The LC performance begins at 8:45am. Doors will open at 8:30am. Please be considerate of our neighbors when finding a place to park your vehicle. Also remember that parking is not permitted on Heritage Drive between Briarcliff Road and the school between 8am and 3pm.

On Sunday, January 19, the Chinese Business Association of Atlanta (CBA) held their annual Lunar New Year Gala, and GLOBE 8th grade student, Dillan Pruitt, was one the MC's alongside a highschooler.

The event was attended by hundreds of influential Chinese businesses and organizations who support Chinese culture and business in Atlanta. The GLOBE Academy is proud of Dillan for representing GLOBE at this important event as the only middle schooler amongst high schoolers and adults!

For families, there are several Lunar New Year Events throughout Atlanta, such as the Decatur Lunar New Year Festival and the Stone Mountain Lunar New Year Festival.

On the Decatur Lunar New Year Festival website, you can also vote on your favorite Year of the Snake Drawing - special thanks to GLOBE students Vivian Rho and Juliet Rho for representing with their drawings!

Group band and winter sports team photos will be re-scheduled due to Thursday's Independent Learning Day. Please look out for further information in the coming week(s).

Band News:

Congratulations to Caia Lauterbach on being accepted into the Athena Honor Band 2025. This all-girls virtual honor band experience will connect Caia with like-minded band students from across the country. Caia’s nomination was accepted out of more than 450 other students’. We know that you will represent the GLOBE community well!

8th grade Podcasts

The 8th grade ELA classes recorded podcasts on debates or social issues using recording equipment. They wrote their own scripts, edited their podcasts, and crafted images to put on a student created website. They all did an awesome job! We are sharing the website and podcasts here. We hope the GLOBE community enjoys listening to them. Kudos to the students who helped to create the website, they are credited in the footer of the web page. If your child chose not to participate in the website, please email Mr. Tim if you’d like to listen to their podcast.

Our spring enrichment program will begin this coming Monday, January 27. There are several enrichments at both campuses that have room for a few more students.

Check out the school website and register your student before Monday. If you have any questions, please email: ecp@theglobeacademy.net.
