REFERENDUM UPDATE: If approved, the referendum tax impact decreases due to additional state aid. Why? On October 15, our District was informed of additional state aid that results in a reduction to the property tax mill rate. As a result, the tax impact of an approved referendum has decreased for area taxpayers. Learn more on our referendum website: https://www.athens1.org/page/referendum

The fourth graders had a great time hiking part of the Ice Age trail and learning more about our state’s history. It was a beautiful hike and it was a great experience to see the different landscapes created by the glaciers. We also took in the beautiful fall weather and foliage while we learned about the various leaves that come from different trees.

The first of seven Bedazzling Blue Jay Family Fun Nights is quickly approaching! Come to the Athens Elementary School (AES) Gym from 6:00 - 7:00pm on Monday, October 17, 2022 for our presentation on Effective Dinner Table Talk. It will be a delicious delight!

Mrs. Hartwig’s preschoolers have been learning about the letter Aa, apples, and all about the season of Fall.

Kindergarten students were using post-it notes to determine how many words were heard in spoken sentences. For example, they wisely placed four post-its on the table, complete with finger spaces in between them, for the sentence "My coat is warm." Then, when asked where the word coat was, they could point to the second post-it note. These beginner skills will lead to literacy greatness! The post-its also were a hit to decorate faces before heading to the recycle bin.

It's School Board Appreciation Week! Thank you to the dedicated team in Athens who help the district thrive. You are appreciated!

Basketball time!!
