     ACA’s vision statement speaks about the importance of developing moral leadership skills in our students. The Griffin Goodfellows is a voluntary program designed to keep ACA students ever mindful of their responsibilities to their country, their community, and each other.

     

    If a student performs the required number of community service hours by May 10, 2024, they will receive a certificate and be acknowledged for their acts of service at grade level Awards ceremonies. Students eligible for a Griffin Goodfellow Award are expected to complete the following service hours:

     

    •  K - 3rd grade = 10 hours
    •  4th -  5th grade =  15 hours
    •  6th -  8th grade =  20 hours
     
    All hours need to be recorded at home.  If your child is completing service hours for a house of worship, social or non-profit group, those hours may be used for the Griffin Goodfellows program as well.
     

    To help keep track of Griffin Goodfellow hours, a copy of this form is always available at the front office and on the ACA website. Completed forms are to be turned in to the front office your child attends, by May 10, 2024.

     

    If you have any questions, please ask your child’s teacher or the campus.
