December Board of Education Meeting in a Nutshell
Here is a short summary of the December Board of Education meeting. The official minutes of the December meeting will not be available until they are approved at the January meeting.
Open House Brings Out Sophomores & Parents
ACWHCC is a "school of choice" and the annual Open House brought many sophomores and their parents/guardians to the school for the opportunity to visit progams and speak directly with teachers. The Open House always follows sophomore visitation which occurred during the school day on Dec. 6 & 7. On those days, students from all five home schools visited their top three areas of interest at the school. The evening Open House allowed students to bring their parents to get a feel for the school, the programming their students might encounter, and the advantages they will enjoy if they enroll at ACWHCC for their junior and senior years.
