Back to School Night and SLO Testing
Worth County Primary School will host our Back to School Night on Monday, August 11 from 6-7 pm. Stop by to learn about school events, PTO, and visit our class! Also, we will begin SLO, or Student Learning Objectives, testing on Monday. SLO's are mandated by the state of Georgia and will be administered at the beginning and end of the school year. SLOs are content-specific, grade level learning objectives that are measureable, focused on growth in student learning, and aligned to curriculum standards.
Free Breakfast and Lunch
Worth County School District will be implementing a new program available to the State of Georgia called the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for the 2014-2015 school year. All enrolled students of Worth County School District are eligible to receive one healthy breakfast and lunch at school at NO CHARGE to your household each day of the 2014 – 2015 school year. Your child(ren) will be able to participate in these meal programs without having to pay a fee.
Free Breakfast and Lunch
If you were paying for full-priced or reduced-priced meals in the past, you will not be paying those charges this year for your child to receive a breakfast or lunch. However, if students wish to have a second meal or extra items, those items will have a charge. A second meal will be charged the full adult meal price of $3.75. Students must have monies to pay for those second meals/extra items or the second meals/extra items will not be allowed to be purchased.
Lexia Learning and Symphony Math
The children are enjoying Lexia and Symphony. Check your child's agenda for login information for these programs. The website for Lexia is www.lexiacore5.com and the Symphony website is www.mysymphonymath.com. Your child can work on learning skills and complete lessons from home.

Parent Conferences
I will send home paperwork about parent conferences next week. Please complete the conference form and return to school as soon as possible. Conferences will be scheduled during class specials time, my planning time, or at the end of the school day. If you believe your work schedule will present a conflict, please let me know in advance, so we can make our best efforts to arrange a convenient time.
