A LETTER FROM OUR PRINCIPAL<br />

Karen Wacker,<br />

Principal<br />

Hi <strong>Eastvalley</strong> Family,<br />

The school year draws <strong>to</strong> a close which is an exciting<br />

time for all staff. It is wonderful <strong>to</strong> see <strong>the</strong> growth<br />

that all children have made over <strong>the</strong> course <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

school year and it is exciting <strong>to</strong> watch <strong>the</strong>m grow up<br />

before our eyes. As a staff, we will use <strong>the</strong> days <strong>of</strong><br />

summer <strong>to</strong> study curriculum, plan for next year, and<br />

yes, take some time <strong>to</strong> relax and reenergize.<br />

We congratulate <strong>the</strong> following staff members who<br />

will be retiring at <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> year: Mrs. Tamara<br />

Hathcoat, Mrs. Kathryn Liddicoet and Mrs. Dianne<br />

Maslak (ASP Direc<strong>to</strong>r). Congratulations <strong>to</strong> all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se<br />

ladies and we hope <strong>the</strong>y have many fun days ahead<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m in retirement. Thank you for your service <strong>to</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> students and families <strong>of</strong> <strong>Eastvalley</strong>.<br />

Thank you for your continued<br />

support <strong>of</strong> your children and<br />

<strong>the</strong> teachers at <strong>Eastvalley</strong>.<br />

Please read my blog each<br />

week for upcoming events<br />

and o<strong>the</strong>r communications.<br />

You can access it at www.<br />

eastvalleyelementary.com. You<br />

can also email me at any time<br />

<strong>to</strong> discuss <strong>issue</strong>s, concerns,<br />

questions and ideas. My email<br />

Ms. Wacker<br />

A LETTER FROM THE PTA<br />

And so ano<strong>the</strong>r school year is coming <strong>to</strong> an end.<br />

Wasn’t it just January??? I’m not sure where this year<br />

has gone.<br />

This year ends my two-year term as PTA co-president.<br />

These two years have been both challenging and<br />

fulfilling.<br />

The PTA is a much-needed and quietly busy entity.<br />

We are all volunteers that dedicate countless hours<br />

<strong>to</strong> organizing, budgeting and meeting <strong>to</strong> find ways<br />

<strong>to</strong> make our school a better place for our children <strong>to</strong><br />

learn.<br />

I would encourage you <strong>to</strong> buy a membership and get<br />

involved next year. It’s not scary and doesn’t have<br />

<strong>to</strong> take up vast amounts <strong>of</strong> time. A few hours spent<br />

helping with International night, Books for Breakfast<br />

or any <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> many programs that <strong>the</strong> PTA sponsors<br />

can make all <strong>the</strong> difference. Be a part <strong>of</strong> a great<br />

organization!!<br />

As we all head our separate ways for summer<br />

vacations, let’s remember <strong>to</strong> appreciate one ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />

and <strong>to</strong> enjoy <strong>the</strong> time we are afforded with our<br />

children. Throwing a ball, playing with <strong>the</strong> water<br />

hose or eating a whole bowl <strong>of</strong> fat-filled and sprinklecovered<br />

ice cream are <strong>the</strong> memories our children carry<br />

with <strong>the</strong>m for always.<br />

Have fun, play hard and see you next year!! Remember<br />

<strong>to</strong> continue <strong>to</strong> save your box <strong>to</strong>ps!!<br />

Melissa Chalker<br />

(Soon-<strong>to</strong>-be ex-PTA co-president)<br />

The SPLOST Vote<br />

On March 19, <strong>2013</strong>, Cobb county voters approved <strong>the</strong> Splost IV<br />

referendum which will extend <strong>the</strong> collection <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> 1% sales tax for<br />

school projects which is currently in effect through 2018. The SPLOST<br />

is projected <strong>to</strong> collect $717,844,707 over <strong>the</strong> next five years.<br />

The Special Local Option Sales Tax provides money <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> school<br />

system for school-related capital improvements that are not included<br />

in <strong>the</strong> general operating budget. The SPLOST funds can only be used<br />

for capital improvements and cannot be used for salaries or operating<br />

expenses such as busing and utilities.<br />

EASTVALLEY FOUNDATION UPDATE<br />

Summary <strong>of</strong> how we spent our money:<br />

We gave more than $8,000 <strong>to</strong> teachers <strong>to</strong><br />

use for classroom supplies as part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Parent Challenge.<br />

