Reimbursements
Team leaders can submit reimbursements for session supplies.
Supplies include small supplies for sessions, snacks and pizza (depending on team size). Teams have a budget of $250 for the year. For larger expenses, please email with details and the board will review the request.

Field Trips
Teams must notify the Affiliate Director about a field trip at least 2 weeks in advance. This is just to make sure we have time to get all the necessary paperwork completed and check database status!
Students need to be in the ACE database with a completed ACE Consent (as they should already be anyway). Students ALSO must provide a signed field trip permission slip (found HERE)
and any paperwork for the site visits. The school most likely will require a permission slip as well.
As a reminder, ACE mentors cannot transport students themselves and ACE doesn't provide transportation to field trips - if this is an issue, please email.

Check Team Lists
Prior to each session, Team leaders must check the list of approved mentors and students in the database.
By Early March, all students who are active must be noted in order to participate in the Student Presentation Nights
Students who aren't in the database without a signed consent on file CANNOT attend ACE sessios.
All ACE Mentors must be approved to attend sessios (please check with ACE DC about new mentors)

ACE Mentor Tools
There are a ton of resources on ACE National's Tools site.
Please log into your ACE profile and check the menu on the left - you will see "ACE Mentor Tools" and will find the log in information.
Please check out these resources - there are activities, videos, and mentor trainings!
