Parent Teacher Conferences Feedback
Thank you so much to all of the families who made it out for conferences this past week! We had an excellent turnout, and it was great to have the opportunity to meet with families and discuss their child's glows and grows. (Special shout out to the PTO for the amazing dinner they provided for teachers!)
Experience UGA Field Trip
This week the 8th grade will be taking a field trip to UGA, led by the group Experience UGA.
