Thank you to everyone who attended GLOBE’s Auction on Saturday evening at The Distillery of Modern Art in Chamblee, and also to those who took part in the online Silent Auction. I would like to convey my sincere thanks to our wonderful PTCC and volunteers for organizing such a fun and successful event! Scroll down to the PTCC section for more information.
Georgia Milestones testing will be taking place in April, for grades 3 though 8. Georgia Milestones is designed to provide students with critical information about their own achievement and readiness for their next level of learning. An introduction and schedule was included in last week's newsletter. Teachers will also be sending out a separate email with further details.
Finally, I would like to remind our GLOBE community that this coming Friday, March 29, is a normal school day. We look forward to welcoming our students back to campus on Monday, April 8, which will be an early release day due to the solar eclipse.
Have a fabulous spring break!
In Community,
