ACS is the top school in the state for the fifth year in a row in the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge. Our students rock! Overall, our school logged 672,794 reading minutes and finished in the top 40 worldwide. We are so proud of our students, and all of their hard work! Just because summer is over, doesn't mean you should stop reading. Keep up the good work! Representatives from Scholastic visited our campus on November 8th to present us with our official award plaque and banner. A huge thank you goes out to our librarian, Mrs. Doumit, for coordinating this program every year.

ACS would like to welcome Rev. Jeffrey Waldrep, STL, JCL, to our FAMILY! We are so excited that he is joining us as our new Pastor.

Fr. Jeffrey was born and raised in West Point, Mississippi. He received a liberal arts degree from St. Joseph Seminary/College in Covington, LA, a master’s degree in theology and a licentiate degree in systematic theology from St. Mary of the Lake Seminary, Mundelein, IL.

Jeffrey has been blessed to serve in eight parishes, work with Engaged Encounter for 9 years and has been Judicial Vicar for the Diocese of Jackson, MS for the past 9 years. Presently Fr. Jeffrey feels blessed that he can continue his ministry in and through the Tribunal, while also serving a Pastor of Annunciation Parish and Annunciation Catholic School, Columbus, MS.
