Welcome Back to School Information
The start of the 2021-2022 school year is just around the corner for ACMS. Below is helpful information from your principal, Mr. Dustin Farmer. We are excited to see our students soon!
#1: The Ashe County’s Back 2 School Blast is this Saturday from 10 am until 2 pm, located in the parking lot of the Ashe County Courthouse and Sheriff's department. At this event, ACMS will have a booth where students will receive class lists, team supply lists, and have the opportunity to win prizes.
#2: Next Tuesday evening, August 10 from 5:30-7:30 we will have 8th-grade open house. This will be a drive-through format. At the event we will distribute Chromebooks, you will get to meet your team of teachers, and pick up schedules and supply lists if you have not already done so.
#3: Thursday evening, August 12 from 5:30-7:30 will be our 7th-grade open house. We will distribute Chromebooks, you will be able to meet your team, and also get your schedules and supply lists if you have not done so.
Times for 7th and 8th-grade open house will be determined this Thursday afternoon, and an additional phone call will go out Thursday evening with the times.
Chromebook Information:
Again this year, there will be a usage contract form (linked below) that must be signed by each student and parent and a $30 mobile device fee which can be paid on the evening of open house. We also have the option for parents to pay their Chromebook fee online prior to coming to pick up their device. There is a small fee for using this service. If possible, please print your receipt and bring it with you to Open House, which will speed up the distribution process. For more information about paying online, click the ONLINE SCHOOL PAYMENTS link here or the link found in the top of the ACMS website and create an account.
