***LAST CALL***
The deadline is closing soon. Only 12 families have completed this survey.
The Georgia Parent Survey is designed to give parents an opportunity to share input with the Georgia Department of Education. It contains 24 questions. Parents may complete the survey using a personal computer, smartphone, or tablet. Parents that do not have access to the Internet can contact Mountain Park ES to arrange to complete the survey at the school.
The data parents provide by completing this survey will be used as part of the calculation of the School Climate Star Rating. Survey responses are anonymous and will be submitted directly to the Georgia Department of Education for analysis. Individual data results from the Georgia Parent Survey will not be available to system or school personnel or the public and will not be posted online. Please provide your voice for Gwinnett County Public Schools by clicking HERE and completing the survey.
Spring Picture Day is Tuesday, February 13. All students will be in the class photo. Only those students who pre-pay will have their individual photos taken. Please note that the picture link will close at 4:00 pm on Monday, February 12.
The Mountain Park PTA has four vacancies on the executive board and one chair position for school year 2024-2025. If you, or someone you know, are interested in one of these positions, please complete this PTA Nomination Form.
Our school district adopted a new form of school-to-home communication called ParentSquare. This unified communications platform is designed to keep parents and guardians informed and encourage greater engagement and connection with your child’s school and Gwinnett County Public Schools.
ParentSquare provides a safe way for district administrators, school principals, teachers, staff, and parents to receive and send information, such as:
- Weather-related closings & delays
- School information
- Share pictures and files
- See calendar items
- Upcoming school activities
All district and school information will be sent to your computer or phone via email and/or text via ParentSquare. For even more convenience, download the ParentSquare app (available for free for iOS and Android devices). Please note that Mountain Park staff will communicate with parents via Class Dojo and email.
