1. End of Year Celebrations and Dates specific to ACHS or LCHS! As we head into the very busy last 7 weeks of the school year, please remember that you can view Dr. Berrie's ("Sequoit Weekly") and Ms. Bowen's ("News from the Nest") super informative weekly newsletters in your email inbox and anytime on our websites at the very first link on the top left of the menu bar titled "Quick Links" OR just click here for ACHS or here for LCHS . This is the "one stop shop" for you to get the most current answers to your questions when you think "When was the date for X?" or "Who do I contact for Y"?!
