WriteScore for 2nd Graders
Digital learning students in grade 2 will be participating in an online writing task through the Write Score platform. The testing window for digital learning students to complete this experience will be from Monday, March 29th through Tuesday, March 30th. Please note the amount of tasks in Accelerate Education will be lightened during this particular week to accommodate the Write Score writing assignment.
Below is the link to an informational slideshow which includes a Write Score introductory video and login instructions. Your student's home school Assistant Principal will send the required login information to you on the day of the Write Score task. Please contact your school's AP if you have any questions.

GA Milestones Information
Parents of digital learning students in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades received an email letter on Friday, March 19th explaining the upcoming GA Milestones assessments and instructions to complete a survey regarding their interest in having their child participate in these assessments in the school setting. As it is very important that we be able to plan for distance learning students who will be coming to school to participate in the Milestones assessments, please respond to the survey as soon as possible if your child is in grades 3, 4, or 5. The survey deadline is Thursday, April 1st. For more information, please contact your child's home school.
