"As I enter my 13th year at ACS, I’m proud to be part of a school community that values relationships, support, and growth. Our HR department strives to make onboarding an exceptional experience for new hires and to build a strong sense of community for every staff member. Both of my children started their educational journeys here at ACS before moving back to Canada and then to the US and I’ve seen firsthand the incredible foundation this school provides. It’s a privilege to contribute to a school where staff and faculty feel supported and valued."
