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

Testing will continue for our third-fifth grade students on Monday, April 25th. Please be mindful of testing dates and make certain that your student is in school on time and prepared to do his or her best.

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.

On testing days (April 19th-May 3rd) we will need parent volunteers to assist in the following areas:
.
Hall Monitors from 8:00 am-11:30 am
Student Monitors for Online Testers 8:00 am-11:30 am (25th, 28th, 2nd)
Lunch Room Monitors 11:00 am-12:30 pm on testing days

Also this week:

Tuesday (26th): PTA Meeting at 6:00 pm and Progress Reports Go Home

Friday (29th): Bruster’s School Spirit Night 5:00 pm-8:00 pm (2688 Rockbridge Road Stone Mountain)

Saturday (30th): Annual Wynbrooke PTA Spring Carnival

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!
