Superintendent Food Council tasting round 4...What an amazing experience. We are all excited to see how our menu will change here at GISD next year!

Some memebers of the Superintendent Food Council are visiting Athens ISD. We are sampling food items from different districts who use 3rd party providers who may be bidding on our FSMC contract.

Thank you for everybody who came out to support Parent University. Great pizza and great fellowship. There are so many great ways for parents to be involved, including PTO, AG boosters, athletic boosters, band boosters, and more.
