IAAF 5K

IAAF 5K
When: Sat, June 8

Once again the Arby’s Foundation has chosen us as recipients, so we really need to show how much we value their donation by signing up for this year’s IAAF 5K (I Am a Father 5K), which will be held on Saturday, June 8, 2024. We are asking all BIA stakeholders to register. And it would be great to have a great showing at the walk, as well. (Even if you don’t walk, you will receive a t-shirt and commemorative 10th Anniversary medal). Last year, Mr. Christian was called to the stage to receive the generous $7,000 donation. This year, we know we will once again be receiving a monetary donation, which will directly benefit the teaching and learning at BIA! It would be great to have as many BIA stakeholders present to show our appreciation and support for this organization and event!
This year’s race also coincides with David Manuel’s 10th year as a recipient of a transplant, so he is super excited about the event. For those that were here last year, he came and spoke to us in the cafeteria about his journey.
Mr. Christian has created a team called “Team BIA” and would love for you all BIA stakeholders to join him in participating in the 5K. The cost is $30, and you will receive a t-shirt, a medal, and a goodie bag full of healthy items. I hope you can join, but if not, consider donating to this worthy cause that in turn supports BIA!

Atlanta Public Schools Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl is an exciting annual competition where students from across the district showcase their knowledge of selected books. Teams compete in a quiz-bowl format, answering questions that test their comprehension and recall. The event promotes a love of reading, teamwork, and friendly competition, encouraging students to engage deeply with literature.
Each elementary school will compete in a cluster competition. The top two elementary teams from each cluster will move on to compete in the APS district competition. As always, APS Library Media Services will cover the fees for all APS traditional schools. All other schools will submit their own fees to the state. The APS Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl will be held on January 31, 2026.
