ASCS Christmas Tree
Be a part of an All Saints tradition! A beautiful artificial tree was donated by the families of the Class of 2013 – since then a single ornament has been given by each family in the school to decorate it! This week will be using those ornaments once again to decorate our lobby tree. All families new to ASCS for 2018-2019 are invited to send in an ornament to represent their family on the ASCS tree. For safety, please do not send glass ornaments. Please write your family’s name on the ornament.
Advent Projects
Each of our homerooms is participating in an outreach project to help those in need as part of our observance of Advent. Teachers have sent information about the particular class project. Your generosity in helping those less fortunate is most appreciated.
Two Important Surveys
Families registered within the past three years should have received a marketing survey from the Catholic Schools Alliance. Your participation is most appreciated!
ASCS is participating in the NCEA Speak Up Survey regarding present and future use of technology. Please assist us by taking a few moments to respond. Gr 3 - 8 students will be responding to the student survey in school.
