Students in Audrey Haley’s class at Central Athens Elementary create a fun chemical reaction by introducing yeast to a mix of hydrogen peroxide, dish soap and food coloring. The yeast breaks the hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen gas, with the escaping oxygen creating foamy bubbles. It’s a great way to learn science. Pictured (from left) are third-graders Jazmine Culver, Rosaisela Barcenas, Daleyza Rodriguez and Analyise Lee.
Supplemental Special Education Services (SSES) are $1,500 one-time, on-line grants for eligible parents/caregivers of students served through special education.

🎅🎨 What talent we have at AISD! Central Athens Elementary fifth-grader Isabella Knigge is spreading holiday cheer with her fantastic artwork of Ol' Saint Nick. It was chosen from among several student submissions for the front of Athens ISD’s annual Christmas card. Isabella said she loves to draw and created her winning submission at home in half an hour. “Wow, you did that?” asked a classmate upon seeing the finished product. She did, indeed. Thanks, Isabella! #HornetNation
