What a pleasure to be work "shadowed" by one of our ACS graduates. As a high school
assignment, this sophomore at Bishop Ahr High School, had to find a professional with a career she is interested in researching. She decided on her  middle school language arts teacher, Mrs. Shumny. They discussed college, the advantages and disadvantages of teaching and what hard work goes along with this ever changing profession. They even uncovered that Mrs. Shumny had the same Career Development teacher 24 years ago!

Much luck to our graduate as she creates her presentation for her class.

The teachers at ACS are always planning together and sharing ideas and lessons they have created.  With the development of the new language art curriculum, they have met regularly to make sure all students in every grade level are being challenged and standards are been met. Keep up the hard work!

ACS Students enjoyed practicing their skills in the bowling alley while competing against each other.

That is the Assumption Catholic kindergarten way!
Dispute the fact that we learned a lot;
There is still many new topics to be taught!

The Perth Amboy Fire Department visited our school today in recognition of Fire Prevention Month.

In honor of Columbus Day the first grade class watched a short video in which they learned about the life of Christopher Columbus. They then pretended they were explorers like him and discovered America and created mini writing craftivity projects. They all had great ideas about what they would find!

The pre-k class has been enjoying the changing of the season and learning about leaves and how they change colors in the autumn. Today they went on a leaf hunt to collect leaves around our school, and used them to paint leaf prints.

As our science lesson we learned about the five senses and related them to the season of Fall. The students had fun coming up as a class with different ideas to compete this mini project. They are very proud of their work!

Thanks to everyone that attended our first FSA Meeting tonight. It was great to see a lot of new faces mixed in with some familiar ones. We had a lot of business to take care of and we appreciate your contribution in getting it all done! At our first meeting, Mrs. Shumny spoke about the new Language Arts program being successfully implemented at ACS. The FSA President Mr. Daly spoke about the upcoming Christmas Bazaar and many other activities sponsored by FSA this year. We look forward to seeing more parents at our future meetings and continuing our mission of providing a wonderful environment and a fun educational experience for our students!
