Congratulations to freshman Shelby Lander for being named SPARTAN OF THE WEEK (week of February 15):

“Shelby has been such a great addition to our basketball cheer team this year. She has been totally committed, never complains, and always does exactly what she needs to for herself and her team. She is always prepared, ready to cheer, and does everything with a big smile on her face! Shelby has jumped right in and shown how much she loves and cares for the Athens Academy Spartans! Shelby is kind, thoughtful, and always looking to improve herself at practices and games. We are so blessed to have Shelby as one of our Spartan Cheerleaders and are so proud of the improvements she has made this season! Way to go, Shelby!“ – Kelsie Webb, Head Coach, Varsity Cheer

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.

Please note we have shifted to a by-appointment model for spring semester. Email mathclub@athensacademy.org to set up your first meeting!

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!

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!
