Forming Knowledgeable, Virtuous American Citizens

House System

The House System at ACA is for students in grades 6-8. Upon entering 6th grade, each student is sorted into one of four houses: Alexandria, Carthage, Constantinople, or Damascus. The House System is designed to create a sense of community, foster camaraderie, and provide opportunities for leadership and growth.

Each house seeks to win the house cup at the end of the year by accumulating the most house points. House points are awarded for acts of virtue to individual students and to houses for winning weekly competitions. Not only does the winning house receive a prize for being victorious, but the student with the most individual points at the end of the year also receives a prize.
