more for teachers to pass out to students who may need breakfast or a snack during the school day. They also identify ACS families in need of assistance, and send home complete meals, canned goods, pantry essentials, breakfasts, lunch items, and toiletries each week.
To participate in the Coyotes Care Drive, send your children to school any day this week (September 18-22) with bagged items to turn in to their teacher in the morning. Any donations of shelf-stable foods or hygiene products are greatly appreciated! Thank you for helping us stock the pantry!

This month's Zaxby's Night will also be our first grade-level competition! We invite Coyotes in all grades to come out for the dinner fundraiser, but the competition will be between the SIXTH GRADE classes! To participate: Get your order however you'd like, then come inside of the restaurant to pick up a blank slip of paper from the competition table. Write your sixth grader's name on the slip, drop the slip into the corresponding teacher's cup, and the PTO will take care of the rest! The winning class will earn themselves and their teacher a catered lunch from Zaxby's delivered right to the school. Who will have a higher turn out, Ms. Herman or Ms. Mayle? Don't worry, every grade will have their chance to compete! Good luck to both classes!
