The Annunciation fourth graders brainstormed odd jobs they could do at home or for neighbors, relatives, and family friends, then did those jobs and earned money. They brought the money to school and the parents drove them on a field trip to Target where they purchased household supplies. Their purchases will be donated through Catholic Charities to local families in need, many of whom are refugees who have recently arrived in the area as well as some homeless families.
The WCEA visitation team spent 3 days at ACS. They spent 3 days observing classrooms, interviewing teachers, students and parents. They looked over documents, lesson plans, student work and student data.
