Screening for Gifted and Talented Students
If you have a child in grades 3-5 you may refer them for Screening for the Gifted and Talented program (GATE). All students in grade 2 will be tested. You may stop by the main office to pick up a referral form or you may request one be sent home by your child’s homeroom teacher. All referrals need to be completed by October 15, 2008. If you have any questions contact Donna Baumgarner at 886-4520 or donnab@oconee.k12.sc.us .

Students will have pictures made tomorrow. They do not need to bring money for these photos, and every student will have their photo taken. If you have a background color preference, you will need to send that sheet to school tomorrow!

The APPLE FESTIVAL PARADE will be Friday, September 5th at 4:30. The Parade will take place from First Baptist Church to First Citizens Bank in downtown Westminster. Look for a Faculty and Staff float from our school.
