Hello Stingray Nation!
First, a message from our PTSA: Come out and show your school spirit at our PTSA Spirit Night on Tuesday, September 23rd, from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, at Culver's on Gate (7818 Gate Parkway, Jacksonville, FL 32256). Enjoy a delicious meal while supporting Atlantic Coast High School's PTSA. A portion of the evening’s proceeds will go directly toward funding programs, events, and resources for our students and teachers. It’s a win-win! This is a great opportunity to meet other Stingray families, connect with the PTSA, and learn about how you can get involved. Whether you’re a long-time supporter or new to the school, we’d love to see you there! Mark your calendar, bring your appetite, and spread the word! Let’s make it a fun and successful night for our school community. We can’t wait to see you on September 23rd at Culver's!
Senior parents! We are hosting a meeting for you this Wednesday night, September 24th, at 6pm in the auditorium. Attendance at this meeting will earn your student an additional ticket to graduation so we look forward to seeing you all there.
The theme for this year’s Homecoming dance is “Dancing in the Moonlight.” Tickets to the dance are $35 and can be purchased online at dcps.schoolcashonline.com. Tickets must be purchased online in advanced, no tickets will be available the day of the dance. Tickets have sold out the last few years, so don’t wait! Members of the senior bundle do not need to purchase a ticket, one was included in your bundle.
Voting for Homecoming Court begins this week. Students may only vote for their grade level participant. Students running for court must bring their posters/banner to Mrs. Leon-Williams classroom, room 212, for approval. Students may NOT pass out food or candy.
Homecoming Dance Guest Forms are due THIS Friday, September 26th. The signed form along with a copy of your guest's ID can be turned into Room 212. You must turn in these items in order to purchase a guest ticket on School Cash Online. You can pick up and turn in forms in room 212. A PDF of the outside guest form was also emailed out to your DCPS student emails.
The Bizi Store will be open this Thursday and Friday morning before school begining at 6:45am from the window of 212 (located between the auditorium and the courtyard). If you have senior leave, this is the perfect time to swing by and grab the snacks and drinks you ordered. Don’t miss out!
Attention Seniors: We are officially in college application season. If you’re planning to apply to colleges or universities, please check the application deadlines for each school you're interested in. These deadlines are available on the official websites of the colleges and universities. Many schools have Early Action deadlines as early as October 15th, so it’s important not to delay. Start now and stay ahead of the deadlines!
As always, if you have any feedback or input on our work here at Atlantic Coast please reach out to the school.
