Sending a major thank you to EVERYONE who has joined the PTA, donated, and volunteered to help with this project. We are SO EXCITED to have a new front desk that is safer, up to date, and a BEAUTIFUL first impression of our school. Additionally, it is such a luxury to have the built-in, permanent lost and found installed in the front lobby. THANK YOU, PTA!

Recently, the state of Georgia has introduced new early literacy legislation aimed at improving reading skills among our young learners. We want to make sure you are fully informed about what this means for your child. Please review the letter linked below for details.

Just 2 weeks left to sign this required document! All students and families in all Fulton County Schools are required to review the Code of Conduct which outlines the behavior expectations of our scholars. Please click the button below and take a moment to review this important document. Within it you will also locate information about FERPA/student privacy (pages 69-70) and student device agreements (pages 74-75). Upon completion, all families must document that they've reviewed the Code of Conduct. Please see attachment for directions to verify you've completed this important step by August 31.
