Assessments
iReady Diagnostics
Dyslexia and Reading Risk Diagnostic
All students in grades K-3 will take the dyslexia and reading risk screener on Tuesday, August 18th or Wednesday, August 19th. The test called Amira ISP, is a computer adaptive test that measures students's foundational reading skills and tracks their progress. It gives teachers real-time data to identify strengths, target areas for growth, and support personalized reading instruction. Every family received information about the screener in their Sneak Preview packet. Results of the diagnostic will be shared with families in September. Please reach out to your child's teacher or Radhika Godbole at godboler@fultonschools.org if you have questions about the diagnostic.
Device Information
Every student will receive a Fulton County issued device. Information regarding device repair and replacement costs and device insurance can be found in these flyers.
Cell Phone Policy
Please refer to the flyer for FCS cell phone policy.
Ten Day SEAT Count
Friday, August 14th was the district’s Ten Day S.E.A.T. (Student Enrollment Adjustment Time) Count, which Fulton County Schools uses to verify enrollment and make staffing decisions for the school year. Over the years, Wilson Creek has gained teachers, lost teachers, and experienced no staffing changes during this process. Because any staffing adjustment can affect class rosters, students, staff, and families, we are committed to communicating first with impacted grade levels and families before sharing information with the broader school community.
Once the district communicates any staffing decisions, we will work closely with impacted grade levels to develop a plan and communicate next steps in a timely and thoughtful manner. Our goal will always be to minimize disruption to students while maintaining a positive learning environment.
All class placements are tentative until after the Ten Day S.E.A.T. Count. Therefore student class placements and schedules could change during the first 3-4 weeks of school. Parents of students who might get a schedule change will be notified of these changes.
