Ramsey's Reflections
Hello Bear Family!
I am not sure if anyone else can relate, but I cannot figure out how we got to the end of September!
I have to brag on your kids - for the most part, our students are rocking this year! From wearing IDs, to getting involved in clubs and extra-curriculars, to performances in fine arts and athletics, we are so blessed to work with the best kids in Hall County.
I hope you all had the chance to take part in some of the festivities for Gold Out, an annual event our Legacy program leads for our entire community, that culminated last Friday night at the football game. It makes me so proud to see our community do a small part in the fight against childhood cancer. I pray that we will live to see this terrible disease eradicated so no family ever has to battle this enemy again!
Currently, we are in the middle of our Homecoming week and all of the dress up days and festivities that go along with it as well. I want to thank all of our staff who work many additional hours to create these memory making events for our students.
Looking forward to seeing our students as they dress up for spirit days and in their finest for the dance on Saturday!
Make good choices, and always Go Bears!
Love,
Mrs. Ramsey
The 9 week period ends on October 3rd. This is a great time to check grades on Infinite Campus and encourage students to turn in make-up work. Grades are not finalized at the end of the 9 week period so there is still plenty of time. If your child is having a tough time, consider these things:
Attendance is one of the key factors in student's academic success. Are they here everyday?
Seeing missing assignments and not sure if they have been turned in? Check in with the teacher to get clarification.
Consider setting up a parent teacher conference. Reach out to your child's counselor and they can arrange a meeting for all of the teachers to be present.
AP Testing dates have been announced. Visit the link below to see when you will test in May and put that date on your calendar!
Got questions? Reach out to Dr. Sarah Kent or Mr. Shannon Reed they are here to help!
The PSAT NMSQT is scheduled for October 21st Free of Charge for all Class of 2028 students. SAT School Day will be given on this day as well.

Student IDs & Dress Code
Dress Code is linked HERE (on digital page 11) and is in the Student Agenda as well linked to our webpage.
Please refer to Student McBearson as a visual example of dress code expectations.
IDs are part of our school dress code. All students, staff, subs, and visitors are expected to wear an ID on a lanyard around the neck during the school day. This is for the safety of everyone in our building.
Please consider these guidelines when purchasing Back to School clothes. While our first concern is that students remain in class, students who consistently defy the dress code will have consequences beginning with calling a parent or guardian to bring other clothing to school and ending with possible ISS for not following school rules.

In a true act of sportsmanship, Luis Casteneda of EHHS recognized that Gabe Bridenstine and Gavin Mendonca of CBHS were running as a unified pair(Bridenstine is non-speaking and autistic and Mendonca volunteers as a guide and typical peer partner). As the three approached the finish line, Castenda slowed his pace, waving Bridenstine and Mendoca ahead, allowing the pair to finish a step ahead as he smiled and applauded the finish. Hall County Cares and this is a beautiful example of how we foster inclusion and sportsmanship.
Congratulations to the students who were chosen to represent their class for our 2025 Homecoming Court. Homecoming will be Oct. 4th. Look for more info to come out soon.
