A.C. Blunt Middle School celebrated Veteran's Day by honoring Veteran's from four branches of the military: Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. ACBMS Security Officer Hailey Dehner was our key note speaker while the NJROTC Cadets, Winter Guard and Band performed. Thank you Veteran's for your service and sacrifice. We were truly honored to be able to honor you.
It's almost turkey time! Campuses will send home more information regarding pre-check in and specific meal times for classes/grade levels.
A BIG thank you to the Aransas Pass Lion's Club for supporting our students. Friday they gave out popcorn and pop-its to our students who were Never Ever Absent, Tardy or Checked Out Early(NEATCOE) during the 2nd 6 weeks grading period. Today they returned to reward our students who made the A and A/B Honor Rolls during the 2nd 6 weeks grading period with popcorn and ribbons. We love having our Lion's Club friends support our students.
