      <image:caption>One of the goals of the Alexander City School Education Foundation (ACSEF) is to support programs and technology that is needed in the Alexander City Schools but is not yet funded. Recently the Alexander City Schools (ACS) made upgrades to computers and software in all five Alexander City Schools, providing every student with a Chromebook or iPad. In the past five years, ACSEF has assisted ACS with this project and contributed over $500,000 to technology and maintenance and repair. We gladly support technology in ACS; technology transforms the learning experience for students, teaching them how to code, be more creative and be more connected. Technology teaches students how to better collaborate across teams and with their instructors. ACSEF is a proud partner!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The driving force behind the Russell Forest Run is to help provide educational tools for the students in the Alexander City School System. Russell Forest Run and race sponsors have teamed with the Alexander City Education Foundation to host a challenging race, raise a few dollars for the students, and let runners have a great race in one of the most beautiful areas in the Southeast – the Russell Forest. From start to finish, the Russell Forest Run measures 5K and 10K and carries runners over rolling hills on sand, clay, and gravel roads that were designed for bicycles and electric cars. The scenic route starts at Russell Crossroads, takes runners near Kob’s Knob, up to Heaven Hill, and back to the finish line at Russell Crossroads. Runners from across the nation claim this race as one of their top destination runs.</image:caption>
