The Fulton Science Academy team contributed significantly to the Rivers Alive litter clean-up!  On Saturday Sept 27, we gathered at 9am to begin clean-up of 2 sections of The Big Creek Greenway walking trail in the North Point Mall area.    We picked up an incredible volume trash. Among the most amazing items were: a large microwave, garage door opener, 4 tires, 2 car batteries, 1 rotor, rebar, paint cans, insulating material, and lots of plastic litter.   We also found a very large heavy metal item shaped like a small "e" around 200+ lbs and was about 9' in diameter.  We picked up so much litter, that we had to request a special trash pick up by the City of Alpharetta!  

The Book Club Needs You! We need more student participation in the Book Club for the 6th and 8th graders! Please come and join the fun! Snacks will be provided!The first book club meeting will be on October 23, during lunch hours in the PVO office. The 7th Graders will be reading the book 'The Secret Language of Girls'.

Science Olympiad students had a great lock-in with events like Write it Do it, Compute This and the Pentathalon. Event coaches came to FSA and went over important issues of the events with students.
