Please give a big Athens Bluejay welcome to our MS/HS Science Student Teacher this year! Hi, I'm Mrs. Thunder. I'm from Wausau and now live there with my husband next to his family's farm. I love spending time outside and crafting whenever possible. I'm looking forward to getting to know the community of Athens and gaining experience teaching in a rural setting. I enjoy seeing the strong relationships that are built between students, faculty, and parents! I'm excited to get creative in the classroom no matter the circumstances that arise!

Calling all avid sewers and seamstresses: The Athens band program needs your help to make full band rehearsals possible! In addition to the preventative measures already taken for this coming school year, there are more ways still to make music rehearsals even safer for your child. According to a study led by University of Colorado Boulder, students will need to have a covering for the bell of their instrument to prevent aerosol particles from escaping. One of the most effective materials for a cover like this is close-weave cotton (Ex: 300 count bed sheets). If you can support the Athens band by making these “instrument masks,” please contact Mr. Puffer at spuffer@athens1.org, so our students can enjoy making music for you once again!
