Dear ACS Community,
The weather has begun to become a little colder, and a number of parents have asked whether we could reduce the use of fans during the chilly weather that La Paz is now experiencing. Our Health and Safety team met today to consider this question and decided that the local incidence of COVID-19 remains low enough to stop using fans. We still encourage students to dress warmly because it will still be important keep the classroom windows open. The free exchange of air between inside and outside is dramatically more effective than any type of filtration or other measures. It will also reduce the risk of spreading other diseases such as influenza.
At this time, the end of the school year is starting to come into view. So, I'm happy to share a few upcoming dates with our community.
- 18 May—ACS Pep Rally
- 27 May—Senior Farewell
- 30 May—Elementary School Presidential Awards Ceremony
- 2 June—Elementary School Graduation
- 2 June—Secondary School Presidential Awards Ceremony
- 3 June—High School Graduation
All events will have a web link provided, but graduates will also receive a limited number of in-person tickets for the relevant ceremonies.
Finally, I would like to remind parents that applications for financial aid in the 2022-2023 school year are due before midnight on Wednesday, May 18, 2022. Please make sure to get an early start.
Have a great week ahead.
Yours,
Andrew
