Dear Parents,
We had a great time dressing up in our favorite book characters and celebrating Read Across America Day. Thanks to all that have ordered books from our virtual book fair. Proceeds from this will go to purchasing books for the media center.
The GCPS Tapestry Art show was amazing! We have so much talent in our school. Congratulations to all the winners. The PTA fundraiser is complete. In-person students received their prizes this week. Digital students may pick up their prizes in the front office at any time. Thanks again for all the support!
March 12 is a school holiday. Students will not have in-person or digital classes. March 16 is a digital learning day. All students will have asynchronous lessons from home. This will provide teachers time to plan for rigorous engaging lessons.
Mark your calendars for March 15 and March 18. March 15 is a PTA general meeting. March 18 is our final School Council meeting of the year. Both events will be virtual and are open to all parents.
Students in third through fifth grade will be taking the Georgia Milestones Assessment (GMAS) this year. The assessment will be used to determine gaps in learning and help guide teachers in differentiating instruction for the next school year. GMAS will not be used as a promotion criteria. Testing will begin on April 22 and end on May 21. A specific schedule with grade level and content area will be sent out at a later date. Digital students will be invited to the school to take the assessment.
Have a great weekend! Don't forget to read at least 20 minutes every night.
