Hello from Haynes Bridge Middle School in
Alpharetta, Georgia!; Alpharetta is a suburb located north of
Atlanta with a population of 21,500. Our capital city, Atlanta,
is located in north central Georgia in the foothills of the Blue
Ridge Mountains.; Atlanta has been ranked 13th largest metropolitan
city in the United States. Atlanta is famous for many
things, but, one of the most important is that it was the site
of the 1996 Summer Olympics. In addition to numerous
sight seeing attractions, it is also home to the Atlanta Braves
baseball team and the Atlanta Falcons football team.
Several institutes of higher education also call Atlanta home;
Georgia Tech & Georgia State University. Some famous
Georgians include former President Jimmy Carter, Martin Luther
King, Jr., Newt Gingrich, Jackie Robinson, and Martha Mitchell.
Our school has about 1050 students in grades 6-8. We
are 6th grade students. We are excited about having
the opportunity to participate in this game. Good luck
with the puzzles and have a great year!
