The Georgia School Climate Family Survey was developed to measure parents' perceptions of school climate at their child’s school. Your opinion is very important to us. Flyers with this information and QR codes to access the survey are being sent home with students today for your convenience. Please take a few moments to complete the survey. Thank you for your time and participation. Your survey responses are confidential and will be combined with those of other parents at your child’s school to identify areas needing improvement. There is a separate link for each school. Please complete the survey for each school in which your children attend.

Wilkes County Schools will resume normal operations on Tuesday, February 3. We are aware that some county roads may still have icy conditions; however, after consultation with the Wilkes County Sheriff’s Office and local Emergency Management Agency, it has been determined that returning to school tomorrow is the appropriate course of action.
We ask families to use their best judgment if travel conditions in their area remain unsafe. If you believe travel is unsafe for your child, please contact your school's office. We also ask for patience with our bus drivers and school staff as they navigate morning routes and arrival procedures with care and caution.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and support as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
Report cards will be sent home with students today.
We would also like to inform you of upcoming practice assessments for students in grades 6–8. Students will take a practice Georgia Milestones assessment for ELA tomorrow and a practice math assessment on Thursday, January 8th. These practice tests will help teachers gather valuable data to adjust instruction and better prepare students for the official Georgia Milestones assessments, which will take place in April.
Please ensure that students get a good night’s rest so they can do their best and show what they know. If your child has wired earbuds, please have them bring them to school for the assessments.
Additionally, we would like to remind parents that students are required to wear their school ID at all times. Please check to make sure your child has his or her ID. If an ID has been lost or misplaced, a replacement may be purchased in the media center for $5.
Thank you for your continued support as we work together to support student success.
