This school year is the 50th Anniversary of ACS and there will be various activities and events to mark this amazing milestone in our school’s history. The first fun anniversary activity will begin on Thursday, October 8 — a Throwback Thursday Photo Contest — with monthly prizes for contestants who correctly identify details in the photos.  The first contest photo is posted here. Let the competition begin!

Each week from October through April, ACS will select one photo featuring ACS students and/or staff involved in an activity or event that has occurred in the past, going as far back as the first school year of 1971-1972. A new photo will be posted each Thursday on the ACS Facebook page, the ACS Stronger Together Facebook group page, and Instagram.  The photo will also be posted on a bulletin board in the Multi-Purpose Room, in the school foyer video,  and on the ACS website.  To participate, contestants must simply identify details about the photos. Earn points by identifying: 1) the year the photo was taken; 2) where the photo was taken; 3) where the photo first appeared or the occasion of the photo; 4) the names of the people in the photo. Each correct detail will earn a contestant one point.

To enter the Throwback Thursday Photo Contest, contestants will need to email their information about the photo to contest@acseht.org.  The contestant with the most points at the end of each month will win a prize.

We welcome all ACS family members, students, staff, alumni, alumni parents, and friends in the community to participate in our Throwback Thursday Photo Contest. Let’s celebrate the great memories made by the thousands of students, families, and staff who have been a part of ACS over the past 50 years.
