One of our youngest students’ favorite events will take place today!! The Halloween Parade! The parade begins at 8:30 at the Harrison Center. We will be able to see the parade best between the Drew Swan building, the Schacht building, and the area between Schacht and Trustees Buildings. You’ll hear their bell ringing as they approach, so please line the buildings or sidewalks along the yellow line to see all of the Spooktacular costumes and some of the sweetest faces on campus! 


 

Día de los Muertos is a popular holiday celebrated on November 1st and 2nd each year. During this time, people pay their respects to family and friends who have passed away. Although the purpose may be solemn, the holiday itself is a joyous celebration of the life that someone had. An ofrenda is created for the person to welcome them home for the festivities, and papel picado is hung up as vibrant decorations.

 
Join Bridges on Wednesday, Nov. 1 after school to create your own string of papel picado!

Caroline Fowler - SOTW

Caroline plays an integral role on Athens Academy’s Flag Football team! Her ability to play on offense, defense, and special teams has proven valuable to the team’s progress this season. She leads the team in tackles and is a great blocker for her teammates. In our 2nd game of the year, her interception against North Oconee was a key play to set the team up for a touchdown drive.  She is at every practice which reflects her team dedication and spirit. Caroline is quick to learn the responsibilities of various positions on the field and does all of this with a great positive attitude and humble demeanor! – Alan Weiler, Head Coach Flag Football
