Middle school students will have the opportunity to see The Giver at the Athena Grande on Thursday, Sept. 11. Students may "purchase" a ticket with the "money" in their Lancer checking account. (Students will not have to pay real money to attend.) The Athena Grande will provide popcorn and drinks for all! Following the movie, the group will head to the Athens outdoor recreation area on East State St. to play ball, relax, and eat sack lunches provided by the school (or students may pack their own). Students will receive their first "paycheck", which is based on midterm grades, on Monday, Sept. 8! Permission slips must be turned in by Tuesday, Sept. 9.
