Dear Stewart County School District Community,
As we approach the close of another school year, I am filled with a deep sense of pride
for the accomplishments of our students, staff, and families. This year has been one of
continued dedication and perseverance, and I am confident that these qualities will
shine through as we participate in the Spring 2024 Georgia Milestones Assessment
System (GMAS) assessments.
Please join us at the April Parent's "Knight" Conversations and PTO meeting on April 25 at 5:30PM. Superintendent Dr. Robinson will present his final Critical Conversation for the year. Meeting starts at 5:30PM in the Stewart County Elementary Gym .
On April 8, 2024 the continental United States will experience a visible total eclipse for the 2nd time in over 100 years. Sixty-five to ninety (65% - 90%) percent of the sun will be covered by the moon. This is a historic event and one that we want our students to take part in. Safety is always our top priority and we will take all the precautionary means with our staff and students to have a safe and enjoyable experience.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has stated that homemade filters and sunglasses are not for looking at the sun. https://science.nasa.gov/eclipse/safety
We will instruct students to not look at the un-eclipsed or partially eclipsed sun without eclipse-safe glasses. Due to the safety concerns we are requesting permission from parents in order for students to participate in the event using the eclipse glasses which will be provided by Stewart County Schools. Staff members will encourage students to wear the solar glasses once schools are dismissed since most students are likely to look at the eclipse.
If your child attended and completed the 2022-2023 school year with Stewart County Schools, then your child is considered a returning student.
