AOC T-Shirt Day: May 15, 2024
The Academic Oversight Committee (AOC) is focused on helping students --- attending Bristol Borough public and parochial schools --- embrace education. The evidence is indisputable that education is further reinforced when students' parents or caregivers, and their community, support and reinforce classroom teachers. Nothing is more important than the education of the next generation.
Just like businesses today recognize their success is achievable by working with partners, the best outcomes for Bristol Borough students happen, when parents, educators, students, and the community --- businesses and citizens --- all work together.
To celebrate the importance of education at Bristol Borough’s public and parochial schools, the AOC is launching the first-ever AOC T-Shirt Day, on Wednesday, May 15th.
Custom AOC T-Shirt Day shirts, designed by Snyder Girotti Elementary School’s STEM educator, Michael Crossan, are available in all sizes to show your support for education.
The Academic Oversight Committee (AOC) was established in 2010 by the Grundy Foundation, which serves as its fiscal monitor. The purpose of the AOC is to provide year-round programs at community learning centers focused on academic enrichment opportunities during non-school hours for students deemed at risk.
The AOC supports three (3) 21st Century Community Learning Centers established for Bristol Borough youth attending public and parochial schools, in grades K through 12, located at Snyder-Girotti Elementary School, St. Mark Parochial School and Bristol Jr/Sr High School. The programs offered help students meet state and local student standards in core academic subjects, such as reading and math; offers students a broad array of enrichment activities that can complement their regular academic programs; and offers literacy and other educational services to the families of participating children.
