A Note from Dr. Spooner
Dear Families,
Can you believe that we have completed a month of school already? These past few weeks seem to have flown by! As we enter September, let's continue to inspire a love of learning, curiosity, and friendship among our students. Together, we can make this a month of growth, discovery, and fun!
These next few weeks are going to be very exciting for us at Eastvalley as we will be making our big move to the new building! Be on the lookout for more details as we get closer to the move. Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. Here's to a fantastic September ahead!
Best,
Dr. Spooner
Cognia Parent Survey
The Cognia Student, Parent, and Staff Surveys are designed to collect data on student academic learning and wellness during the current school year. Participation in each survey is anonymous and voluntary, and participation is highly encouraged. The survey results will provide Cognia Accrediting Agency, Cobb County School District, and local schools with data regarding student learning environment, staff input, and parent feedback to support continuous learning.”
A link to the Cognia Parent Survey is available below.

PTA & Foundation News
Eastvalley Foundation Education Enrichment Campaign
Every year, the Eastvalley Elementary School Foundation asks our community of families to give in support of their children's educational experiences. We make this ask because without your financial support, there's not enough budget money to cover crucial resources like supplemental reading curriculum, classroom supplies, software licenses, and STEM Lab materials.
Please make a donation today. Our Eastvalley students deserve every opportunity to learn and grow, and 100% of your donation stays at the school and is invested into their education.
This year we have a big goal, but together we can make a big difference. Thank you!
You can make your donation here: https://donorbox.org/eastvalley-education-enrichment-campaign-2023
