School Spirit

I just want to take a moment to talk about school spirit. The last 4 days prove that school spirit is alive and well at AHS. The students have taken the challenge of competing against each other for points and a spirit stick. More than anything, it is about pride and having fun. Our students took that attitude and ran with it. From the dress-up days to the daily competitions, the kids really did a great job. As always, there are those who were more invlolved than others, but many participated in one fasion or another. The dodgeball tournament and the male-cheerleader competition will stick in my memory as two very funny moments from this year's homecoming activities. Kudos to the Student Council and Ms. Rene Blank for a great homecoming week so far. Tonight is the bonfire, located behind the school next to the library. On Friday, we will have our annual obstacle course. This year we will use the sports complex for the venue. And do not forget the FOOTBALL GAME on Friday. The South Fulton Rebels come to town for a big game with PLAYOFF implications......wow! - 4 years of foootball and we are talking about making a run at the playoffs. Top that off with a volleyball team that is on a very nice roll and you can see why school spirit is alive this fall at AHS.
