Atlantic Christian School showed its appreciation to our veterans at an All-School Chapel in the gymnasium on November 11. Our keynote speaker was Egg Harbor Township Mayor Paul Hodson, a U.S. Army veteran. ACS students from the ACS Boy Scout Troop and Pack 389 formed a color guard that opened the chapel program. The program included presentations by ACS students from elementary to high school, including the Middle School Band, the Middle School Choir, and the 5th grade worship team. After the chapel, a boy and girl from each class from kindergarten to the 12th grade went outside to place American flags around the school sign and along Zion Road in front of the school. ACS students also created special hand-made gifts for veterans that were mailed to various local American Legion and VFW posts.
Due to COVID-19 health and safety protocols, ACS was not able to invite local veterans to attend the chapel as in past years, but the chapel was streamed live on YouTube and is available to view at http://bit.ly/ACSVeteransDay.
