A Message from the Principal
Greetings Bronco Families,
Thanks for an amazing three-day week! We appreciate all who supported this week’s events, including the sports themed PBIS awards day and our first Local School Council meeting. As we look to fall break, October 10 -14, please remember interim exams are scheduled when we return from break. Encourage your child to create a study schedule, review notes, and get plenty of rest. Additionally, ensure your student comes to school every day with a charged Chromebook and charger.
Here is our exam schedule:
- 10/16: Math and Social Studies
- 10/17: Science and Language Arts
- 10/18: Biology and Connections
Remember we are partners in your student’s educational journey. Please contact the school should you need support. Have a safe, fun fall break!
In service to others,
Principal Moffett
Fall Break | Oct. 10-14

Instructional Updates
A. Instructional Resources Public Review Opportunity
Staff, students, families, and Gwinnett community members are invited to review and provide input on proposed instructional resources for select grades and courses in Career and Technical Education and Health (Sex Education).
Before adopting instructional resources for classroom use, Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) holds an extensive review. Multiple committees involving various stakeholder groups reviewed resources submitted by publishers for alignment with the school system’s Academic Knowledge and Skills (AKS) standards. During the ongoing review process, selected resources are piloted in GCPS classrooms. Data from the reviews and pilots will be considered in making adoption recommendations to the Board of Education in 2025.
This year’s virtual public review is open now through October 31. To begin, please visit this link.
What: Instructional Resources Public Review Opportunity
When: September 30 - October 31
Where: Begin the virtual review.
