Posted Thursday, September 5
Thank you to all of the students who were present today for our first meeting of the year. Special thanks to parent Ritwik Chatterjee, a long time supporter of the Academic Bowl team, who was also in attendance. Mr. R brought candy (always appreciated) and also coached the team on competition rules and competitive strategies.
I am planning to make most of our team announcements on this site, so please check the bulletin board after each practice for updated information.
I think we are going to have an exciting and fun year. I look forward to seeing everyone at practice next week!

- This year's practice meetings will be scheduled for 4:30-5:30 every Thursday throughout the year. Please plan for students to depart HMS no later than 5:45. Meeting cancellations will be posted on this site and on the school's morning announcements.
- We are registered to compete in the "Bulldog Brain Brawl"at Chamblee Middle School on October 26. Please set aside the date!
- Collection of dues will begin at next week's practice, Thursday, September 12. Most tournaments charge entry fees of approximately $75 per team, so we request that dues be paid in a one-time payment of $50, which should cover the cost of entry fees for the entire year. Please contact me if you would like to make special arrangements for payment. Our goal is to collect all dues no later than Thursday, September 26.
