Ms. Joelle Basnight
I am pleased to share that ACS has found a way to ensure EYP remains as an educational program in our institution. To do so, we will “cap” the enrollment of this program at 20 students. We will launch the 2026-2027 application form on our admissions platform, OpenApply, on October 5, and we strongly encourage parents to enrol their children in EYP soon after the launch as space is limited. Families waiting to apply for enrollment until later in the spring may find the program is full.
If you enjoyed learning about our educational program over the past few weeks, we hope you will also enjoy the instructional video about our foundational documents and strategic plan (5 min 15 sec).
The annual calendar committee creation team have completed their initial tasks and now ask that community members comment on the two calendar options no later than October 10th by 4:00 pm. You can access the feedback survey here.
