Attention GWES 5th Grade Families:
Join us in person at Glenarden Woods on Thursday, January 23rd from 6pm-7pm to learn more about the TAG Center Middle School Program. TAG coordinators from Greenbelt, Walker Mill, and Kenmoor Middle Schools will be in attendance!
5th grade students who have successfully participated in the TAG Center program will be given continuity to their TAG Center Middle School Program based off of their address in SchoolMax. Should you not elect to have your child participate in the TAG Program, the student can be scheduled for Honors Level classes at their neighborhood middle school program.
Letters of Continuity will be distributed from Pupil Accounting in mid January each year. The letters will be double sided. The front page will let you know what your speciality TAG middle school is and will also show your neighborhood boundary middle school. It also states: “This offer and placement are contingent on you continuing to reside at your address.” The letter will have you indicating whether you accept or decline the program placement. If no response is received by this date, they will interpret that you are declining placement.
In order for your child to attend, accepted student’s parent/guardian must complete a new ScribEnroll Application by visiting https://pgcpsmdc.scriborder.com/, then selecting “Transitional Enrollment” and uploading the updated proof of residence for Glenarden Woods ES. (Due dates will be given and should be seriously considered.)
If you select the neighborhood boundary school, your child will complete enrollment and course selection forms this spring at their present school, Glenarden Woods Elementary. Please understand that when this selection is made you will relinquish your place in this Specialty Program. Questions regarding continuity should be directed to your child’s current school, TAG Coordinator, Mrs. Amanda Soto. amanda.soto@pgcps.org
Mrs. Soto will be holding a “Life as a TAG Middle Schooler” with the 3 schools GWES usually feeds into: Greenbelt Middle, Walker Mill Middle, and Kenmoor Middle. A date for this event will be shared with 5th grade families.
