Spartan of the Week - Popi Marquez

“Popi Marquez is this week’s Spartan of the Week for her dedicated service producing media viewed by thousands on numerous webcasts for the past 3 years. Starting as a Sophomore, Popi was our 1st sideline reporter which required her to conduct research for prospective interviews, capture and edit media, and handle “live” segments as they “popped” up. Several of her interviews included a pregame interview with Coach Jeff Saturday, an NFL Pro Bowl center, ESPN sports analyst, and then coach of the Hebron Christian Lions. Popi has also conducted several interviews with ACAD football and basketball coaches, as well as numerous alumni like Houston Gaines ’13, Kaleb Bryant ’16, Ned McGregor ’11, and Rahul Singh ’07.  She’s currently serving as co-president of the Media Production club and is hoping to pursue a degree in broadcast journalism. Go Spartans!“ –Mike Callinan, Webcast

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.

12th Man’s Theme is Alexander’s Army

You may wear camo or Spartan Spirit today!

 

Mask Optional

 
1. Respect decisions: From Mr. Thorsen’s letter to our community:
 
“Many students and adults will choose to continue to wear a mask indoors and we want to respect and support these decisions. Some are excited for holiday guests, travel or mindful of a loved one at home with health concerns. The reasons will vary and we want to provide a safe and positive environment for all.”
 
2. Please carry a mask with you (or in your bag):
 
We will still need to wear a mask in large gatherings. Make sure you bring one to the PH on Tuesday and Wednesday.
 
3. You may have had a sneaky beard under your mask, please make sure you are clean shaven. Seniors may have beards if they are well-kept.

“Wendy has brought such a positive, bright spirit to our JV Cheerleading team this season. She comes into every practice and game with a big smile on her face, ready to cheer on the Spartans, and to help her team in any way she can. Wendy is always ending our practices with uplifting compliments to encourage her teammates and she is always the first to volunteer for anything she can. Some may have seen Wendy selling her heart out at our Spirit Table on Friday nights, and she has been a driving force in our spirit item sales. She has volunteered and taken extra shifts to work the Spirit Table just because she loves being involved and spreading spirit at Athens Academy. We are so lucky to have Wendy in our program and we look forward to watching her grow as an Athens Academy Cheerleader during the basketball cheer season! Great job, Wendy!!“ –Kelsie Webb, Head Coach, Cheerleading
