The ACS book fair is coming! On March 5-11, ACS will be having it's annual book fair at school. We have a new provider this year named I:55 book fairs, but we will continue to have some awesome titles to choose from. While students will have opportunities to shop during the week, the community is also invited to a book fair open house Saturday, March 5, from 9-11 am. You can also continue to shop the fair early at this website. Finally, our fair would not run as smoothly without some amazing volunteers. If you are willing to help during the fair at all, please sign up at this link. If there are questions, please email Mrs. Koning at rkoning@allendalechristian.com.

Tuition Assistance for 22-23 ACS participates in FACTS, a grant application program for our school. Completion of the FACTS application is a requirement for next year's enrollment if you are expecting a remaining balance at the end of the school year or you will be requesting tuition assistance. Families who wish to apply for tuition assistance will need to use the FACTS application format online at https://online.factsmgt.com/signin.aspx. The application information will be easily accessible data from your 2021 tax return, along with financial accounts, and will require that copies of confirming tax documents be sent to the FACTS center. The FACTS organization will analyze the information of each applicant. They will provide our school with recommended grant amounts based on need and financial status. Parents who have children in more than one of the participating schools need only to fill out the application one time- the information will be available to other Christian schools where their children attend. Applications must be submitted by March 31, 2022. The application fee will be paid by the participating schools.

MORE DATES ADDED - Volunteer Opportunity!
