The American Community School - (Private)
 |
To achieve our mission, ACS has defined strategic objectives to develop students who have the knowledge and skills to set and achieve goals, to articulate and pursue their dreams and to enhance society. We believe in developing the full talents and capabilities of students, so our programs encompass academics, fine arts, athletics and other activities that are developmental, challenging, stimulating and relevant to the lives of our students.
The ACS mission recognizes the importance of working in partnership with parents to reinforce core values and to provide a nurturing, supportive educational environment for students. With support from parent volunteers and guided by our Strategic Plan, ACS has made substantial improvements in facilities, curriculum, personnel development, and communications over the past four years, and we are striving for higher levels of performance.
Established in 1972, ACS is a private, non-profit school licensed by the Ministry of Education, accredited by the Middle States Association (MSA), administered by the Superintendent and governed by an eight-person Board of Trustees. Community support for excellence in education, a strong leadership team, highly qualified faculty and staff and outstanding students have enabled ACS to establish an excellent reputation in the community and worldwide.
