ACS students and staff are looking forward to Spirit Week next week — February 4-8 — and our Athletic Department has planned a number of fun activities for each day (see list below). Our middle school and high school basketball teams will be playing both home and away games Monday through Thursday next week. ACS and other schools in the Tri-State Christian Athletic Conference are combining their efforts to support cancer research with a “Coaches Vs. Cancer” campaign. Donations and gate fees collected next week at our home games will be donated to the TSCAC campaign. The week will conclude with our Buffalo Wild Wings fundraiser to support ACS Athletics at the restaurant in Mays Landing. Here’s the lineup of activities planned for Spirit Week:
