Athens City Schools

💛Meet your PTO Vice-President💙 Hello all ! My name is Tish Quillen and I am this year’s ACPS PTO vice president. I grew up in Athens and was a product of Athens City Schools. I graduated from ETSU and have worked in the healthcare field for the last 13 years. I have 1 child, Finley (1st grade) in the Athens City Schools. We enjoy spending our time outdoors camping and hiking with friends and family. When we can we also love to travel and learn about the world around us. I look forward to serving as VP this year and can’t wait to see the amazing things we will accomplish together!!

💛Meet your PTO Secretary💙 Hi there! My name is Heidi King and I am this year’s ACPS PTO secretary. I grew up in Athens and attended North City and Athens Junior High (in the olden days!) I graduated from Maryville College with a degree in Theatre and a husband I met on stage there and we just celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary! We have 2 children in the Athens City Schools, Ander (3rd grade) and Silas (1st grade). You will likely see our nerdy family around E. G. Fisher Public Library or The Arts Center where Ander is getting quite a theatre resume (shameless plug for Diary of a Wimpy Kid The Musical, playing this weekend!) I’m excited to continue working to help our community thrive through PTO work for both sides of the big school!

Athens City Intermediate is off to a great start. We are looking forward to a great school year!

ACS CSH and School Nutrition are teaming up to share some helpful info each month. The month of August we are focusing on the benefits of eating Melons. Melons have high high water content, low in calories and provide excellent source of Vitamins A and C. Did you know? One of the most common types of melons is the muskmelon, or cantaloupe. Other melons include the watermelon, honeydew, and canary. It's a great time of year to enjoy a delicious slice of melon.
