Who dunnit? Do you have a *clue*? The grade 12 drama class is bringing the infamous detective game to the stage, and they want you to investigate! Look out for ticket sale dates and mark your calendars for Thursday, May 30th. Are you ready to crack the case? This show is going to be a killer.

Dear ACS Students, ACS Knit Club needs your help. We are currently creating  a large scale blanket with stitched squares as we hope to raise awareness of any social justice issue you feel need to be addressed in our school community and/or the world. We will create awareness  with QR codes with yarn display in the month of June: this is called yarn bombing. Despite its name, it has gained popularly around the world as a social justice platform for change. Give your voice and educate others! Email Mrs. Cameron with issue you wish to share with your fellow Lions. 

Attention Lions! You are invited to join Assumption's 15th Annual Tree Planting trip, happening at Brant Park on Monday April 22nd.  This is a free event, including bussing and a light lunch.

It's happening right now in the Library. The Taylor Swift versus Shakespeare contest.

The winners will be announced on Shakespeare's birthday, April 23rd. Good luck!
