News From the Elementary Office
Growing Great Jets—Together!
Dear ACES Families,
Thank you for being your child’s first and best teacher. We appreciate the time, support, encouragement, and guidance you provide each day. We are grateful for your dedication and for the partnership we share as we help our children learn and grow—not only as students, but as members of our school and community.
As our fall activities get underway, we want to remind families of our expectations for elementary students attending after-school events.
Elementary students must remain seated in the stands with a supervising adult during athletic and other after-school events. Students should not be roaming the hallways, running or gathering around concession areas, or playing outside the football stadium gates. Elementary students may not be dropped off at an event without an adult present. If a student is found unattended, he or she will be directed back to the stands.
These expectations are about more than supervision and safety. Our children are still learning! They are learning how to be a Jet Fan—how to watch the game, understand what is happening, cheer for our teams, encourage others, and represent Adams Central well. They are also learning to take responsibility for our shared spaces by cleaning up after themselves when an event ends and leaving the area better than they found it. We are teaching them now so that they grow into middle school and high school students—and eventually adults—who know how to positively support and care for their school and community.
As students grow older and enter middle school, their independence and privileges naturally increase. During the elementary years, however, they still need us nearby to teach, model, and reinforce appropriate behavior.
Thank you for helping us teach these lessons and for reinforcing these expectations with your children. Your partnership matters, and we appreciate you!
Our School. Our Students. Our Responsibility.
Go Jets!
Mrs. Mary McCullough
Principal, Adams Central Elementary
