The ACAD Daily Wednesday, 2.3.21!

Hey, You! Yeah, You!

Please, Please, Please make good decisions! Take care of yourself and your friends!

We want to stay together IN PERSON and it depends on us!

There is a statewide tornado drill today at 9:00. We will NOT follow it. So, if you hear sirens, just ignore them!

When you see Coach Olson today, congratulate him on his 100th win that happened last night at the Prince game!

February is Black History Month. The month honors African American people’s rich range of experiences, struggles and achievements throughout history and into the modern day. Each day in February, we will be sharing a couple of quotes from civil rights icons.

“The cost of liberty is less than the price of repression.”
—W.E.B. Du Bois

“In recognizing the humanity of our fellow beings, we pay ourselves the highest tribute.”
—Thurgood Marshall, first African American U.S. Supreme Court member

Don’t forget you must sign in and out even if you have parent permission to leave! You will serve detention if you forget. We need to know if you are on campus. Thank you!!!

If you need the links to the at-home or return request forms, please email Ms. Rorey: trorey@athensacademy.org. Remember that you should expect to wait 24 hours before you are approved by the school. Therefore, do not submit the request late in the evening or early in the morning and assume that you will immediately have permission to attend online or return to school. Thank you!

Cleaning Supplies and Masks Drive

for our friends at the Boys and Girls Club & Downtown Academy!

Competition ends THIS FRIDAY!

The first grade to fill their tubs (in the SA Myers Gallery) with cleaning supplies, wipes and masks wins a dress down day! The grade that has the most at the end of the month wins donuts!

Please help us stay healthy so we can continue to be together!

Thank you so much for being diligent about wearing your masks! A few of you are still having trouble and for clarification, here is the process for you:

1. A faculty member will give you a warning.

2. After the warning, that faculty member will infract you and you will serve detention. This will be communicated to your parents as well.

3. After you serve detention, if another infraction occurs, you, your advisor, and your parents will meet with Mrs. Zalac and there will be escalated consequences.

Clubs meet Wednesdays 9:15-9:45! Look out for an email from your club leaders!
