ACE Family Newsletter
June 2020
Dear Roadrunner Families,
I am extremely excited to share some news with you as Perales Elementary prepares for our Kick-Off as an ACE campus in the Fall of 2020. We are hard at work bringing together team members ready to get breakthrough results for our kids because they deserve it. In addition, our building is currently under construction with improvements to our classrooms, outdoor learning space, and exterior. A strong start will lead us to a BREAKTHROUGH year for the Perales community.
In appreciation,
Teresa A. Silva
Principal

What is ACE?
Accelerating Campus Excellence is launching in August 2020. Edgewood ISD's Accelerating Campus Excellence (ACE) program is a new approach to education, which focuses on strategic staffing and student support.
ACE first identifies specific staff members who will best fit the individual needs of students at participating campuses. It then ensures every student is supported academically, socially, and emotionally in order to reach his or her greatest potential.

Edgewood ISD's ACE program is an adaptation from school districts across Texas. Since the program's implementation in 2015, ACE schools have experienced increased academic performance in core content areas, improved attendance, and a stronger parent-school connection.
