Mental Health Services Opt-in

"Huntsville City Schools offers mental health services for your child(ren) in a variety of ways. In compliance with Alabama law, parents and/or guardians must opt-in for their children to receive mental health services each school year – please note that mental health includes typical school guidance services. You may choose for your child to receive some or all of the available services. Without this form, most mental health and guidance services will not be provided to your child unless there is an imminent threat to the health of the student or others or when your child meets with guidance counselors solely related to course selection, course registration, or similar activities."

ACADEMY CHILDREN'S THEATER SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES!

Hello Friend of AAA/Valued Community Partner,


The Academy for Academics and Arts Middle School is proud to present our 2023-2024 season! These productions feature approximately 90 middle school students as cast members and technical crew. Did you know that AAA is the only school in the state of Alabama recognized as a Premier Community for Theatre Education? The Educational Theatre Association (EdTA) recognizes individual schools that demonstrate outstanding achievement in their efforts to provide theatre access and education to all students. As a Title 1 Magnet School, we are fortunate to be able to provide this inclusive quality theatre experience to these students and the community! Our students are thriving both academically and in the arts because of supporters like you! We are asking for your support as a sponsor/contributor. No amount is too great or small. Will you help?
