Here we are at the theater for a play presentation of “A Charlie Brown Christmas” by Charles M. Shultz!
ACA at ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’!
Great S.T.E.M. video: shaving cream goes crazy in a vacuum chamber (plus 7 other experiments)
Jamie’s Chuck Glider!
Fun + Art + STEM
- ACA students are having a blast making their own hand tossed gliders! The STEM acronym stands for Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics. This element is introduced by the students learning about lift generated by wing camber angles and about how adjustments to their elevators and ailerons can make their plane fly better. More pics to follow!

ACA First School Day of 2015 is Tomorrow (Mon, Jan 5)
Here are a couple of ACA’s super-sharp students, while at church at CAC!
ACA students using 3D modeling for fun; making art
Today we combined Art class and Computer Science class into one. The students used SketchUp (a 3D modeling program) to create a snowman/winter scene. Great job! Congratulations to all the students! One student, Kieran, took it a step further (see image above), doing extra credit work after school to detail his scene even further, resulting in this exported 2D image tweaked for Christmas.
ACA 2012 Video (w/ CAC Grads)
Students, staff, parents, volunteers, and friends of ACA/CAC: turn up your speakers and grab the kleenex! We were going to show this last night during the graduation/award ceremonies, but the software refused to render it. We finally learned that we had to place the media files onto the virtual machine’s drive with the software. (Now we know…)
Graduation and Awards Ceremony Tonight
