Students are assigned “AT HOME” work. Each child has a WINGS communication folder. I am requesting parents check
these folders on a regular basis for important information and to know the progress of your child completing assignments.
The completion of these assignments will determine their GEP progress report evaluation level. Also, students must have
an 80% average or above in all gifted courses, including resource, to continue in good standing. Please feel free to contact
me at 912-395-5940, or email at adrian.griffin@sccpss.com, if you have any questions or concerns.
OUR SCHEDULE
Gifted Students are in their GEP resource class on
Tuesdays and Thursdays at these scheduled times.
OWL Time Organized While Learning
