Today the A. C. Blunt HOPE Squad traveled to the Good Samaritan Homeless Shelter in Corpus Christi to distribute 200 hygiene packs. Each pack had a toothbrush and toothpaste, a comb and brush, shampoo and conditioner, as well as tissue, soap, lotion, socks, and lip balm. The items were purchased with grant money from the Education Foundation. Also, an organization in New Jersey, called Blankets of Hope, donated 200 blankets that we were able to hand out to the residents.
Reminder, tomorrow, February 16 is a student and staff holiday! APISD will be closed in observance of Presidents Day. Classes resume Tuesday, February 17.

#WeAreAP #GrowGreatness
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.
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.
