Dear Parents,
We're so excited that our school will be participating in an in-school Penguin Patch® Holiday Shop to spread holiday cheer!
Penguin Patch® Holiday Shop is a fun way for students to shop for family members and experience the spirit of giving while learning to earn, budget, and save! Our shop will be open from December 2 to December 6.
Your student will have over 100 delightful gifts to choose from, all ranging in price from $0.50 to $12. This is an amazing opportunity to empower your student to choose, purchase, and give gifts to their loved ones!
Happy Holidays,

GCT Patrons,
Last spring, Arkansas students in grades 3-10 took a new state test called ATLAS. This new test is now aligned to the current Arkansas grade level standards. The results are available from the state and accessible to parents via the ATLAS Students and Families Portal. https://atlasportal.org/families.html
For the current school year, students in grades K-3 have taken screener tests. These results are NOT yet available from the state, but will be accessible to parents very soon via the ATLAS Students and Families Portal. https://atlasportal.org/families.html
When you access the portal, you will use your child's 6-digit access code to obtain information on your child's test data. This code was sent home today with your child and will also be available at parent/teacher conferences. If you are unable to attend parent/teacher conferences, your child's report card and access code will be sent home next Tuesday, October 22nd.
Attached is the performance level descriptors for grades 3-10 and the K-3 screener descriptors.
