Principal Cassidy's Corner: Happy Thanksgiving!
On behalf of our school family, we want to wish each of you a happy, healthy, and safe Thanksgiving holiday. We are thankful for the opportunity to support your children to learn, grow, and thrive. Just like parenting, some days are more difficult than others as an educator, but every day is new day and I love spending it with our community.
Many thanks to the families who donated items to our food drive. We collected over 600 items for our school food pantry! All items are going directly to families in need at Holcomb Bridge MS. If you are in need, please reach out to our social worker Kasey Vermilya to request assistance.
470-254-9566 or vermilyak1@fultonschools.org
We have just three weeks remaining in this first semester after the Thanksgiving break and we intend to make the most of our learning time (and make a little time for fun and celebrations, too). Rest, recharge, and return ready to learn. We will see you on December 2!
LOST AND FOUND ITEMS
Reminder: Check the Lost and Found Before 12/13
Has your student misplaced a jacket, lunchbox, or water bottle? The Holcomb Bridge Middle School lost and found is overflowing! All unclaimed items will be donated on Friday, December 13th. Please encourage your student to check the lost and found or stop by the school yourself before the deadline.
Laptop Fines
Students who have a lost/damaged laptop or accessory will not be able to get replacement item until the applicable fine is paid. We have been sending notices to parents of students who currently have an unpaid fine.
Students are responsible for the care of their school-issued laptop and accessories. Use of the protective case is required. If the device is damaged, lost or stolen, the fines listed below will be applied to the student’s account.
FINES:
- Lost/stolen, $250
- Damaged, $100
- Accessories – Lost or damaged, $30 for each accessory (charger, case)
