AE Weekly Newsletter

We will be celebrating Random Acts of Kindness Week, starting on Tuesday! Check out the dress themes for each day. Please also encourage your child to participate in the acts of kindness posted in their hallway to help make our school and community a better place!

We will be celebrating the 100th Day of School on Tuesday, 2/17. There will be several fun activities we will engage in school-wide. Prizes (organic fruit snacks - pictured below) will be available to students who win certain activities. If you would prefer that your child not have this treat, please reach out to their homeroom teacher, and another prize will be arranged if necessary.

If you're interested in volunteering to attend and help with the annual trip to JA BizTown, please reach out to Mrs. Wasilewski at bwasilewski@acschools.org.

Congratulations to the following students who earned awards during the second marking period! If you would like a certificate noting your child's honor, please reach out to Mrs. Slabach (aslabach@acschools.org) in the main office.

These students earned all A's during the second marking period.

These students earned all A's and B's during the second marking period.

These students have shown that they are models at following the Dutchmen Way and being respectful, responsible, or ready to learn in our school.

Wednesday, 2/18/26, the school cafeteria is sponsoring Willy Wonka Day!

On this day, each student who purchases a school lunch will be given a golden ticket! These tickets will be entered into a drawing, and the winning ticket from each grade level will win a chocolate factory prize.

Chocolate Factory Menu:

Regular: Wonka’s whimsical walking taco

Hot Alternate: Chicken Patty

Cold Alternate: Parfaits

Sandwich: Turkey & Cheese Sub, Rainbow Candy Apple, and Wonka Chocolate pudding cup

On May 22nd, our 6th graders will be heading out into the community for our inaugural Day of Service. As a capstone to our "Dutchman Way" curriculum, students will be putting lessons on empathy and civic responsibility into action at various local sites.

Do you lead a local business, non-profit, or organization that could use a helping hand? We are looking for a few more service locations! We will provide a group of enthusiastic students and a staff supervisor from 12:15 PM to 2:15 PM to help you clean, organize, or tackle a project on your to-do list. If you are interested in hosting a group of students and building a community connection, please reach out to Alexandra Rudershausen at arudershausen@acschools.org.

Annville Youth League Track & Field Registration is open:

Annville Youth League | Track & Field

The program is open to all students in Kindergarten - 6th grade.

Please make sure that while you're waiting for your child's dismissal, you do not park in front of or block any streets, alleys, or driveways along Marshall Street. This is especially important for the driveway leading to the school's back parking lot, which is used as a drop-off and pick-up location for some district transportation.

On Sunday, March 1 at 3pm, the PTO is sponsoring a showing of The Super Mario Bros movie at The Allen theater. Popcorn will be provided for students in attendance. Please RSVP with the number of people attending from each family as space is limited. This is not a drop-off event, students need to be accompanied by an adult.
