Hello ACE families,

Thanksgiving is just around the corner! You will notice on the HLAs this week that teachers have adjusted the workload to allow students additional time for family activities during the upcoming holiday. Also, due to the Thanksgiving holiday, there will be no 4th Week Homework Club next Tuesday. Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello ACE families,

As a reminder, school will be closed on Tuesday, November 11 for Veterans Day. Students will not need to complete the in-class work from Tuesday. Instead, please use the day to do regular HLAs or complete missing work.

Hello ACE families,

I hope you had a nice break week and are ready for Week 7. Can you believe it- We are already halfway through the fall term!

Hello ACE families,

We are going into the third week of the ACE cycle and heading into break week/off campus week. Break week will include 4th Week Homework Club. If you need some help getting caught up on assignments this month, 4th Week Homework Club is an excellent time to get teacher support and wrap up some late work. Grammar C-Dialectic 4 students have Homework Club from 9 a.m. – 12 noon. Rhetoric students have Homework Club from 9 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. (Rh-bring a lunch). Check with your ADs if you have questions.

Hello ACE families,


We are in the middle of the 3-week cycle. I trust you are finding a rhythm and schedule that is working well for your family. Are you getting the hang of the QR codes and audio files? Keep me posted!

Hello ACE families,

I hope you are off to a great start this week after a refreshing and relaxing break week! You may have gotten your work done the first week or you may be wrapping up some assignments today. Whichever way you decided to go, good job for completing tasks and starting out Week 4 on top of things! The beauty of ACE is the built-in flexibility you have when deciding each week when to get the work done based on your unique schedule!

It takes a while to get a system together when doing school at home with your kiddos. Give yourself time to figure it out and let us know if we can help!

Hello ACE families,


It’s officially Break Week/4th Week! This means there are no classes or newly assigned HLAs this week. Instead, you have two weeks to complete the Week 3 assignments, to catch up on missing work from Weeks 1 & 2, and to take a little breather.

Hello ACE families,

Hurrah! We made it through the construction last week and we are going into the 3rd week of the continuous 3-week cycle that ACE follows. After classes are over on Thursday, you will have officially begun the “break” week, also known as Off Campus/4th Week (no regular school!). This is the blessing of year round school- built in breaks throughout the year!

Hello ACE families,

How was your first week? Did everything go smoothly or did you experience some road bumps during the week? Remember, while you are getting your footing, the most important subjects to tackle every week will be math and language arts as these are foundational to the rest of the subjects.

Hello ACE families,

Tomorrow begins Week 1 of school!! If you didn’t turn in your assigned Summer HLA booklets yet, make sure you bring those to your teachers on Tuesday to ensure you earn the Barnes & Noble rewards and to avoid having Homework Club on Thursday.
