Senior Survey: Where will ACC be in 2049?

As seniors, we’re looking ahead to the future, but also remembering where we have come from. We’re going on to the next chapter of our lives, and Aurora Central is doing the same. In the glorious past forty years, we have been part of three different school communities, and we have called both sides of Aurora our home. So now, in the spirit of embracing what’s to come, we’ve turned to the seniors and asked them, “What are your hopes for ACC’s next forty years?”

Kevin Webster: “My hopes for ACC are that the schools will continue to improve itself in regards to academics and athletics, and win a state championship or two.”

Shannon McDowell: “I hope for ACC to become a more nationally competitive school with more AP class offerings, more diversity, more choice electives, and more student acceptances at the most prestigious colleges in the country.”

Josue Morales: “That it expands and becomes more known. And to own in sports.”

Steven Kuk: “I hope that ACC continues to grow and improve in both sports and education, and that it becomes an even better place than it is now when I see my kids or grandkids graduate.”

Garrett McCarthy: “I would hope to see ACC change its philosophy in regards to admission, placing more emphasis on middle school academics and promise. This would provide more stability to the student body and possible allow for better facilities later on.”

Emily Kawa: “That the cross country, track, and dance teams continue doing well, and hopefully our other sports get better.”

Jose Ocon: “My hope for the next forty years is that one of our sports teams will win a state title.

Catherine Pauls: “My hope for ACC’s next forty years is to continue in the excellent education it provides and focus more on it, and less on athletics.”

Ethan Romba: “A campus in space.”

Wherever we are (whatever planet we may be on), our hope is that Central will continue to share its message that no matter what faith you are, where you’ve come from, where you’re going, we are a community tied to one another. We have a connected past that will lead us into the future with this message of love that burns brightly in the hearts of Chargers everywhere, for all time.
