Parent-Teacher
Association
Your PTA is involved in many aspects of your child’s
exposure and experience at ACA, including academic and non-academic areas.
Some of the goals
of PTA are:
- To promote the welfare of your children at ACA, and
the community at large.
- To encourage and
enhance the relationship between home and school to bring parents,
administrators, and teachers closer in order to cooperate for the
enhancement and development of your children at ACA.
- To sponsor projects and events for the benefit of all
ACA students.
Want to know how to
get involved?
We need volunteers for many upcoming events. Contact us at
