A few weeks ago, we celebrated one of the most magical days at Acequia—Sorting Day! Each student had the chance to pick an envelope at random, revealing the house they would join. Whether it was Reveur, Isibindi, Amistad, or Altruismo, the energy was electric as students were welcomed into their houses with cheers, excitement, and most importantly, love. This day was extra special for every single person, creating memories that will last a lifetime. While we may have four unique houses, we are ONE school, united in purpose and spirit. 🌟
Thank you to everyone who helped make this day unforgettable. The Acequia family grows stronger together, and we can't wait to see all the amazing things our students will achieve as part of their houses! ❤️💙🖤💚
