Refer to the School District Calendar for important dates and times, including early dismissal days. The calendar will note the time school ends on these days. If your child rides the bus, it should take your child an equitable amount of time to get home on the bus as it takes them on a regular day. The school usually sends home reminders about these days to avoid confusion. Read the updates carefully.

There is a Lost and Found area at school across from the ACE school cafeteria. The Transportation Office (located directly across the parking lot from the Mendon Center Elementary main entrance) also has a Lost and Found.

In the spring, PTSA organizes Teacher and Staff Appreciation Day. Room Reps will contact families about classroom plans. Recent NYS tax laws state that gifts worth a total of $75 or more received from students have to be reported as extra earnings by the teachers. Over the holidays, some parents choose to send in cookies or other small tokens to show their appreciation. This is voluntary and again should not be a costly gift.

In the spring, the building principal sends home a form via your child's Take Home Folder requesting family input. The purpose of collecting input is to place students into the environment that best suits them. Families can’t request to have (or not have) a specific teacher. Current year teachers also provide feedback to the principal to help make the best choice for each child. A week or two before school starts, families receive a welcome back packet with teacher assignment and back to school information.

Art, gym, library, health, and music. Children in 4th and 5th grade also participate in science. Each day your child will have one or more special. Your classroom teacher will send this schedule home early in the school year.

Lunch and recess are at the same time each day. Hot lunches cost $4.00 for 2024-2025, and includes milk. A menu with daily selections is sent home at the beginning of each month and can also be found on the district website here. Fruit and yogurt, salads, and peanut butter and jelly are also offered on a daily basis. Parents are encouraged to sign up online for a debit card on MySchoolBucks.com. Lunch and recess times are listed on the Allen Creek home page. Please contact the school if your children have allergies or with questions.

More information about school directories will be shared with families at the beginning of the school year.

Bring a driver's license or photo ID when visiting. Anyone entering the school must use the main entrance and sign in at the office before entering the building. All other doors are locked during the school day. Visitors are required to wear a visitor sticker at all times while in the building. ACE Parent/Guardian Visitor Aware Self-Registration is now available. If you are coming to the building for a meeting or other scheduled visit, please note that you will need to sign in through our Visitor Aware software. You are encouraged to fill out your information ahead of time using this link. You will need to create an account for EACH child in your family, by building.
