Catholic Schools Week 2012

This past week ACS celebrated Catholic Schools Week. All week long the students, their families and the staff participated in activities that celebrated this year's theme: faith, academics and service. Check out summaries and pictures of the 3rd Grade celebrating throughout the week!
Catholic Schools Week 2012

We kicked off the week by celebrating our Catholic faith on Sunday at the All School Liturgy at St. Philip Benizi! Many students and families joined the rest of the Parish in celebrating Christ's teachings.

On Monday, the 3rd Grade joined in celebrating school spirit! The entire school wore the colors of the rainbow. The 3rd grade's color was blue.

On Tuesday, the 3rd Grade, along with their 8th grade buddies, celebrated service! We traveled to Terrace View Nursing Home in Fullerton to spend time and minister to the residents. We had an amazing time playing bingo and other games, reading, coloring, and painting the nails of some residents. Many students can't wait to return to spend more time with the residents.



On Wednesday, ACS students celebrated their teachers. Throughout the day, there were special events, like a delicious breakfast, for the teachers!

On Thursday, ACS celebrated the students. Throughout the day there were special activities in and outside of class! The students got a special treat at lunch of Dippin' Dots and an extended recess! Many 3rd graders wished everyday could be like Student Day!

On Friday, ACS students, their families and staff came together to celebrate families with an old fashioned picnic on the main lawn. Everyone had such a fabulous time spending time together while eating their picnic lunches.
