Located in Lunenburg County on the beautiful Aspotogan Peninsula, ACES sits on a seven-acre site at Mill Cove Park (the former CFS Mill Cove). We are midway between Halifax and Bridgewater in the Hubbards area. Halifax, approximately 50 km east of us, is the capital of Nova Scotia. The village of Chester is 18 km west, on the way towards Mahone Bay, Lunenburg and Bridgewater. 
 
Students attend ACES from Primary to grade 5, then go to Chester Area Middle School for grades 6-9 and Forest Heights Community School for grades 10-12. 
 
 
The Aspotogan Consolidated Elementary School (ACES) officially opened in September of 2000.  
 
The teaching staff consists of a blend of experienced and early career teachers and teacher assistants. Support staff are experienced and efficient. Several staff members reside in the community, while others live no more than 45 minutes away.
