Dear American Academy Parents,
American academy character:
During the month of October our character focus will be on Self-Control. Over the course of the month, teachers will incorporate lessons on self-control into their planned lessons and activities. Staff throughout the building will encourage students to show self-control and model the behaviors we expect to see from our students.
Self-Control
The ability to take control of your own thoughts, feelings, language, actions, and therefore, to take control of your objective results.
To master this trait, one must start with the little things:
Control your thoughts
Control your temper
Control your fear
Control your speech
Control your habits

Rebel Citizenship Program — Starts After Fall Break!
We’re excited to relaunch our Rebel Citizenship Program after fall break! This leadership opportunity allows middle school students to give back to our school community by volunteering in an elementary classroom once a week during their study hall. Students will assist teachers, serve as positive role models, and help younger Rebels learn and grow—all while developing their own responsibility and leadership skills. Students that completed the application and a teacher recommendation form will receive their placements this week!
Uniform Reminder
Oversized sweatshirts
We are starting to see several students come to school with sweatshirts that are oversized to the point where we are unable to see the bottoms worn. Please ensure that your child has an appropriate length sweatshirt as part of their school uniform.
Leggings
A friendly reminder that leggings must be worn with a top that covers their bottoms and encircles the entire way around their body.
Upcoming Dates to Make Note
