INTERNATIONAL SKILL DIPLOMA SEAL
Dear Milton Senior Students and Parents/Guardians, Two years ago, our school was approved to award the International Skills Diploma Seal to qualifying seniors. Why this Diploma Seal?
According to the Georgia Department of Education, who is awarding the ISDS, they believe that in today's global marketplace, it is important for students to acquire the interdisciplinary skills they need to be globally competent and competitive. The International Skills Diploma Seal is awarded to graduating high school students who complete an international education curriculum and engage in extracurricular activities and experiences that foster the achievement of global competencies. It is a signal to employers and higher education institutions that a student is prepared to participate in the global economy. You can review the complete information about the International Skills Diploma Seal at: https://www.gadoe.org/Curriculum-Instruction-and-Assessment/Curriculum-and-Instruction/Pages/International-Skills-Diploma-Seal.aspx
If you are a senior who is interested in pursuing this Diploma Seal, please print, complete and return the application below and submit it to Muriel Davison or to your World Language Teacher by February 17, 2021 via email. Then all coursework credits will be verified by the counselors. Once records are verified, students will be notified and invited to attend the virtual informational meeting about the Capstone Presentation, February 24, 2021 at 3:30 pm (access code will be sent to qualifying students later). The Capstone Presentation is a student reflection on his/her cross-cultural experiences, learned international skills, and competencies. Students will have a choice for the presentation format (video, presentation, performance, journal reading).
The Capstone Presentation will take place virtually on March 24, 2021 at 3:30 pm in front of the International Skills Diploma Seal Committee. Students who are absent or sick will have one more chance to present their Capstone Presentation on March 29, 2021. A list of the final International Skills Diploma Seal Candidates will be submitted to the GA DOE in April of 2021. Students receiving the ISDS will be recognized at the Award Assembly TBA and will receive the Seal during Milton High School Graduation Ceremony in May.

COVID REPORTING PORTAL
As students in Fulton County Schools (FCS) have begun returning to face-to-face instruction, a number of changes were implemented to ensure the health and safety of students, staff, and visitors. Among the most vital of these changes is the development and introduction of a new electronic FCS COVID-19 Reporting Portal for parents (and students). This electronic reporting process will allow for a more direct reaction from primarily the Fulton County Board of Health (FCBOH) with support from FCS to promptly respond and address student/family cases of COVID-19.
