UGA Experience Trip
6th Grade students were given permission slips on Thursday of last week for our UGA Experience Trip that will happen this Wednesday, April 3rd. The whole 6th Grade will go on Wednesday to learn more about the culture of Latin America. If you haven't signed your student's permission slip, please do so ASAP! We would love 100% participation! If you are willing to chaperone the field trip on Wednesday from 8:30 - 1:30 PM (approximately), please email Ms. Archer (archerm@clarke.k12.ga.us) ! We are looking for around 10 volunteers! Students may either bring their lunch or they will receive a sack lunch from the school.

Spring Pictures are pre-pay only and students may dress down for picture day. There will be no makeups for picture day.
