🚯 ACGC Student Council Cleans Up 22 Bags of Litter! 🚯
Our Student Council wrapped up their MnDOT Adopt-a-Highway cleanup just as the sun was setting on Thursday, collecting 22 bags of garbage along U.S. Highway 12. Let’s all do our part to keep our roads clean – please, don’t litter!
Thank you, Student Council, for your hard work and commitment to our community! 🦅 #ACGC #AdoptAHighway #KeepItClean #NoLittering
Exciting day in 6th Grade Earth Science! Today, our young scientists are digging deep—literally and figuratively—into the layers of the Soil Horizon! 🌱
We explored:
The O-Horizon (Organic Matter) 🍃
The A-Horizon (Topsoil) 🌿
The B-Horizon (Subsoil) 🌾
The C-Horizon (Weathered Parent Rock) 🪨
The R-Horizon (Bedrock) 🌋
Students took notes and created visuals to represent the rich layers beneath our feet, analyzing the soils found in the world around them. It’s amazing to see their curiosity come alive as they map out each layer’s unique role in our ecosystem. Here’s to fostering the next generation of geologists and environmentalists!
🗳️ ACGC Students Take Part in Minnesota Students Voting Mock Election! 🗳️
While the rest of the country was voting on Tuesday, our ACGC 5th-12th graders got a hands-on experience with democracy through the Minnesota Students Voting Mock Election, organized by the Minnesota Secretary of State.
Our Student Council members served as election judges, guiding their peers through the voting process. After casting their ballots, students proudly sported the iconic red "I've Voted" stickers.
Great job, Falcons, for practicing civic engagement and preparing to be future voters! 🦅 #ACGC #MockElection #StudentsVote #CivicEngagement #FutureVoters
