Georgia School Personnel Survey
The Georgia School Personnel Survey (GSPS) is modeled after the student survey and includes 31 questions. The GSPS is for all certified and classified staff members who work at least 50 percent of the day in the school.
At least 75% of certified and classified staff members must participate in the survey to be eligible for the School Climate Star Rating.
Most teachers should be able to participate using their classroom computer. The survey is also accessible using a tablet or smartphone. Survey responses are anonymous and will be submitted directly to the Georgia Department of Education for analysis. Results from the Georgia School Personnel Survey will not be available to the public and will not be posted online.
Staff will need to complete this survey prior to December 22nd however, we encourage everyone to go ahead and take it!! Thank you!!!

Donations for Rock Eagle
We have 15 students in 5th grade that were unable to pay for Rock Eagle this year. Since we never deny students access to field trips because of money, we are trying to pay for their entry fee.
If you would like to make a donation of any kind for these students, please let Michelle Nobles know. The cost per child is $100 so any type of donation is greatly appreciated! Thank you!!!

Book Character Dress Up Day
Book Character Dress Up day will be Monday, October 31st. Students and staff are encouraged to dress up as their favorite book character.
Below is a sweet 3 minute video reminding us why we do what we do each day. I hope it brings a smile to your face like it did my own!
