We want to thank all of our students and staff who helped support our Impact Dayof Service for our MLK Awards Program. We had close to 75 students and staff members to give of their time on the Saturday before the break. The group was able to target the courtyards, the football field, the outside grounds along Ward Street and Belmont Parking Lots, and the front of the school (both Powder Spring Rd and the flag post entrances). It was a successful day and would not have happened without their support. We will share pictures next week of some of the awardees of the MLK Ceremony and Awards Program.
Congratulations to our students who participated in the Mock Trials before the Winter Break. Pranav Iyer won 2 best witness awards, Elise Smith won an outstanding attorney award, and Lucy Smith won two best witness awards.
Parents/Guardians, please complete the survey above. All parents throughout the state are being asked to complete this survey. We would like to have at least 200 parents complete the survey by March 1.
