Third graders read Charlotte's Web together in class as their last chapter book together. This book focuses on friendships of all kinds. The students made mini paper mache piggies like Wilbur in the book as their final project! They turned out so cute!
It was the final School Store of the year! Thank you for the support by purchasing yummy snacks and treats all year! Thank you to all of the 4th and 5th graders for working the checkout counter. Big thanks to the Rock family for organizing the punch cards and store supplies each week. Also thank you to the 4th and 5th grade parents for helping make popcorn and set up the store. It is a great success because of your support and everyone working together!

The 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders in ULE (gifted ed) got to make some sweet marble mazes! They demonstrated their creations to each of the ACE classrooms. They turned out awesome! Thank you Mrs. Robinson for giving these kids so many opportunities to grow and learn!
We had a kickball challenge in Family! It was Rausis vs Leloux, Joffer vs Nelson, and Gray vs Pike! It's always a fun way to end the year!
The second graders had a wonderful field trip at Prairie Village in Madison on Friday. They enjoyed seeing all of the sites. Fun times!

First graders enjoyed their last field trip to the Washington Pavilion together! What a fun year of memories!
Fifth graders loved cracking open their geodes and exploring what was inside! Neat!
JT Rock came to read to the All City students on May 14th. JT is a former ACE student and is currently attending Iowa State University majoring in kinesiology during his freshman year. He is also a member of the Cyclone's men’s basketball team and an excellent role model to these students! The kids love asking him questions about his life and always ask about his height! We love when former students come back to visit! Come back again soon, JT! Thanks for visiting and best of luck in your upcoming BB season!
We had our annual Tug-of-War Challenge during Family. It is kindergarten vs 1st, 2nd vs 3rd, and 4th vs 5th. It gets very competitive, but always so fun to see the kids chanting and cheering on each grade!
We only have one School Store day left next week! We appreciate all of the support all year! This time they even had a super tall special guest working checkout! Thanks JT for filling in!
