2.   Hey Lions...don’t forget to check your school email account regularly! Guidance counsellors send important information about how to sign up for summer school as well to let you know if you got into a waitlisted course ....Don’t miss out! 

3.   Do you remember reading “The Outsiders” in gr.8? You know – Ponyboy? Dally? Well, here’s your chance to see it LIVE on stage and bring back those memories! The gr12 class, along with Director Emily Birrell and Assistant Director, Ashlyn Harris, have been working hard for over 2 months! Tickets are $10 and go on sale Thursday May 22nd. You can pick up your tickets during lunches at the back of the cafe or by emailing Mrs. Ratelband at nratelband@bhncdsb.ca  Bring extra cash as there will also be snacks available to buy at intermission! Warning: this show does contain violence, flashing lights and loud noises. So let’s support our fellow lions as they take the stage one last time!

5.   A friendly reminder that the Yearbook Club will be meeting this afternoon at 3:10p.m. in room 2028. Please come prepared to continue to work on Yearbook pages.   

6.   If you are a music student going on the Canada’s Wonderland trip tomorrow, listen up.  You must be at the school at 7:45 tomorrow morning.  The bus leaves at 8 and will leave without you.  We have a waiting list of students ready and willing to take your spot.  Bring your black music t-shirt and dress appropriate for the weather.  Remember...be at the school for 7:45a.m.   

7.   Have you ever wanted to walk where the saints walked, eat where the Italians really eat, and laugh your way through the Eternal City with teachers who treat faith, food, and fun like it’s part of the curriculum? Because at ACS… it is! Well… Andiamo!  The Italy 2026 Trip Information Meetings are happening on Monday, May 26th during all three lunches in the Lecture Hall! All students are welcome, whether you’re just dreaming about pizza in Florence or already signed up faster than Miss Dabrowski can say “San Giovanni Paolo Secondo!” (that’s St. John Paul the Second in Italian, of course!) Already signed up? Fantastico! You should still come, we’ll be talking all about fundraising opportunities to help make this trip more affordable. Don’t stress about the cost, there are numerous ways to fundraise! And here’s some dolce news: the $100 early sign-up discount has been extended until May 31st! So, save some money, pack your crossbody, and get ready to say ciao to bella Italia next March Break. Faith, food, and unforgettable memories await. 

8.   ACS Knit Club, there is no meeting this week. Next week is our final meet. Wed, May 28th from 3-4. Please bring back any needles/hooks if not attending the last meeting. Thank you for all you do, Mrs. Cameron.
