Open House

We had a great Friday!! The Hillgrove drum line, cheerleaders, and mascot led us in a Pep Rally to kick off the school year.  CCSD Superintendent, Chris Ragsdale, and other guests announced that Mrs. Wadsworth was selected as the Cobb County School District Teacher of the Year for K-12!!! We even snuck in a picture with Harry the hawk.

Thank you to those that were able to make it out to Open House! I am SUPER excited about this year and the amazing students I have the privilege of teaching. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.

If were unable to attend, please feel free to download and click through this informational PowerPoint presentation. I sent home a packet of information from Open House. There are several important items that need to be filled out, signed, and returned as soon as possible. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns!
