About ACE


In April of 2005, a group of Alamance County citizens came together as a “task force” to raise awareness and promote the then “current needs” of our public school system. Some of the issues that caused concern back then still remain today. They include absenteeism, the drop-out rate, lack of teacher resources, and overcrowded schools.

At Alamance Citizens for Education (ACE), we want to help bridge the gap between needs in the schools and resources in the community by offering support to educators. It is our aim to be a catalyst for the community, working together to promote academic achievement in all our classrooms.

ACE operates as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a voluntary board of directors.  We rely 100% on donations and grants from businesses and individuals in the community.
