Exciting & challenging work with ozobots in Mrs. Barnett's 7th grade enrichment this morning. #ExcellenceIsACMS



We want to thank the McMinn County Education Foundation and the Athens Federal Foundation for their donation to our school caring closet. Athens City Middle School is so appreciative of these organizations and their support of our school community.
