REMINDER:
Hamilton County Schools representatives will be on campus today, Monday,
December 3 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. in the lobby of the University Center to
distribute applications for the county's Magnet Schools, including the new
Brown Academy for Classical Studies, located adjacent to campus on McCallie
Avenue, and the Battle Academy for Teaching and Learning, located at Main

schools.
The Brown Academy will have a liberal arts emphasis with immersion in
the classical studies of literature, history, and the sciences.
The Battle Academy will apply a standards-based curriculum with the theory
of Multiple Intelligences and a national reading program used to strengthen
skills for all students.
