The PTSA is excited to support and show our love to the school's teachers and administration again this year by feeding them breakfast on LTM Days. While the kids get to come in late on these days, the staff is there bright and early, meeting as a group to discuss plans and programs to better our kids. This is a great opportunity to engage one on one with the faculty and share the love. We need your help! We invite parents to volunteer by either donating food items or time to set up the breakfast or both. We need about 10 people at the most to help set up. LTM dates for the 2015-2016 school year are:
Set up begins at 6:45 am Suggested food and beverage items:
Provided by the School are: Platters, plates, napkins and utensils and coffee Thank you so much for your support of ACHS and the PTSA!! Go Eagles!
