Our thoughts and prayers are with the family members and friends of Mr. Bill Hyams. Mr. Hyams was a dedicated and loyal volunteer for many years with Clarksville Academy. Many of you may have purchased a game ticket from him at our sports complex gate or at our basketball games. He also volunteered many hours listening to our Lower School students read. He was kind, fun-loving and filled with patience and admiration for our faculty, staff and students. His presence will be missed, but we know his joy-filled spirit will continue to make us smile for the years ahead.

Visitation for Mr. Hyams will be held at McReynolds, Nave, and Larson Funeral Home on Madison Street on Friday, March 4, 2016, from 4:00 P.M. until 8:00 P.M. and Saturday, March 5, 2016, from 9:00 A.M. until the time of the funeral service, which will begin at 11:00 A.M.

If you would like to make a donation to Clarksville Academy in Mr. Hyams’ memory, please visit our Business Office or mail your donation to Clarksville Academy, Attn: Sally Allen, 710 North Second Street, Clarksville, Tennessee 37040. You may also submit your donation through Marketplace at www.marketplace.clarksvilleacademy.com.

FUSE

While learning about Early European Settlements in the New World, 4th grade FUSE students visited England, France, and Spain using their Barefoot Atlas and Google Earth apps.  By visiting these areas, students were able to learn more about each country that began settling the North American continent, and what life is like for them today.

 

4th grade FUSE students participated in a fun number cube activity as they practiced their weekly Spelling words!  By identifying their six most challenging words, students were able to narrow their practice to where improvement was needed most.

 

Dr. Eve Rice and several APSU Nursing students visited Mrs. Meek’s 4th grade Wellness class. The APSU students taught a lesson on being a Healthy Fit Kid! Students enjoyed participating in stretching activities, dancing & a push up & sit up competition with the winners getting a basketball & football. All students were also given bottles of water.
