Friday, September 27, there is no school for students and teachers will be setting up meetings with individual families who may require a more formal meeting with the family and the student. Please know that if you have any questions about your child’s academic achievement or have any questions or concerns, your child’s teacher is the first person to connect with.  All teacher’s emails can be found on the Acadia School website Our Staff page.

Grade 6 Needs your Help!

Each year the grade 6’s go to camp and have amazing experiences. For some students, this is their first time at camp or even sleeping away from home! Grade 6’s also help offset the cost through various fundraisers all year long. Their first fundraiser is a used book sale! If you have any books you would like to donate, children or adult books, please send them to school by September 25 to be included in the book sale.
