Monday starts our summer program and all the kids at AoCS are VERY excited.  This week we got our awesome summer shirts and tote bags and some of the kids couldn't wait till next week to wear them.  We are transforming our center with summer decorations and the fun like special guests and water play days are soon about to start.  Here are some pics from last night's family cook out.

Honoring Long Term AoCS Staff

This past Friday was our annual Spring Conference. To conclude the day, the long term staff in our company was recognized. Congrats to Ms. Neeta who was honored as a teacher who has served almost 8 years!  And did you know that the top three longest running teachers are all at AoCS?!  We are so proud to have Ms. Dana, Ms. Sebrina, and Ms. Robin at our school. They each won a new set of luggage to go along with their all expense paid vacation to the mountains!  Congrats ladies and thank you for so many wonderful years!  We look forward to many more to come!

Pre-K Graduate Behind the Scene Pics

Today we had Pre-K Two cap and gown pictures. It's bittersweet to see them so grown and preparing to leave us for kindergarten. Here's some behind the scene shots at the cute pictures.  We can't wait to launch our award winning Kindergarten Boot Camp program in June followed by our graduation on August 1st. 

MUD DAY!!!

Today was one of our most favorite days of the year...MUD DAY!!!  Who wouldn't want to get messy and play in the mud?!  We had four different mud stations...mud pie making, flower planting, digging for creatures, and mud art.  The kids and teachers had a blast.  Playing in mud is a fantastic sensory activity for children and can really allow their imaginations to blossom.  We can't wait for Mud Day 2015!
