Since the day Arizona Charter Academy (ACA) first opened, the teachers and staff have always strived to offer innovative learning programs that inspire students to want to learn. Next month, on the first day of school, ACA will officially launch its Integrated Academy of Studies program for the middle school students. Melissa Montenegro, Enrollment and Marketing Manager at ACA, said the Integrated Academy of Studies was custom developed by the dedicated staff to empower students to discover their passions and interests as early as possible. Students can then continue to deepen and develop their skills in high school and career and technical education programs, which will provide them with an
At ACA we believe in celebrating victories, no matter how big or small. Every month, we hold Student of the Month assemblies where our teachers pick a student that stands out above the rest. We hold a monthly assembly where we invite their families and recognize them in front of their classmates and families. It’s always a fun time for all!
Mrs. Bev and Mrs. Jody have been working with ACA students for over 10+ years on a completely volunteer basis. They help our students with reading and literacy and have worked closely with Ms. Hernandez (currently a Kindergarten teacher) throughout the years. They recently presented a book they wrote, illustrated and published to one of our Kindergarten classes. Thank you Mrs. Bev and Mrs. Jody for your time, efforts, care and love towards the students at ACA!
We are proud of our former student, DaiSean Kirk (class of 2015), as he was recently the recipient of a basketball scholarship to play for Ottawa University in the 17/18 school year. Ottowa University is quoted as saying “We feel that you have the educational background and the athletic ability to contribute to our program”. Great job, DaiSean! The Kirk’s have been apart of the ACA family for years and they still have 2 of their children in attendance. Once a Bulldog, always a Bulldog!
Recently, ACA put up brand new playground safety rules signage. These signs have been a work in progress for some time and were compiled by the teachers that serve outside playground duty as well as input from the students. Teachers made sure the kids read and understood the rules the first day they were put up. Great job teachers and students on keeping ACA a fun and safe place!
