News from the Nest

Greetings ACCE family,

I am writing to inform you that Back to School Night will take place on September 21, 22, and 23 at 5:30 pm either in person or virtually. We are planning a hybrid experience which means you can come to school or log in from your home. Since we have been collecting student devices we are offering this in person experience. If you need your child’s device to access the event virtually, they can sign out a device for the evening and return it the next day. Below is a description of the event.

Dates/Times/Grades:

September 21st at 5:30 pm - grades 6, 7, and 8

September 22nd at 5:30 pm - grades 9 and 10

September 23rd at 5:30 pm - grades 11 and 12

Additional Details:

This event is for parents/guardians only. We are limiting the number of in person participants as a COVID safety measure. Students are not allowed to attend. If coming in person you will report directly to your child's first period class. You must wear a mask at all times in the school building. If accessing via zoom, come to this link at 5:30 pm: https://bit.ly/ACCEorientations

After an opening presentation by the school principal, Mr. D'Ambrosio, parents/guardians will spend the next 60 minutes visiting teachers' classes. During these visits, teachers will share information about the content of their course, contact information, and answer any questions you have about this school year.

If accessing virtually, parents/guardians will find their teacher's links on our school website and virtually visit those links for the same information. To access your child's schedule which has teacher names and room numbers, go to Infinite Campus Parent Portal.

We hope to see you in person or on-line next week during your designated day and time.

Sincerely,

Nicholas D'Ambrosio
