Underground Spirit Week Day 2: Dress like a student! The teachers were in their best "kid mode" today, channeling their inner middle schooler! The kids weren't quite sure what to think, but the adults were all extremely comfy and had lots of snacks all day! 😉

Attention 7th and 8th graders - don't miss the soccer interest meeting this week!
Today during FLEX students in Ms. Duncan's class had a chance to participate in an Olweus meeting. During their meeting, students brainstormed what a school without bullying would look like and sound like. Many amazing conversations were had school wide!
Tonight, thirty-three sixth grade students were inducted into National Junior Beta Club. Thank you to the teachers and administration who helped make this ceremony so special, and also a big thank you to our Beta Club Officers for leading the way. We are so proud of each and every one of these students and know that they will go on to do great things in the future as they represent Abner Creek Middle School! #leadersofthepack

Congratulations to our orchestra students who were accepted to the Newberry Honors Orchestra Clinic! These students will travel to Newberry College on Dec. 6th and 7th to participate in the clinic.
On Friday, a group of 7th & 8th grade choir students attended the SCMEA Upstate Middle School Choral Clinic at Converse University.
Students prepared music before attending, then spent the day working with a clinician in preparation for a concert in the evening.
We also enjoyed hearing from some college professors about majoring in music in college, as well as hearing a soloist and the Converse Chorale perform.
