Message from Bridges:

Last semester, we challenged the student body to reflect on their views of others/actions towards others with quotes from Martin Luther King Jr. This year, we would like to challenge the student body again to step out of their comfort zone and experience a different perspective/culture during Global Diversity Awareness Month. For the entire month of October visit any of the restaurants, stores and events listed on this document, and log your experiences on this google form. Each form submission is counted as 1 point, points will be gathered by advisory. The advisory with the most points (form submissions) will receive an advisory breakfast from Bridges!

We hope you enjoy exploring the different communities and events in and around Athens, GA!

Congratulations to juniors Kate Sullivan & HT Garrardfor being named

Spartans of the Week! (Week of September 23):

“Both Kate and HT have had tremendous starts to the season. Kate ran a PR on her first race of the season then followed that up with a strong 6th place finish at the Carrollton Invitational. HT ran a PR at our last home meet – finishing in 1st place!

We are excited to see how Kate and HT progress as the season moves on!”
