Athens City Schools

Athens City Schools staff are attending the 2026 Coordinated School Health Institute, networking with state leaders and districts across Tennessee. The team is collaborating on school health, nutrition, family engagement, safety, physical education, school nursing, transportation, school attendance, and other supports to help students stay healthy and excel in the classroom.#ExcellenceIsACS

Athens City Intermediate School has been given the honor of being a Purple Star school for their continued efforts to support students who are a part of Military Families. This morning an assembly was held where students spoke about sacrifices made and the hard parts of family being away. The highlight of the assembly was the reunification of a student with his father, Sergeant First Class Richard Dukes. Thank you to all Military Families for your service.

Athens City Schools will host a systemwide Family Engagement Fun Fair Night on Tuesday, March 10, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Athens City Intermediate School. An evening fun and learning for the whole family! #ExcellenceIsACS
