Hello Leslie! If I'm too late to submit an update, | completely understand. If you're able to add the update, it's
below:

Things are going well at North City School! Here's a quick update on our school and our partnership with the
City. We are gearing up for Christmas break with students dismissing on Friday at 12:20. It'll be Spring Break

before we know it!

We want to give a BIG thank you to our wonderful firefighters for presenting another wonderful Fire
Prevention Program for our kids! It's something we look forward to each year.

We also want to thank Mr. Fesmire, Mr. Travis, Mrs. Scudder, Mrs. Cardin, our firefighters, and what seemed
like the entire City of Athens employees who joined us last week to present a Christmas movie to our
students. As the students watched the movie, the firefighters and several others popped up the most delicious
popcorn I've had in a while! The kids LOVED the movie, and the adults appreciated the gift of time! Thank you
for taking time out of your busy schedules to come spread some holiday cheer!

As always, we want to thank Officer Hensley who is such a wonderful asset to our school system. She does a
wonderful job of bonding with our students, and she's great at communicating with our schools.

Finally, thank you to all of you and how hard you work for our city. Your diligent work is appreciated! Thank
you for your support of Athens City Schools!
