Kelly Mill Family,
What a week filled with fun end-of-year festivities! The class parties were a huge hit—kudos to our room moms and teachers who truly know how to throw a great end-of-year celebration. Thank you to our parents as well for your patience and partnership with the RSVP and check-in process as we work to keep our students safe while having fun.
A special thank you to our 5th grade teachers and chaperones for a super successful field trip to Chattanooga. Our students had an amazing experience and represented Kelly Mill so well!
The 3–5 Field Day experiences were also a great success. Huge shout out to Coach Warner and his support team for managing stations, keeping things running smoothly, and creating such a fun experience for our students. The weather was beautiful, and the kids had an absolute blast!
We are looking forward to closing out the school year next week with K–2 Field Days and lots of exciting 5th grade celebrations and fun ahead.
It’s a great time to be a Colt who CARES!
Be sure to take time to rest, recharge, and relax with those you love!
Love,
Mrs. Moity

Want to celebrate one of our amazing teachers/staff members? Use this link button below to give a shout-out! Your kind words go a long way in spreading gratitude, positivity and showing appreciation for the hard work our staff puts in every day.
Parents will be notified via Parent Messenger when Georgia Milestones scores are available in the Parent Portal (usually mid-June). Parents will be notified again when the Individual Student Reports are available in the Parent Portal (usually mid-July).
We have truly enjoyed having you visit for lunch with your child throughout this school year. Due to end of year Milestone testing and end of year celebrations, we will no longer be able to accommodate lunch visits after April 24th for the remainder of the school year.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you back for lunch visits next school year!
We are looking for volunteers to help with our big 5th grade celebration! Instead of individual class party, the 5th graders will have a full day to celebrate together outside with bouncy houses, game trucks, putt-putt, lunch, dessert and more! We need YOU to help us man the stations throughout the sign up for any slots that work best for you!
