With these funds, we will fund various literature sets. The B.E.A.R Fair is a safe program. There are no door-to-door sales. It is just for your family to renew or subscribe to magazines that you wish to have.
Thank you for your support!

Important Info: Georgia Milestones End of Grade Assessment
The Georgia Milestones testing window is just around the corner. Testing will begin on Thursday, April 12th and will continue through Thursday, April 26th. For elementary school, students in grades three, four, and five will be tested in ELA (two days) and math just like last year. However, students in grade five will also be tested in science and social studies. As a reminder, during the testing window, parents and visitors will not be allowed in the building for lunch visits, classroom helpers, PTO volunteers, etc.
Additional information regarding testing, including the final testing schedule, will be finalized soon and will be communicated through a separate school messenger to parents of 3rd-5th graders. At Summit Hill, all students will take the tests via the online platform. On Thursday, March 22nd, the students will have the opportunity to take a ‘practice’ test so they become familiar to the test tools prior to their first day of testing.
Additional information about the Georgia Milestones assessment can be found at the following link:
