Our next Digital Learning Day (DLD) for all students is scheduled for Friday, February 2.

This is the third of four at-home asynchronous learning days this school year that will provide additional planning time for teachers.

Note that students can access lessons in eCLASS but will not have virtual class time with their teachers on these scheduled DLDs.

On Friday, February 2, GCPS will provide meals via bus distribution. Families should expect buses to run their routes starting at approximately 10:45 a.m., beginning with the first stop on the route.

Beginning February 5, lunch visitors will be able to join us at Camp Creek ES. To allow all parents / guardians an opportunity to join us, we ask that you limit lunch visits to ONE per month.

• Please inform your child’s classroom teacher prior to your visit.
• Designated tables and picnic tables, as weather allows, will be available for lunch guests.
• Based on space limitations, we ask that you limit 2 non-student guests per visit.
• Students will not be allowed to bring a classroom friend to join them for lunch at this time.
• Visits should be reserved for special occasions – i.e. birthday, family from out of town, etc.
• Parents WILL NOT be allowed to report to recess or classroom with students following lunch.
• Please be mindful not to park in a numbered space when joining us for lunch.
  

As a best practice, we recommend you call the front office in advance of your lunch visit to make sure there are no schedule changes, special events, grab & go meals, etc. that would prevent you from being able to join your student(s) for lunch.

GCPS invites all families of students in grades 3 – 12 to join the “Georgia Milestones Assessment Family Night” led by the Executive Director of the Accountability & Assessment Office on February 6th from 5:30 to 6:30 PM.
