Be sure you check out the SpartanNet post about course descriptions for second semester! You may start signing up tomorrow!

Are you interested in writing for The Spartan Review but don’t know where to start? Sign up for Ms. Evans’ Honors Journalism course! You’ll learn to write basic news articles, restaurant/culture reviews, profiles, op-eds, and more. Open to grades 9-12. Meets during Block 8. Contact Mrs. Bowles or Ms. Evans with questions.

Attention readers! Due to overwhelmingly good participation in the last two book club meetings, The Spartan Book Club will split for our next meeting. 9th and 10th graders have voted and will read The House on the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune. 11th and 12th graders will read The Push by Ashley Audrain. Our next meeting will be the week of December 6-9th. Please see Mrs. Street with any questions and happy reading!

YLA Applications

Youth Leadership Athens is a premier leadership and civic engagement program for high school sophomores and juniors (and this year seniors) that brings together teens from all of our Athens-area schools to learn, work, and explore together.

Applications are being accepted now through November 30th. The application process is simple and fully online to make these easy for our students, parents, and references.

We are looking for those teens who are leaders, emerging leaders, and prospective leaders. We have many outstanding Athens Academy grads among our alumni and hope to continue that tradition with your current students.

There is no limit to how many students from a school may participate and our goal is to create a class with students in different stages of their leadership journey.

Katie Scott

Katie has done such a great job building her skill and talent. It’s been fun to watch her improve with each piece she’s done. She is recently taking on oil painting and is doing great with that as well. I’m excited to see her progress throughout the next couple of years.
