Continuous Achievement Update Over the next 3 weeks our Curriculum Support Teacher, Diana Zarzour, will be screening every student in the school to ensure they are in the most appropriate placement.

FCS Technology Competition Hi parents of 3rd-5th grade students! If your student is planning to enter a project in this year’s technology competition, the deadline to register your student is December 4th at 11:59pm. All student projects and materials must then be submitted by December 16th at 11:59pm. Information and timeline for registration and submitting projects is located here: https://www.fultonschools.org/techcompetition Good luck to all of our Panthers who have worked on projects… we are so proud of you!! If you have questions please reach out to Sandi Dennis: [email protected] Computers Please make sure your child is charging their computer nightly. We are seeing many students arrive at school with batteries at 20% or less which inhibits the student from using them throughout the day as we do not have charging carts or chargers at school. Study Guides Study guides for upcoming assessments are given out one week before the assessment (the Friday before or the Monday of the week) and cover all material that students could possibly see on the test. Questions concerning the study guide should be directed to your child's teacher. Birthday Celebrations! Happy Birthday to the following students:
