*To All Academic Choice Students and Friends!!*
The Academic Choice Leadership Club is happy to announce that we are
hosting a Halloween Movie Night on October 28th at 8:30pm. We understand
that distance learning has been very difficult for many of us and that
Halloween this year won’t be the same and so, to try and promote some
normalcy in our student life, we have this movie night! All Academic Choice
students are welcome to attend and even bring students outside of AC.
Please RSVP at aclc.carrd.co/ and/or DM us @ac.leadership on Instagram.
We hope to see you there!

*Pacific BoyChoir Academy*
On November 13th at 7:00 P.M, ASB leadership will be hosting a virtual
concert with the Pacific BoyChoir Academy as a fundraiser for the Berkeley
Sexual Harm Survivors Support Group. This Support Group is an organization
that dedicates itself to supporting survivors through hosting free sessions
facilitated by a trained therapist to survivors of sexual harm. Due to the
session being free the group requires funds to help pay for the therapist’s
facilitation.

The PBA is a 2x Grammy award winning choir group that has toured different
parts of the world giving performances to the likes of Joe Montana, Chabad
Telethon, and Zach Galifianakis. The concert will feature music from Kanye
West, The Beatles, Oasis, The Weekend, and many more artists and genres.

The tickets to the virtual concert can be purchased here
