Local Heros
Hats off to the Cafeteria Staff for their amazing work in preparing a fabulous holiday meal. I think we all agree they went above and beyond:-)
The Office Staff supported all of our events this week by decorating the cafeteria and assisting parents.
Thank you Sunshine Committee for the hot chocolate and warm drinks that hit the spot on Monday.
Gretchen, Terry and everyone who assists with textbook inventory. Parsons received a Platinum Award for exemplary text inventory.
We thank all of our veterans and those currently serving in the military for their loyalty and contributions to our country.
Georgia Milestone Assessment Release
We expect that the state will release the 2014-15 Georgia Milestone Assessment school and district level results on Monday, November 16th. In anticipation of this release, we're providing this letter you can use with your parents and community. We have not received the individual student score reports in the district, but we expect to receive them in the next few weeks. Student reports will initially be posted on the parent portal and then paper scores will be sent once they have been sorted based on current enrollment. The letter can be shared through your electronic newsletters and/or printed for individual students.
The state will release the following information for each school and district:
· number of students tested; mean scale score;
· percent of students in each of the four achievement levels (Beginning Learner, Developing Learner, Proficient Learner, Distinguished Learner);
· the percent of students who achieve Developing Learner and above; and
· the percent of students who achieve Proficient Learner and above.
