Happy Sunday Patriot Families!
Greetings Patriot Families,
I hope you are enjoying your extended holiday weekend and taking some time to reflect on the recognition of our Active Duty and Retired Military Service members for Memorial Day.
This is the final newsletter for the 2022-2023 School Year! We have so much to celebrate during this Year of Firsts! I cannot tell you how truly grateful I am to serve an amazing group of students and a very supportive community. Our seniors amassed over $13M in scholarship awards this school year and their artistic and athletic accomplishments have certainly placed Sandy Creek in a league of our own! A special shout out to our Counselors, our Custodians, Mr. Hooks, Mrs. Purdy, Mrs. Beane, Coach Murphy and our Junior Marshalls, Ms. Gallman, Mr. Kelly, Ms. Bradford-Hunt, Mrs. Hennessy, Ms. Cronin, Ms. Alegria, Ms. Seals, and Ms. Walker, and the entire administrative team for providing specific support to ensure a successful graduation!
We are sad to see our seniors leave us but we are also inspired by the product that is going out into the world on behalf of Sandy Creek High School and the Fayette County School System. Alumni support and engagement will be critical in the years to come as we continue to build upon the legacy that is the Diamond Dynasty. Please encourage your seniors to return to Sandy Creek to give advice, mentor, and support our current Patriots.
Summer assignments have been posted on our website, featured in this week's newsletter, and provided to every teacher at Flat Rock Middle School! Additionally, information about Patriot Camp is forthcoming! Please encourage your scholar to engage in learning activities this summer in the areas of Math, Reading, Science, and Social Studies.
We continue to be proud of our Patriots and the teachers and staff members who selflessly give of their time and talents to support our students and ensure that they shine whatever their pursuits!
We are excited to support our students in their academic endeavors while providing them with a competitive advantage!

The Campus Parent portal is your source for student and family records, including household and individual contact information, attendance, school-based fees, academic planning (high school), forms, and report cards. The Parent portal also provides access to the GaDOE SLDS Portal. Please set up the parent Infinite Campus account first. The same username will be shared with Schoology to set up your parent account in Schoology. Because each login reflects the person associated with the username, it is recommended that a separate account is created for each parent.
- Usernames can be comprised of letters, numbers, the underscore, and dash.
- Please refrain from creating a username that is all numbers, as that will interfere with student data here in our district.
- After completing the setup of your parent portal account, please allow 24 hours for your new account information to be sent to Schoology before attempting to log into your Schoology parent account.

The Infinite Campus app is available in the App Store and Google Play.
