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

Crosswalk Incident
As you may know, one of the parents at our school and her young son were struck by a car crossing the crosswalk at 10th and O Streets on their way to pick up their ACAII students from school. The crosswalk has pedestrian signs, but plenty of cars don’t notice when someone is trying to use the crosswalk. If you drive across O Street (by Paradise Skate entrance), please take care to look for pedestrians. If you are a citizen of Antioch, please consider writing our city council to ask them to install flashing lights at the crosswalk.
Fun Pasta Fundraiser 9/23/19-10/15/19
Pasta Fundraiser packets already went home. Please use the ordering form inside the packet for your personal records. Checks can be made out to ACA II. Return the large envelope with all checks and money collected. Be sure to write your final order amounts on the ordering section on outside of the envelope. Please keep the personal ordering form of who ordered what from you. You will need it to distribute products when you get them. The Fun Pasta fundraiser is for our General Fund and ends on 10/15/19. Thanks for supporting Antioch Charter Academy II.
Trinket Donations Needed
Primary and Elementary need your help. If you have any leftover birthday goodie bag trinkets they would love to have them. Anything from pencils, erasers, toys, etc. They are putting their birthday goodie bags together for this school year and are in need of some more items.
Pictures
Please check with your student as pictures will be coming home this week. If you missed picture day or are unhappy with the pictures send them back in and re-takes will be Tuesday, October 15th. This is our 1st day back from break.
October Lunch Menu is Attached
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 8:15am 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!
