Teacher Appreciation Week!
Dear Parents:
National Teacher Appreciation Week will be held during the week of May 3-9, 2021. The teachers at Corley have worked extremely hard to support all students. This is a wonderful opportunity for you and your child to let them know how much you appreciate them. We are asking each student to write a note to a teacher who has supported them. Students and parents may write notes to a teacher from this year or previous years. Please use the attached cards to express your gratitude. Students will return their cards to the Teacher Appreciation Booth, located in the front lobby, during the week of May 3-9. The cards will be delivered to the appropriate teacher.
As a parent you are also welcome to come up with any other way that you would like to celebrate your child’s teacher.
Thank You,
Corley Administrative Team
Save The Date- 5th Grade Graduation
More information is to follow.
Attendance is very critical during the testing window, so please note the dates below and try not to schedule any appointments or vacations during this time frame. Thank you for your support.
Field day will look a little different this year than in the past. The day will consist of different stations that each class will go to and play the activity. There will not be any volunteers/parents to come out and help or watch their child perform the games. Each student will need to bring their own bottle of water.
The dates are as followed:
Wednesday, May 19- Kindergarten and First Grade
Thursday, May 20- Second and Third Grade
Friday, May 21- Fourth and Fifth GradeThanks,
Mrs. Hodnette
We are excited to announce the GASP! program will be offered at Corley Elementary next year. Spots are limited so parents need to sign up in advance. Please see the flyer below.

Reminder about Student Checkout Procedures
A parent or authorized contact must contact the Front Office at 678-924-5330 office 30-45 minutes prior to arriving at the school. Office staff will verify authorization to prevent delays upon arrival. Student will be called from class once the parent/contact has arrived, and ID has been verified.
