ChandlervilleBuilding Receives Library Computer
This winter, the A-C Central Junior High School building received a computer processor with a scanner for cataloging and circulation from an LSTA grant. Secretary of State Jessie White, awarded the library a FY2009 Library Services and Technology Act grant in the amount of $2,500.00 for our project titled. “A-C for A-C (Automation Challenge for Ashland/Chandlerville.)” This grant project enabled the Chandlerville building to connect their library holdings with other libraries within the Alliance Library System. The Ashland complex has been involved with the resource sharing program for several years. Pictured below l-r is Julie Savage, library aide at the Ashland complex, Diana Vaughn, library aide in Chandlerville, and Principal Deb Rodgers. Mrs. Savage was the trainer for this grant. Diane Hatcher, the district librarian, wrote the grant.

Because of the retirement of Mr. Dillow many transportation issues with the move are yet to be resolved. As soon as the position is filled, more details will be forthcoming. We will be looking to hire some Bus monitors—so if you’re interested in doing this, please call the Unit Office.
Transportation for practices after dismissal time will be available from the Elementary school.
We are saddened by the loss of our Teen Reach program! Please let our legislators know that this is a much needed program for our students.
We will be implementing Accelerated Reader, Study Island, and KeyTrain (High School Program) for our students this year.
We have acquired 24 (new to us—but used) computers from the government. We will be able to have 3 labs in the 5-12 Building.
Computer classes will be given to our elementary students on a regular basis!
We have purchased a new reading series for the K-5. We are really looking forward to these great new materials!
The move has been almost completed—a great thank you to the custodian crew and some great summer help!
The high school has virtually become a hard hat area with all of the construction for the Heating/Air-Conditioning installation.

A-C Central is now on Twitter, a micro-blogging service that allows us to communicate through an official channel without relying on anything more than a cell phone. Many of you are aware of the building evacuation which took place on Friday, 15 May 09 in Ashland. Twitter could have been used during the evacuation to update the community as events unfolded. Twitter will also give us an avenue for communicating when events happen that do not quite warrant a broadcast message, but still effect many people, such as sporting schedule changes.
We encourage you to learn more about the service and how you may subscribe.
