🎓ACS Early College Campaign: Today we will be spotlighting some of our current EC students! Every Friday our junior and senior EC students have a seminar course with our EC Coordinator. The purpose of the seminar is to help ensure EC students have the tools, resources, and knowledge needed to be successful throughout their college experience. One key factor in college success is understanding the terminology. Last week junior and senior EC students competed in College Terminology Jeopardy. Juniors won the “payday” by wagering everything on a Double Jeopardy. Join us February 24 to learn more about our Early College Program! #TigerPride #EarlyCollege

Hello, ACS students and families! Did you know ACS has an Early College (EC) Program? Today we will be kicking off our EC campaign with Mrs. Cordes, our EC Coordinator. From now until spring break we will be highlighting our program, student accomplishments, college resources available to our students, and more! Today's feature is the introduction of Mrs. Cordes, our EC Coordinator! Did you know that ACS has a partnership with Alpena Community College that allows our EC Coordinator to have an office at the ACC campus in Alpena? Every Wednesday Mrs. Cordes can be found in her ACC office in room 110A in the Newport Center. Being on campus allows Mrs. Cordes to better support and meet with our 5th year EC students. Join us February 24 to learn more about Early College and Dual Enrollment! #TigerPride #EarlyCollege
