Georgia Milestones
Do you have a student in 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade? If so, this information is IMPORTANT for you!
It is time to get Georgia Milestones EOG test dates on your calendar! Having these dates on the calendar can assist you in planning trips and appointments around these important dates for your student. We will provide more detailed information as it is made available. We truly appreciate your support in providing the best testing experience possible for our third through fifth grade students.
Feel free to reach out to Stacey Willis with any questions or concerns.
Connecting With the Community
Brookwood High School is holding a community meeting next week. The details are listed above.
Registration for the 2023-24 school year is now underway for some GCPS schools and programs!
Each year, a few special GCPS schools, programs, and a local charter school conduct activities during the winter to register students for the upcoming school year.
That process has begun for one school, with additional events planned through February for the other schools and programs. Learn more and find important links here: https://bit.ly/gcps_SR23-24
