Anacortes Christian School

SPRING UPDATE
We have been enjoying the sunshine, it would appear spring has sprung! Here's some fun activities and updates!

ELECTIVES
At ACS, we strive to help students discover how God has gifted them and what He has made them curious about. One of the ways we see this played out is through exposing kids to a wide variety of electives! These last few months we did Science (oobleck!), Umpiring, and Engineering Principles!

VISIT FROM MAYOR RYAN
Our students have been learning about leadership in Social Studies so we had Mayor Ryan Walters come out to teach us about what it looks like to lead our town!

DIORAMA PROJECT
As part of science, students chose an animal and made a diorama and presentation all about it and its habitat!

Enrollment for the '26-'27 School Year is officially open! Go to https://www.anacorteschristianschool.org/ to learn more!

A wonderful winter at ACS! Christmas Concerts, Dance Elective, an awesome visit from the Anacortes Police Department, and much more!

Another wonderful month at ACS! Here were some fun highlights!

CAR MAINTENANCE ELECTIVE
Mark Rodriguez came and taught the students some valuable lessons on Car Maintenance including checking tire pressure and oil, understanding car light signals, and how to wash the car!

TURKEY TROT 5K
We had our annual fundraiser, the Anacortes Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day morning! Despite the nasty weather, we had record attendance!

FALL FUN
We had a field trip, did lots of fun Thanksgiving crafts, and learned about God's providence and generosity!

Dear ACS supporters,
Hope everyone is getting adjusted to the fall weather! October was a stormy but wonderfully memorable month. Here's some fun highlights:

HIGHLIGHTS
- Students finished their construction elective and began their Car Maintenance elective with Mr. Mark! Students have learned how to check their oil, verify their fluid levels, change a tire, and wash the car!
- We had an All-School field trip to Schuh Farms where we had both the Preschool AND the Elementary School on the same trip! Students got to feed chickens and goats, take a hayride, pick out a pumpkin, and learn about the pumpkin growth cycle!
- We had the wonderful Anacortes Fire Department come out to give us a presentation and to show off the fire engine. Safe to say the students were very excited!
- The students are making great progress in their academics, it is so encouraging to see these future leaders growing and learning!

UPCOMING EVENT
We have our big fundraiser coming up, the Anacortes Turkey Trot! This is a 5k fun run on Thanksgiving morning on the beautiful Tommy Thompson trail right here in Anacortes. Please encourage friends and family to sign up!

What a wonderful first five weeks of school! It has been such a joy to get to know this new group of students and to see them be so excited to learn! Here's some fun highlights:

- On the first day of school, students accepted their Purple Cross award, recognizing their bravery for accepting the unique mission that God has called them to.

- Students enjoyed our first elective of the year, Construction with Mr. Bill! They learned how to use a level, tape measure, chalk-line, screw driver, hammer, and more! The culminating project was measuring, cutting, hammering and squaring a cross.

- Students learned through curiosity, hypothesis, and testing in science class!

End of School Year Update
Hello ACS supporters! Thank you all for another amazing year here at ACS! The last few weeks of school in June were awesome.
- We had an action-packed field day! Students participated in games, relay races, and team-work activities at Storvik Park. It was a beautiful day and the kids had a blast!
- We had a fun Luau themed end-of-year party! The sliders and Hawaiian meatballs were a big hit.

But best of all, we took about an hour afterwards to highlight ways that we have seen God's gifts in our students. It is our mission to ensure that student's leave our program with a strong confidence in who God has made them to be and what wonderful and unique purpose He has designed for them. It was so touching to watch each student be visibly impacted by the words the teachers shared. Every kid left beaming!

We are looking forward to another year and appreciate your ongoing prayer and support!
