Georgia Milestones Testing for 3rd-5th Grade Students:

Testing will begin for our third-fifth grade students, Tuesday, April 19th. Please be mindful of these dates and make certain that your student is in school on time and prepared to do his or her best. Please view the attached letter that was also sent home via courier last week.

Parents of 3rd-5th grade students are invited to write their child a letter of encouragement during testing. We ask that you send positive thoughts and energy our way as our students take this very important assessment.

2nd Annual Team Theme, Friday, April 22, 2016
Please come out to show your school spirit at the the 2nd Annual Team Theme which will be held at Champion Theme School at 6:00 pm. This will be a fun night of basketball and student performances to showcase talents of all DCSD Theme Schools.

Parent Volunteers:

We are always in need of parent volunteers to assist us with different tasks so continue to work towards completing volunteer hours for the 2015-2016 school year before the May 13th deadline. Failure to do so will compromise your child’s enrollment for the upcoming school year. If you have questions about your volunteer hour status or would like to learn more about donation opportunities, please contact Mr. Gunter.

The School Choice Department is still accepting applications for the 2016-2017 school year. Please notify family and friends who live in our attendance area and encourage them to complete an application for their child ASAP. Contact the School Choice Office for more information.

We are looking forward to an outstanding week of TEACHING and LEARNING at Wynbrooke Traditional Theme School. Thanks for all you do to make our school great!
