Book Fair
Unfortunately, we will not have parents accompany classes on their shopping day. Instead, we will offer special parent shopping hours. If you are interested, you may reserve your time slot using this Sign Up Genius link!
This is a great time of year to stock up on books and goodies for the summer!
Book Fair fliers will be coming home soon in your child's bookbag!
All proceeds will go to purchase updated books for the media center. Reach out to Patricia Hipps with any questions!

Measureable Results Assessment (MRA) Survey
The MRA is a whole school survey that gathers teacher, staff, student (in grades 4-5), and students’ family perceptions of the social and emotional development of students, collective efficacy between teachers, trusting relationships, academic mindsets, student empowerment, wellness factors and much more. Please take a few minutes to complete this survey to give us feedback.
Families (All grades)
Cafe and Ice Cream are BACK!
We will sell ice cream to the assigned grade levels in the cafe ONLY. The homeroom teachers will let you know if they have set certain days of the week for ice cream. Ice cream is $1 and we ask that you please send in small bills.
BIRTHDAY ICE CREAM PASSES--If your child has a birthday and you would like to purchase ice cream for the class to celebrate, please send in $1 per student in the class and email the homeroom teacher to coordinate.
Happy Feet Club
*UPDATE: Please do not arrive/drop off students prior to 7:15. The front doors do not open until 7:15.
Now that the weather is good, we would like to host a modified version of "Running Club." It is going to be 1-2 grade levels a day to keep low numbers. This is simply for exercise and won't be run like Running Club in the past. We won't be keeping track of laps and parents do not need to sign up their students.
- Starts on April 12th
- Monday-K/1, Tuesday-2nd, Wednesday-3rd, Thursday-4th, Friday-5th
- Time: 7:15-7:35
- Students will drop bookbags in the cafe and go straight out to track.
- Students WILL need to wear their mask when "walking/talking" to peers. If they choose to run on their own, they may drop their mask.

Infinite Campus
The Campus Parent portal is your source for a variety of student and family records, including household and individual contact information, attendance, school-based fees, academic planning (high school), forms, and report cards. The Parent portal also provides access to the GaDOE SLDS Portal. This must be done first, as the username you create in Infinite Campus is shared with the Schoology platform. Because each login reflects the person associated with the username, we recommend that you create a separate account for each parent.

Schoology
To access Schoology, parents must create an Infinite Campus parent portal account first.
Schoology is a virtual learning environment for K-12 schools that allows teachers to create, manage, and share academic content. Once your child’s courses are available, you will be able to review them and see associated info.
