I enjoyed meeting many parents at Spring into Writing and I'm looking forward to getting to know you better next year. Several parents have asked about ACCESS scores and ESOL placement for next year. We have not received scores yet and will be anticipating them in the next week or two. Once we receive our scores we will be able to determine whether students will continue in ESOL next year. Please look for a letter to come home before the end of the year.
Many parents have asked about the letter that was sent home last week. The letter is not concerning your specific child's progress and does not indicate your child's test scores on ACCESS or CRCT. This letter is informing you about all ESOL students in Fulton County using last year's (2011-2012) CRCT and high school end of course tests. The box that indicates "did not meet" is referring to all ESOL students as a group did not meet the target for math and therefore did not make the AMAO targets.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding your child's progress.

This week we will work on some skills that will help us spell and read new words. | 3rd GradeThird graders are finishing up writing their realistic fiction stories. Students should continue to work on ensuring that stories are either told by the first person point of view (using I) or third person point of view (using he or she). Sometimes stories are getting mixed up and using both points of view. | 4th & 5th GradeFourth and fifth graders have been finishing their myths. Look for these to come home to explain why earthquakes, volcanoes, or tsunamis happen. This week, we will write about the school to help new students understand how to |
