Mark your calendars for this Thursday, March 16th, for Chick-fil-A
Restaurant Days. You can stop by the Chick-fil-A on Founders Parkway
ANYTIME (breakfast, lunch or dinner) and tell them you are with
Academy Charter School. Drive-thru is fine too. Best of all, this
year they are offering more generous splits above the standard
10% based on the ACS generated sales that day. Please take advantage
of this easy fundraiser to help the schoool, ingoy some good food
and friends, and hopefully make your life easier as well.
We raised $102 in February because we reached the 15% donation
level. If the turnout is good enough, we can even reach 20%. Thanks
to all who ventured out on that cold snowy night for the last one
(Feb. 16).
There will be one more big Restaurant Night before the end of
the year. Bon appetite!
PTO is still looking for parents who would be willing
to bring a potluck item for the staff luncheons this Thursday
and Friday (16th, 17th). If you can help out, please contact
Jackie Radcliffe at 303-663-7498 or Jackie_radcliffe@msn.com and let her know which day you can help. Thursday has a
Mexican theme and Friday is Italian.
Look for classroom auction baskets to be displayed in
the halls of ACS during Parent/Teacher Conferences and
before/after school as follows:
-
Thursday and Friday March
16th and March 17th (12:40 till 6 PM),
-
Before and after
school on Monday March 20th and Tuesday March 21st ,
-
Before
the PTO General Board Meeting on Tuesday March 21st
(6 to 6:30 PM).
Winners will be announced after the PTO Board
Meeting, but you do not have to be present to win!!!! PTO
meeting
starts at 6:30.
Look over the basket lists coming home in your Friday folders,
to get an idea of some of the exciting items awaiting your
bidding. Bring in your “wish list” during the
bidding times to ensure you bid on your favorite baskets.
Many thanks to the parents who contributed wonderful and
generous items toward their classroom basket. Many thanks
to the coordinators who worked so hard to make their classroom
basket a success.
Thank you for your support of this exciting fundraiser……….LET
THE BIDDING BEGIN!!

Watch your mail around April 7th for registration forms
coming your way for this year’s exciting new fundraiser,
Education Expo. Your registration forms will give you
details about the unique programs your child can choose,
brought to you by:
Depending on your child’s age group, he/she will
be able to choose 4 to 5 programs for the day, with each
program lasting 30 to 50 minutes each. Your child will
enjoy these exciting and unique programs in the comfort
of their own school, along with lunch and an exciting magic
show at the end of the day by our local and world-renowned
magicians from the Theatre of Dreams. Parents will be invited
back at the end of the day to enjoy the magic show with
their children.
This exciting and unique “day camp” experience
would cost you at least $100 per child if you took your
child to each of the businesses providing this year’s
programs; not to mention running all over the state trying
to get there.
The PTO is excited to bring your child this fun-filled
day camp, jam-packed with exciting, educational experiences.…not
to mention a day off for Mom and Dad.
Early Bird Registration (On or before April 17th):
Late Registration (after April 17th):

We are looking forward to spending a fun-filled day with
your child!
Have a terrific weekend!
