GCPS Parent Perception Survey
Each fall, we ask our parents to participate in the GCPS Parent Perception Survey. Your input is valuable and appreciated. Please take this survey, as we use your feedback in our reflection and planning processes at Corley Elementary. Please complete this year's survey online via the Parent Portal. The survey will close on November 22nd.
If you have not signed up for the Parent Portal, please go to the GCPS website, www.gwinnett.k12.ga.us and click on the ‘Parents’ tab for more information.
If you do not have internet access, please see Limesha Wright in the front office for a paper version of the survey. Thank you in advance for your participation.
HOLIDAY LUNCHES ARE COMING!
Join us for our annual Holiday Luncheon. Please come join your student(s) for lunch and enjoy turkey, trimmings, and fellowship with their class. Class Lunch times are listed on the Corley's website.
TUES, Nov. 19th - Kindergarten and 3rd Grade
WED, Nov. 20th - 1st Grade, 4th Grade and PreK
THURS, Nov. 21st - 2nd Grade and 5th Grade
Cost is $3.00 for adults and $3.00 for any non-students accompanying parents - Please bring exact change if you. We cannot take large bills.
Regular lunch prices are in effect for students including those receiving free/reduced price lunch. If you prefer not to purchase a lunch, you are still more than welcome to join your student on his/her day.
Please note, due to spacing issues, we will only allow lunch visitors on your students designated day, as the students are eating lunch in their classrooms on the other days. We regret that we are unable to pull siblings from instruction to eat outside of their scheduled lunch time.
