ACS successfully hosted the U19 Girls’ SAISA Volleyball 2025 @ACS:

As our AD, Mo, put it in his closing ceremony speech yesterday, this past weekend was really about the “C” in ACS! We’d like to congratulate Mo Hourani on a job incredibly done! 

An exhilarating feeling of positivity throughout. There were no easy games, every single team was a tough one to beat, with 10 incredibly well-trained teams going toe-to-toe every time with amazing nail-bitingly close games, with plays we could hardly believe.

The roar of the Scorpion crowd on the first day for each and every team, was beautiful! But even with the weekend crowd, it kept going, with many of our Scorpions being awarded SAISA’s highest honor: the “S” pin for outstanding sportsmanship… for cheering, hugs, helping and caring for other teams. Our “voice of SAISA” also got an “S” pin for creating such a wonderful experience with his unique commentary, highlighting seniors playing at every game and giving the players super creative nicknames. A big thank you also goes out to our very own custodian, Mohammad Younes, who was honored to have been given an “S” pin by our Scorpion girls for being in the Gym getting everything ready at 7am when they came in and cleaning up for the next day when they left late at night.

SAISA is such a feel-good event that brings our international community together, so much so that 2 of the teams’ coaches being alumni of the schools they coach!

The sight of all other teams standing at the sideline with a standing ovation for the loosing team, respecting the work they put into a hard and beautifully played game…

Finally, all the teams chanting the school chants when as they got up to the theater stage to receive their medals was truly heart-warming. All in all it was truly soul-feeding!

The Booster Club had a great success with the “snack table” and caterer… fundraising for the end of year MS & HS activities awards banquet.
