Dear Parents,
We had an awesome Boosterthon kickoff this week! We are so excited to be fundraising for additional classroom computers. Thank you for all your efforts.
It was wonderful to see so many parents for conferences this week! Fourth grade students did a great job presenting their conferences to the parents. If you were unable to attend a conference this week, please contact your child's teacher to schedule a conference at another time.
Please join us tonight for the annual talent show! You won't want to miss this spectacular event!
Next week we will have our Boosterthon Fun Run on Friday! See schedule in Calendar at a Glance (to the left) or on our website calendar for grade level times.
Selected student artwork will be displayed at the county office for the annual Tapestry Art Show. The kickoff celebration is on Monday night.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Georgia DOE Parent Survey
All Head Elementary parents are encouraged to participate in the Georgia Parent Survey administered by the Georgia Department of Education.
Data from the survey will be used to calculate the School Climate Star Rating on the College and Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI), Georgia's accountability system that rates schools and school districts on a 100-point scale. The data will also be combined with that from the Georgia Student Health Survey II and the Georgia School Personnel Survey to determine each school's Climate Star Rating.
The Georgia Parent Survey will be available through
March 6, 2020.
The link to the survey is posted below. After you click on the link, a drop-down menu will appear and the parent will use the drop-down menu to select their school district and their school.
RUN THE REAGAN
is the premier Gwinnett County road race that financially supports the Brookwood Schools Foundation, the Lilburn Coop and OUR local school. The more people that register, the greater the financial benefit to our school!! Our school always has a great turnout and we hope that this year will be no different.
There are
walking and running options
of different lengths. 5K (3.1 miles); 10K (6.2 miles); Half Marathon (13.1 miles).
The race is on February 29, 2020 with the race starting locally in Snellville and running out and back along Ronald Reagan Parkway. (The road is closed to traffic!!!)
Please consider running or at least joining so that our school might financially benefit. This is a great way to get some exercise and even include family and friends. You will find participants of EVERY POSSIBLE fitness level. Other cluster schools are already signed up so please join in the fun.
Your entry fee includes a T shirt, medals for winners, goodies and give-aways from local vendors, plus fun activities.
Look on the right hand side for the tab that says Register
You can also download the physical form and send the form in via the mail.

Our AR challenge runs from 5/10/2019 through 5/10/2020 so that all students including 5th graders may celebrate their accomplishments each May. So far this school year we have
121,285,122
words school wide. Can we get over 200 millions words before 5/10?
Please encourage your child to meet their reading goal so they can celebrate with us at the end of the school year.
Not only are students meeting individual goals, they also also participating in the stable challenge. Open the link below for the AR reading goal flyer.

Book Fair was a huge success thanks to our Head families. Thank you to the many parents who came to help. We could not run the book fair without you. Our BOGO (Buy One Get One free) sale will be coming up at the end of April. Watch updates for more information.
BOX TOPS ARE GOING DIGITAL -
Be sure to register with the NEW Box Top app. Choose R.D. Head as your school (friends and family can do it too! Near or far!) and scan your receipts to digitally send your Box Tops in to us. Each Box Top is worth 10ยข for our school. **You may still find the old pink Box Tops on items. When you do, clip the Box Tops from the packages and send them to your child's teacher. The old box tops are still good until their expiration date!**
