Hello Parents and Guardians,
This is a reminder that Intercession will take place next week, February 23rd–27th, at Green Acres Middle School.
Intercession is a valuable opportunity for our students to continue growing academically in a focused and supportive environment. During this time, students work in smaller groups, receive individualized support, and participate in targeted instruction designed to help close learning gaps. It is an excellent way to strengthen skills, build confidence, and promote continued academic success.
We strongly encourage you to register your child for Intercession as soon as possible. To complete registration, please visit the Birmingham City Schools website and follow the Intercession registration link.
At Green Acres Middle School, we are committed to keeping our parents informed and actively engaged in your child's academic progress.
Thank you for your continued partnership and commitment to your child's education. We look forward to a productive and impactful Intercession week!

Green Acres Middle School’s Exceptional Students had an absolutely amazing time bowling at Spare Time today! From the moment they laced up their shoes to the final roll of the ball, our students were all smiles, showing teamwork, encouragement, and pure joy. Experiences like this not only create lasting memories, but also give our students opportunities to build social skills, confidence, and meaningful connections outside the classroom.
A special thank-you goes to Birmingham City School's Transition Services/ Special Education Department dedicated staff and supporters who made this trip possible. Your commitment ensures our students continue to learn, grow, and experience the world in fun and engaging ways. 🎳💚💛
