Clarksville Academy launches “Reading Glasses” drive

 

The Clarksville Academy Key Club has officially kicked off its Fall Reading Glasses Drive.  Anyone wishing to help them reach their goal of 500 pairs may drop glasses off in the main foyer.  If you do not have any glasses to donate, a $5.00 donation enables Key Club to purchase five pairs of new reading glasses for the medical mission in Haiti.

The Academy is also selling season passes for all home sports events are on sale in the Business Office for $50.00 each for students or adults.  This will allow the pass holder admission to all home, regular season games.  Basketball season will begin soon and the pass will save a great deal over regular admission price.Reminder: Seniors need to apply to college now

There are about ten seniors who have not yet applied to a college/university.  I’m asking those students to come by guidance for us to check out the possibilities of the college/university that you would like to attend. The deadline for applications to be turned in is nearing.  Parents and students are welcome to come by, telephone, or email bmazzei@clarksvilleacademy.com.

Seniors who have not taken the ACT/SATshould register for the next test date now.

About Christine Anne Piesyk

    In my 40+ years in media, I have worked as feature writer, investigative reporter, editor, publisher, and film/theater/arts critic. I brought my liberal New England activism to Tennessee several years ago, having finally completed a mid-life undergraduate degree in community organizing and women's studies, and an MA in Interdisciplinary Arts with a concentration in Alzheimer's Disease. I served on Future Search Commissions for two colleges and on homelessness for the City of Northampton (MA), where I applied some of my undergrad work in urban planning and community development. I am a member of FreeThinkers for Peace and Civil Liberties. I am a certified storm spotter just because weather fascinates me. In my spare time (define spare time please?) I am a voracious reader, obsessive movie buff, ballroom dancer, and classical music junkie. I also create sci-fi/fantasy and renaissance costumes. I see life as an ongoing opportunity for learning and adventure (one current interest is mastering preparation of foods from India and Southeast Asia). My dream: a return trip to Machu Picchu. After all, the best things still to come. All posts by Christine Anne Piesyk as presented on Clarksville Online are copyright ©2006, 2007, 2008 to the author.
