AACS Community Buy/Sell Used Textbooks 

 You can order textbooks through an outside vendor or through our third party vendor, Edtech, which coordinates and streamlines the book purchasing process.  Online textbook resources, such as some Spanish courses, must be purchased through Edtech.  Particular attention must be paid when purchasing textbooks from a source other than Edtech to ensure that the textbook is the exact title and edition required for the course.  Using ISBN numbers, and not titles, is essential to this process.

AACS strives to foster a culture of safety for students while utilizing digital devices in the academic setting. Therefore, parents and students must sign and return the Acceptable Use Policy Statement. New and returning students must bring the signed form to orientation to receive their Chromebook. 

Personal Technology Devices
Any personal technology device not approved for classroom use--e.g. cell phones, airpods, and smart watches--must be off and out of sight during the school day.  Personal technology devices are kept in backpacks for use after school should parents need to be phoned or texted for pick-up or other emergencies. Occasionally, mobile devices might be employed for academic purposes (e.g. iPad, AirPods, or a laptop), other than the AACS-issued Chromebooks. If this is necessary, these personal technology devices must be registered and approved. Download the  registration form here. Teachers may implement classroom procedures to ensure the academic climate is not hindered nor disrupted by unauthorized personal technology device use.  Any unauthorized technology devices used during the academic day will be confiscated, given to the dean or principal and picked up by the student's parent or guardian.  

Internet Safety
AACS does not receive federal discounts for its internet services, however, AACS follows the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) guidelines for internet safety in schools, the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) and the Protecting Children in the 21st Century Act. Our Internet safety policy includes technology protection measures according to the below FCC guidelines.  

The protection measures must block or filter Internet access to pictures that are: (a) obscene; (b) child pornography; or (c) harmful to minors (for computers that are accessed by minors). Before adopting this Internet safety policy, schools and libraries must provide reasonable notice and hold at least one public hearing or meeting to address the proposal.  Schools subject to CIPA have two additional certification requirements: 1) their Internet safety policies must include monitoring the online activities of minors; and 2) as required by the Protecting Children in the 21st Century Act, they must provide for educating minors about appropriate online behavior, including interacting with other individuals on social networking websites and in chat rooms, and cyberbullying awareness and response.

Athletic Director Josiah Wolf's June 8 email provides an overview of the AACS athletic program, including offseason workouts and the staff/coach directory page.  Please see the 2022-2023 School Year Forms for all links to athletic team registration and required physical form. If you are planning to play a fall sport (football, soccer, cross country, volleyball, or field hockey), tryouts and practices are starting. You can check the schedule on the AACS Athletics website. In order to participate in any AACS sport or Marching Band, you must register on FamilyID and provide a physical exam that was conducted by a licenced medical professional. No exceptions! Medical physical exams are valid for 13 months. 

All exterior building doors on the Upper School campus are secured through a computerized locking system. Students will be issued ID cards (a.k.a. Card Keys) at orientation that will be programmed to allow access to the buildings at appropriate times. As such, all students must carry their ID card on them at all times in order to gain access to campus buildings. If a student loses his/her ID card, please report the loss immediately so the card can be deactivated for the safety of everyone on campus. A fee of $20 will be charged to replace lost ID cards.
