Our first ABEC trip abroad was an incredible way for 74 staff, students, and family members to spend Spring Break 2024. WE traveled across Europe for 9 days exploring Rome, Florence, Verona, Austria, and finished in Munich, Germany! 🛫🌎🇮🇹🇦🇹🇩🇪
We have an update on the Spring Break travels of our ABSS Early College at ACC students! 🇮🇹 🇩🇪
🏛️ Over the past week, they have been embarking on an educational journey through the historic sites and cultural wonders of Italy and Germany. From the grand Colosseum and Roman Forum to the breathtaking Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica, our students are experiencing these world-famous landmarks and works of art firsthand in a way that vividly brings their classroom lessons alive.
🕯️This trip also provides moments of reflection, as our students pay respect at Dachau and connect their Holocaust studies to the powerful realities of the past. Coupled with visits to a Bavarian castle and the streets of Romeo and Juliet, it is a wonderful opportunity to broaden their global perspectives.
📷 We can see them here in front of St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City and the Colosseum in Rome - memories to cherish for a lifetime! Safe travels, adventurers!
We are thrilled to congratulate our 2024 Classified Employees of the Year! 🌟These dedicated staff members take on diverse and critical roles that provide vital support for the education of our students. We deeply appreciate their hard work. Congratulations!
We are proud to announce the 2024 ABSS Teachers of the Year! 🌟
These exceptional teachers are making a real difference in their students' lives. They care deeply about their students’ growth and success every day. Whether helping a struggling learner find their confidence, making lessons fun through imaginative activities, or supporting students through life's challenges, their student-first commitment is worthy of praise.
Please join us in celebrating them! 👏

'Tis the season for snowmen! ⛄️ This morning, our Alamance Burlington Early College at ACC students came to Alexander Wilson Elementary to spread some holiday cheer. These high schoolers embraced their inner teacher as they read stories aloud and helped our younger students with their snowman crafts. Both the little listeners and the teen teachers enjoyed the festive visit!
Winter break is in full swing for ABEC students, yet many of them spent their morning at Alexander Wilson reading to kindergartners and helping with Holiday crafts. 🥰 We love our students and their serving hearts! ❤️
