Students from each of the four QACPS middle school band programs recently showcased their musical prowess in rigorous auditions, competing against peers from across the Eastern Shore of Maryland for limited positions in this esteemed ensemble.

At the recent Maryland Association for Environmental and Outdoor Education Annual Conference, educators from across the state converged to share best practices and innovative strategies aimed at advancing Maryland’s environmental literacy initiatives within the QACPS system.

QACHS is proud to announce a groundbreaking achievement by its students in the newly introduced Outdoor Adventure course. With the overwhelming support of their teacher, Mrs. Holly Woodward, and our community partners, the students have not only embraced the challenges of outdoor activities but have also excelled in achieving their Maryland boating safety certification.

A HUGE thank you to Pastor Farnell and the parishioners of Kent Island Methodist Church for their generous donation of $10,000.00!! This donation will be used to pay off outstanding student lunch debts throughout Queen Anne's County Public Schools. So many families will benefit greatly from this generous gift.
