ANTIOCH CHARTER ACADEMY II
NEWSLETTER
Our Mission
The mission of the Antioch Charter Academies is to facilitate academic and personal growth of TK‐8th grade students of all socio‐economic levels and ethnic backgrounds. ACA enables 21st century students to become literate, self‐motivated, innovative, lifelong learners, and compassionate, collaborative active citizens. We nurture and support a partnership of students, teachers, families and the community; embrace individual strengths; and build upon research informed educational best practices including Montessori, multiple intelligences, brain‐compatible teaching, and multi‐age groupings with small class sizes
Our Vision
To provide a learning environment where students of all socio‐economic levels and ethnic backgrounds embrace education, exhibit compassion, and accept personal responsibility

Lifetouch Pictures

Very Important Carpool Information
Please remember to Park in the gravel lot to the left when you drive in. The right side near the fence where the No Parking signs are is our walking path. It’s not safe for our student to walk in the road around the cars who have been parking there. Attached is our carpool map for you to review. The white lines on the paved road are for the flea market, not a guide for you to park your car next to. Please park on the gravel, not the paved road. Please share this with whoever picks up your student from school.
We are always looking for parents to help out with carpool. If you there waiting for your student please think about helping out for the 15 minutes that carpool takes. Check with the office or ask a teacher where you can help. It’s a great way to get volunteer hours.
PEP Family Survey!
PEP (Parent Education Program) meetings are for parents and families to learn and understand more about the programs and philosophies at our school.
Please take 5 minutes to let teachers know which Parent Education Program you would be interested in attending or viewing online. Also, help us figure out the best time for these kinds of events. Access the survey here
Donation
A special thank you to Jenn Noah for securing a large donation for our school from Fidelity Charitable last year.
Absences & Tardies
It is extremely important that your student is in school every day, and arrives on time. If though your student is sick, or will arrive late because of an unexpected delay, please call the office, or email your student’s classroom and office by 8am. Students who arrive after 8:15 am must be walked into the office by the driver, and signed in. All of these “rules” are in place to help keep your student safe! Contact information is below. Thank you!
