ACS will celebrate the achievements of the Class of 2020 at an outdoor commencement ceremony on the school campus on Wednesday, July 8 and will hold an 8th Grade Blessing Ceremony on Friday, July 10. Both ceremonies will begin at 10 a.m. and are ticketed events limited in capacity due to COVID-19 regulations.

“We are so thankful that we are now able to hold in-person ceremonies to recognize and honor our Class of 2020 and our 8th grade students,” said Chief School Administrator Karen Oblen. “We are looking forward to coming together with our ACS families to celebrate and give thanks to God for His faithfulness throughout this extraordinarily challenging school year.”

Seniors are receiving 4 reserved tickets for front section seating and 10 additional tickets for general seating in the parking lot in front of the school building. Eighth grade students are receiving 4 reserved front section tickets and 6 general seating tickets. Chairs will be provided for the 4 front section seats, but guests holding the general seating tickets are asked to bring their own chairs. Only those holding a ticket to the ceremonies will be able to attend, with limited attendance by ACS faculty and staff. Social distancing is expected to be followed throughout these events.

Families can pick up their allotted tickets for these ceremonies in the school office starting on Thursday, July 2. Additional important details about the ceremonies were emailed to parents and guardians by Upper School Principal Meg McHale on June 30.

Those who are unable to attend the ceremonies in person will be able to watch them online. Both ceremonies will be live streamed on the Atlantic Christian School YouTube Channel.  Please click on the links below to watch the ceremonies live on YouTube:
