Announcements *****************
***CINS Centennial / Hill / Hope / Lin / Morningside / Inman /
Walden / Grady discuss Local School Councils:
One of the most significant pieces of education reform in recent years has
been the addition of Local School Councils to each school in Georgia. Come
hear about the activities of School Councils and the impact they have had
on our schools in the Grady Cluster at the next meeting of CINS, the
Council of Intown Neighborhoods and Schools.
When: April 21st, Noon
Where: Mary Lin Elementary
What else: Lunch will be available for $5.
***We need Junior parents to help with " Visions of the Future
" on May 16th at 9:00am. Traditionally, juniors do the
refreshments for the seniors and their families. There is a budget
for the food, we just need the workers. If you are interested, please call
Terry Ozell 404-876-7159. Thank you.
***Interested in hosting an exchange student for next school year? American
Field Service is now looking for families who would like to host for
2004-05. Questions or more info, call Terry Ozell 404 876 7159
***Parents and students interested in the Grady golf team will
meet on Wednesday, April 21, at 6:00 p.m. Place is the "old" gym
(a.k.a. the boys' gym or the gym nearest 10th Street). The current season
is winding down, but we're making plans for next year. If you have
questions, call Sarah Fedota at 404-874-6988.
***End of Course Testing and Advanced Placement Testing dates
are the the bottom of this e-mail.
***Princeton Review has a new website featuring its latest study
guides/aids for the new SAT. It's really an informative and fun site,
and I think those students deciding how to prepare for the SAT would find
it useful. The site is:
http://testprep.princetonreview.com/sat/newsatquiz/index.asp
It requires Flash Player, and can take up to 4 minutes to download on
dial-up modems; however, it's worth the wait.
***Advanced Placement Exams will be given the weeks of May 3 and May
10, 2004. AP studentst have received a calendar of dates and
list of fees required to take the exams. Registration and fees are due
March 29 to Ms. Ross in the school office. Contact Mr. McCurdy at McCurdy@gradyhighschool.org
or 404-853-4000 ext 328 or Mrs. Grimes at cgrimes@atlanta.k12.ga.us
404-853 4000 ext 216 for more information.
