Seventh-grade Advanced English students enjoyed a performance of “A Christmas Carol” at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival on Wednesday! Prior to attending, students read an excerpt of the classic tale in class and made “Christmas Carol”-themed ornaments. It was the perfect experience to get us all in the Christmas spirit!

Classy Aggie Tip-Off Day for Girls Basketball and 8th Grade Boys Basketball
This week FOCUS and Peer Helpers joined forces for our Substance Awareness and Prevention Campaign that encouraged students to reach their American Dream!
7th grade FOCUS members created meaningful posters to welcome everyone on Monday morning and 8th grade FOCUS members shared information they received from the FOCUS rally to all 7th and 8th grade classes this Friday.
Peer Helpers started each day with a drug awareness message over the morning announcements, provided each homeroom with campaign wristbands, and the opportunity to sign a drug-free promise that was posted outside of each homeroom door.
On Thursday, the Under Age, Under Arrest Program presented to the entire student body with information and encouragement to make wise choices at every opportunity. We can not thank the ABC Board, Police Force, and Mothers Against Drunk Driving enough for taking the time to speak to our students.
We are so proud of our students!
