Event Coordinator Christian Delacruz visited classrooms over the past two weeks, presenting dozens of students with green-and-white Race Sponsor Sneakers, given to those who have raised $50 or more from a sponsor. To date, ACS has received over $37,000 in Race donations and we are very grateful for the support. Due to inclement weather, the Race for Education has been rescheduled to Monday, November 1.

The Sponsor Sneakers are also on display on a bulletin board in the Multi-Purpose Room hallway. There is still room for more sneakers — so we encourage family, friends and area businesses to be a Race sponsor and help us reach or exceed our goal of $40,000. All proceeds will go into the ACS Annual Fund to support our educational programs in this school year.

Giving to the Race for Education is easy — just go to our Race website — www.race4ed.com/aceht or CLICK HERE.

Donors who make a gift of $200 will be recognized as a “Classroom Sponsor” and those give $400 will be designated as an “Event Sponsor.” Individual yard signs with the names of Classroom and Event sponsors are being placed around the edge of the track on Race Day to encourage all of our runners. Our Event Sponsors will be recognized on a banner hung at the school on Race Day and for the week after the Race. Classroom and Event Sponsors will also be thanked and recognized on our school’s website.
