Spaghetti Dinner Wednesday March 24th
Parents are always welcome at ACS. Parents being involved at their child's home-away- from-home improves communication between home and school.
Our staff has recently been trained on a new assessment system called Creative Curriculum Assessment. The teaching staff participated in a 151/2 hour training program. This new assessment allows our center to apply for grant monies from the state under its new UPK (universal Pre-Kindergarten) program.

The Ayer Community School was incorporated in 1974 and has served the Ayer area ever since. Families enjoyed a half-day program until the fall of 1996 when a quality childcare program was added.
Today children come to ACS for preschool, for prekindergarten, and for part time and full time childcare.
The Ayer Community School takes pride in its team of early childhood professionals. The ACS staff is truly unique because of its 9 experienced, outstanding staff members and because of its extremely low staff turnover. 90% of the staff are mothers who bring valuable life experience into the classrooms. The staff are all certified by the MA Department of Early Education and Care; they are well qualified and all are committed to early childhood education. All are trained in CPR and First Aid.
The staff plans a balance of teacher directed and child initiated activities with individual learning styles considered. This welcoming staff provides an inviting, homey environment for its ACS children!
