Dear ACS Students, ACS Knit Club needs your help. We are currently creating a large scale blanket with stitched squares as we hope to raise awareness of any social justice issue you feel need to be addressed in our school community and/or the world. We will create awareness with QR codes with yarn display in the month of June: this is called yarn bombing. Despite its name, it has gained popularly around the world as a social justice platform for change. Give your voice and educate others! Email Mrs. Cameron with issue you wish to share with your fellow Lions.
