April 30, 2025 - Georgia Milestones begins. No visitors/volunteers during the testing window (April 30th-May 16th)

May 9, 2025 - Any unclaimed Lost and Found items will be donated!

Dear Jaguar Families,

Georgia Milestones is upon us! Testing will begin on Wednesday, April 30th. Students are to report to their homeroom teachers. Throughout the testing window, please make sure your child is present and arrives no later than 7:40 a.m. each day! We encourage all students to get a good night’s sleep and eat a healthy breakfast each morning. Aside from the FCS device, students should not bring any additional electronic devices (cell phones, smart watches, etc.) into the classroom on testing days.

Today, Freddy the Falcon flew to Abbotts Hill to pump up our 3rd-5th Graders! The Atlanta Falcons shared testing tips to help them RISE UP and S.A.C.K. Milestones!

S - Sleep! Get a good night's sleep.

A - Arrive early and excited.

C - Check your answers!

K - Keep your cool.

Our PreK-2nd graders also got to see Freddy the Falcon as they lined the hallway to cheer on our 3rd-5th graders!

Save the date for our Volunteer Breakfast which will be held on May 14th at 8:00 am. We appreciate all of our volunteers and would like to express our gratitude for all that you do. Please RSVP no later than May 9th by 3pm. You can find the link in this edition of the Hilltop Happenings!

The Lost and Found is being donated to a local charity on Friday, May 9th. Please remind your student to check for any lost items.

Thank you,

Jill Osmerg

There are a couple of important updates and actions to ensure a smooth start to the upcoming school year.

1. Demographic Information Update - Action Required
Beginning April 15, 2025, all FCS families will be required to verify and update their demographic information via an Existing Family Registration (Next Year 2025-2026) in Infinite Campus. This includes confirming or updating emergency contact details. PLEASE NOTE: The emergency contact must be someone other than the parent/guardian, as we must have an alternate contact in the event of an emergency.

Thank you for your assistance in keeping this information accurate. It is essential for student safety and for maintaining effective communication between your family and the school.

2. Optional Student Device Protection Plan for FCS-Issued Student Devices

New legal requirements will significantly limit the use of personal devices (BYOD) in schools. As a result, Fulton County Schools will rely more heavily on district-issued devices to ensure all students have access to the technology they need for learning.

To help families prepare, we are offering an optional Student Device Protection Plan for FCS-issued student devices. This plan provides an affordable way to protect against unexpected costs due to accidental damage, loss, or theft.

Benefits of the device protection plan include:

• Protection from the cost of accidental damage
• Peace of mind in case of loss or theft
• Continued access to technology without interruption

You may sign up and pay for the Optional Student Device Protection Plan during the Online Verification process, beginning on April 15th, 2025.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership. If you have any questions, please contact our data clerk, Kristin Stockman.
