* Due to confusion in the community about “Best in Class” certificate awards being a mark of recognition rather than a “win” achievement, ACME sadly regrets it has had to discontinue the practice of sending out certificates to all “Best in Class” entrants. We encourage all educators to continue the practice of recognizing your “Best in Class” winners with your own school and class certificates.
