A Note from our Principal

Hello, ACS Families!

As I enter my fourth year as Principal, I’m filled with great anticipation for what God has in store for the 2025–2026 school year. This year, our theme is focused on what it means to SOAR like an eagle. To soar means “to rise high or increase rapidly to a high level,” and I’m excited to see our school community rise—in our relationships, our pursuit of academic excellence, and our service to Christ and others.

Last year, we introduced new elective options and most importantly, we witnessed students deepen their walk with Christ. This year, we’ve welcomed passionate and gifted new staff members, added even more elective opportunities, and made thoughtful adjustments to our schedule to better meet the academic and social-emotional needs of our students.

My prayer for this year is that each student will embrace what it truly means to be an ACS Eagle—to support and care for one another with Christ-like compassion, to strive for excellence in the classroom, and to actively seek opportunities to serve both our school and the world around us.

It is a true joy to partner with you in your child’s educational journey. Thank you for entrusting ACS with your student. I believe this will be our best year yet—and I can’t wait to see your son or daughter thrive!

With gratitude and excitement,

Dr. Natalie Henderson
MS/HS Principal

MS/HS FAQs

Where can I find my student’s class schedule?

Student schedules are available in FACTS (formerly RenWeb). If you have questions about scheduling, reach out to our Academic Director, Mrs. Holly Henning.

What is the dress code for high school students?

The dress code is outlined in the Parent & Student Handbook, which can be found on the ACS website under the “Resources” tab. Please review it with your student to ensure they are dressed appropriately and in alignment with the school’s Christ-centered values.

How does my student get a locker or parking pass?

Students can select their locker and request a parking pass during the annual Block Party event. If you’re unable to attend, these items can be picked up at the Main Office prior to the first day of school. 

What electives are offered to high school students?

ACS provides a growing list of elective courses, including options in fine arts, technology, physical education, and life skills. We’re continually expanding offerings to meet students’ interests and strengths.

What sports and extracurricular opportunities are available?

ACS has a variety of extracurriculars for high school students, including athletics, clubs, and fine arts programs. Visit the “Athletics” and “Fine Arts” pages on the website for more information and contacts.

What if my student is struggling in a class?

We encourage students to speak with their teachers first. However, our staff is committed to supporting academic success and offers individualized help when needed. Don’t hesitate to contact the school for additional resources.

What is chapel, and how often does it occur?

Chapel is held weekly and is a highlight of the ACS experience. It includes worship, teaching, and opportunities for spiritual growth. It’s an important time for students to grow in their faith and connect with one another.

What should I do if my child will be absent from school?

Please contact the school office by phone or email to report the absence. Your student will be responsible for checking with teachers to make up any missed assignments or classwork. If there will be an extended absence, please contact the principal.

What are the school day hours for middle and high school students?

The regular school day runs from 7:45 AM to 2:50 PM unless otherwise noted. Check the school calendar and communications for any special scheduling. Students may enter the building as early as 7:00 AM. Extended Supervision is offered from 3:15 PM - 6:00 PM for a fee.

How can I stay up to date with what’s happening at school?

Stay informed by checking your email regularly, logging into FACTS, and visiting the ACS website. Make sure your contact information is current so you don’t miss important announcements.
