ACPS School Volunteers & Partners in Education

I can’t believe it’s already been two weeks since our Volunteer of the Year event! Please find photos from the celebration here: www.alachuaschools.net/o/acps/page/voy2026

We are so thankful for all the incredible volunteers who help make our schools shine brighter every single day.

Today, we hosted a special book giveaway at Duval Early Learning. Thanks to the generous support of the Gainesville Charitable Foundation, every child received a book to encourage more reading at home. To make story time even more engaging, each student also received a cuddly stuffed friend or bookworm to take home and read with. We are grateful for the opportunity to share the joy of reading with these bright young learners, and for everyone who donated the bookworms.
