4th/5th Grade Academic Team In late October, each fourth and fifth grade student receives an invitation to
join the Academic Team. Students are expected to attend at least one
practice each week from November – March. Practices give students the
opportunity to enhance individual skills while contributing to a group
endeavour. During the practice sessions, the team members learn the rules
for different events and expand their knowledge of Kentucky’s Core Content
through exploration and review activities. Team members with excellent
attendance, exemplary behavior, and improved statistics are given first
consideration during the competition selection process.

events, plot their competition strategy, and expand their knowledge of
Kentucky’s Core Content through exploration and review activities. Team
members are expected to attend practice each week from late September
until the Governor’s Cup Competitions in January and February. Team mem-
bers with excellent attendance, exemplary behavior, and improved statistics
are given first consideration during the competition selection process. After
Governor’s Cup, the team takes a short break. Then an optional spring prac-
tice schedule is set for team members interested in any of the competitions
held in the spring.

Anchorage Young Musicians Anchorage Young Musicians is expanding and will be meeting at school! The
purpose of this club is to encourage music development and performance
opportunities for instrumental music students at Anchorage school and in
the Anchorage community. Students often are more motivated to practice
when they have a performance to prepare for so this is a great way to
motivate them (and get the most out of your investment in their musical
education too)!

Schedule 2016-2017 program includes:
Concerts—Concerts are designed to be a fun way for music students to
perform in an non-threatening and encouraging environment. The program is
designed to last 45 minutes or less so young children (and parents) can enjoy
the performances in a shorter format. Beginner, intermediate and advanced
students are mixed into the program so young children can be encouraged by
the more advanced students. The program ends with a performance by an
established adult musician! All instruments at all levels are encouraged to
participate. Concerts are being held at Owl Creek Country Club and
Anchorage Music teachers are also encouraged to bring students to create a
community event. Refreshments will be served.
This year's concerts are planned for:
Holiday Concert 12/3/16 2pm Owl Creek Country Club
Spring Concert 4/22/17 3pm Owl Creek Country Club
Community Service—There will be several opportunities for community
service such as performing at nursing homes and other community events.
Opportunities to perform at school based events are also possible.
Town Hall Meetings—Club members will have the opportunity to participate in
quarterly after school town hall meeting with Dr. Lightbourne for another op-
portunity for fun and informal performance.

didn't want to stop coming after their week of camp was over! It has evolved
into an after school art program that is a great outlet for children. Each class
has a balance of creative exploration and art education. Children will thor-
oughly enjoy learning, exploring, observing, and creating in an inclusive, in-
spiring and no pressure at-home environment.
