Gentle reminder: Students must be IN their seats when the bell rings at 7:40 a.m.  Tardy students must be signed in by a parent or guardian-you may NOT drop your student off unsupervised. Every student tardy is documented.

FINALLY:

Redistricting meetings set for new North Fulton high school

Three community meetings are set for February 23, March 16, and April 13 to address the redistricting process for a new high school in north Fulton County. Each will be held at Alpharetta High School, located at 3595 Webb Bridge Road in Alpharetta, from 7-9 p.m.


The high school will be constructed at the corner of Bethany Bend and Cogburn Road and is scheduled to open in August 2012. Existing attendance zones of other North Fulton high schools will be modified to create the new school’s attendance zones. Parents, staff, and community members are invited to give input on how the new boundary lines will be drawn. Fulton County Schools uses a process that encourages public discussion before developing a proposal. This allows the community to have maximum input in how the proposed attendance lines are created.

The Fulton County Board of Education is scheduled to vote on the new attendance zones in June 2011. Changes in attendance zones will go into effect when the new school opens in August 2012.

Make Up Day Announcement!

Due to the unprecedented school weather closures this year, the Fulton County School System will hold two instructional make-up days for students and teaching staff.

State board of education rules allow “forgiveness” for up to four weather days during the school year, which means that students do not have to make up those days. However, six days of school already have been canceled in 2010-11 – five in January due to snow and ice, and one in December due to icy roads – which leaves two days for students to make up.

The two make-up days for students will be Friday, March 11, which was set aside as a teacher workday, and Friday, April 22, which originally was a day off for both students and teachers.

McDonald's McTeacher Night Postponed!

McDonald's McTeachers Night for 4th and 5th grade families, scheduled for Tuesday, January 11th, has been postponed due to inclimate weather!
