The kids have been giving their best effort and working very hard to show what they know on the Georgia Milestones. I'm so proud of them. Tomorrow the students will take the Mathematics portion. On Monday, April 18 they will be taking the Science portion of the Milestones and on Tuesday, April 19 they will finish by testing on Social Studies.
Please be on the lookout for lots of communication today in your child's Thursday Folder. You will need to sign a permission slip for your child to go to the 5th Grade Picnic at Kennworth Park on Wednesday, May 4. This event is offered to our students, free of charge, by The Optimist Club and Acworth Parks and Recreation. Your children have all written an essay and members of the Optimist Club will select the top 20 from our grade level. Those winners will receive a free week of summer camp with Acworth Parks and Recreation!
So, be sure you are completing the contact information sheet and return the permission slip as well. Next Thursday you will need to sign an additional permission slip for your child to attend the grade level visit to Barber Middle School. That trip is scheduled for Thursday, May 5.
