Remember our goal is for students to ask family and close friends to renew their magazine subscriptions through QSP and Athens Academy. From these magazine orders, Athens Academy receives 40% of the sale price!

Thank you for your efforts and support!

***QSP Number Correction
The original letter with directions to online ordering listed an incorrect number for Athens Academy Middle School.

When ordering online, please enter: 425003477.

Remember you can renew or order magazines anytime at www.qsp.com.

8th Grade Retreat

What a great way to finish the first week of school!

Eighth grade students spent time after school Friday playing activities, learning more about each other, and meeting with Upper School students. Even after an exhausting first week, the energy and enthusiasm levels were high. A fun time was had by all!
