Dear ACGC Community,

You are warmly invited to step into the past and experience history like never before at our ACGC 6th Grade Living Wax Museum on Thursday, March 19, 2026, from 1:30–3:30 PM in the ACGC Theatre.

Our 6th grade students have poured their hearts into this incredible project—researching, designing, and creating detailed tri-fold displays and costumes to fully bring their historical figures and events to life. As you walk through the museum, you’ll encounter students “frozen in time,” ready to share the powerful stories of the people and moments that have shaped Minnesota’s history.

This is more than just a project—it’s a celebration of creativity, learning, and storytelling. From influential leaders and innovators to unforgettable historical events, our students have worked diligently to portray their characters with authenticity, pride, and passion.

We invite all community members, families, and friends to come support our students and see firsthand the hard work, dedication, and imagination they have invested in this experience.

Come explore, learn, and be inspired by the voices of Minnesota’s past—brought to life by the leaders of tomorrow.

We hope to see you there!

“Focus on the positive” is a pretty common piece of advice. Sure, there are things that may not be perfect, but focusing too much on what isn’t going well amplifies the negative and often results in good things getting missed. That’s one reason why Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is used in schools to not only improve the social, emotional, and academic outcomes for students, but also to create a strong sense of community built on doing the right thing.

Check out more about this program and how it makes a difference in our latest story!
