Dear Asa G. Hilliard Elementary Families!
Hello December!❄
As we come to the end of 2020 and the mid-school calendar year, we find that December is about celebrations, traditions, reflections, and hope of purpose for new things to come. We are at the halfway point of our school year, which I commend you take quite a few victory laps for your patience, perseverance, and determination to succeed!
This has been an unprecedented year, but kudos to you for staying the course and helping us, help your children!
iRead/iReady Reading and Math goals are strengthening and we encourage you to help make these goals attainable for mastery for your children.
We are here to support you and your children, as our teaching and learning together never stops!
Thank you for all you do, we will get through this together!
Best,
Maureen Lilly

In effort to keep our students and staff healthy and safe, we want to share a few reminders:
The Fulton County Board of Health and Fulton County Schools have developed an on-line portal for FCS parents/guardians to report student COVID-19 related cases. Please make a report to the FCBOH when your student is COVID-19 positive, has a pending COVID-19 test result, or has been in direct contact with a COVID-19 positive person. Also, please use this resource for official reporting rather than alerting the school and/or teacher. If you must engage the school/teacher, please do so after you have made an official report to the FCBOH. Lastly, to ensure the protection of our school community, please do not allow your child to attend school or school-sponsored events when he/she is ill and/or has any of the above COVID-19 concerns. Please reference the attached flyer and consider posting it in a visible location for easy access.
Bus Transportation
Please visit the FCS Transportation webpage often for updated Bus Stop Information pick-up and drop-off times.

Our Character Word of the Month: RESPECT
Showing Respect by Kathleen Hollenbeck, The Big Book of Classroom Poems
When you respect people,
you look at them
and try to understand
who they are inside.
You step around their things
instead of on them.
You try to let them
share a whole thought with you,
even when you feel like interrupting.
You don't chew on the pencil they lent you.
You don't lose their markers,
and you keep the secrets they tell.
When you respect people,
you think of the way
you
like to be treated,
and that is
exactly
the way you treat them.
