Celebrating Accomplishments

 

Aside from supporting various competitive academic teams with its financial support, the ACE Foundation seeks to publicize and celebrate the teams' accomplishments. In addition to assisting in the publication of news stories in the Trumbull Times and Connecticut Post, this website's Teams in the News page features reprints as well as various other articles and photos covering teams' activities.

The foundation has also hosted and subsidized a Celebration Banquet for all team members and their families, as well as the teams' advisors, toward the end of the school year for the past three years. An article appearing in the Trumbull Times that provides additional information about these festive evenings is posted below.

Some of the notable accomplishments over the past three years of teams/groups receiving ACE Foundation support are noted below. Unless otherwise noted, these are based at Trumbull High School.