More than $4,000 was raised from families<br />

and we gave an additional $100 per<br />

classroom so that teachers do not have <strong>to</strong><br />

use <strong>the</strong>ir own money.<br />

Included in <strong>the</strong> SPLOST projects notebook are new and replacement<br />

school facilities, <strong>the</strong> construction <strong>of</strong> approximately 407 new<br />

classrooms throughout <strong>the</strong> district, maintenance projects such as<br />

parking lot repaving, painting and plumbing as well as funding for<br />

technology infrastructure and curriculum as well as safety and<br />

security measures.<br />

SPLOST will allow for many improvements <strong>to</strong> our schools as well<br />

eliminating <strong>the</strong> need <strong>to</strong> <strong>issue</strong> bonds <strong>to</strong> pay for <strong>the</strong>se improvements<br />

which have <strong>to</strong> be paid back with interest.<br />

To see a list <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> projects covered by SPLOST IV and a list <strong>of</strong><br />

frequently asked questions regarding SPLOST, please check <strong>the</strong> district<br />

website at www.cobbk12.org/splost/.<br />

A NEW PARTNER IN EDUCATION<br />

The Library now has $3,000 worth <strong>of</strong> new<br />

books, which were much needed.<br />

The combined efforts <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> PTA and<br />

Foundation’s Patron Drive helped fund <strong>the</strong><br />

PTA budget so that programs like Books<br />

for Breakfast are supported, <strong>the</strong> school<br />

can provide field trips for all children and<br />

we can promote community through our<br />

Family Events like International Day and<br />

Fall Festival throughout <strong>the</strong> year.<br />

Thank you <strong>to</strong> those who enriched <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

child’s education by investing in our<br />

Patron Drive last fall.<br />

We need continued support from families<br />

so we can provide even more for <strong>Eastvalley</strong><br />

next year.<br />

Boosterthon Fun Run Raises $19,000<br />

The Boosterthon Fun Run was an<br />

awesome program for our students<br />

and staff. The daily character<br />

lessons, <strong>the</strong> enthusiasm, <strong>the</strong> run<br />

itself, and <strong>the</strong> money raised will all<br />

benefit <strong>Eastvalley</strong> students in many<br />

different ways in <strong>the</strong> upcoming<br />

months. All students were able<br />

<strong>to</strong> be Boosterthon All-Stars in<br />

understanding how <strong>to</strong> make good<br />

choices and running up <strong>to</strong> 35 laps<br />

<strong>to</strong> show <strong>the</strong>ir fitness levels. The<br />

students were able <strong>to</strong> get pledges<br />

from 36 states and 16 countries<br />

in <strong>the</strong>ir efforts <strong>to</strong> raise just over<br />

$19,000 for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Eastvalley</strong> PTA.<br />

Great job, <strong>Eastvalley</strong> students!<br />

WE NEED PARENT VOLUNTEERS!<br />

Hello <strong>Eastvalley</strong> families,<br />

We are almost finished with this school year and have celebrated many<br />

fun events in 2012 and <strong>2013</strong>. <strong>Eastvalley</strong> is so fortunate <strong>to</strong> have so many<br />

wonderful volunteers <strong>to</strong> help us with all <strong>the</strong>se events and daily school<br />

activities.<br />

Perhaps you have seen an event or a program and have said, “I could help<br />

with that!” or “I’d like <strong>to</strong> co-Chair that!” We can put you in <strong>to</strong>uch with<br />

current and previous volunteers and let you know all <strong>the</strong> position entails.<br />

We welcome you and any ideas you may have <strong>to</strong> make our school great!!<br />

Much <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> overall planning for <strong>the</strong> school year calendar occurs over<br />

<strong>the</strong> summer break. In order <strong>to</strong> make sure we have volunteers for <strong>the</strong><br />

traditional events and activities, we would also like <strong>to</strong> know who would<br />

like <strong>to</strong> remain or commit <strong>to</strong> new committees for <strong>the</strong> <strong>2013</strong>-2014 school<br />

year.<br />

We’ve created a “Sign Up Genius” where you can read <strong>the</strong> committee<br />

descriptions and select where you would like <strong>to</strong> volunteer <strong>to</strong> support <strong>the</strong><br />

children and <strong>the</strong> school. If you have any questions, please email<br />

evesvolunteers@gmail.com.<br />

The link <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sign Up Genius is:<br />

To finish up our unit on heat, we<br />

Reflections for Next Year!<br />

We are very proud <strong>of</strong> our 13 winners at<br />

<strong>the</strong> county level for <strong>the</strong> PTA Reflections<br />

contest this year. Unfortunately, we had no<br />

state winners. Thanks <strong>to</strong> all students who<br />

entered <strong>the</strong> contest and thank you parents<br />

for making sure <strong>the</strong> entries were in on<br />

time.<br />

Second grade is learning about life cycles. They learned about<br />

<strong>the</strong> life cycle <strong>of</strong> plants by planting seeds and watching as<br />

<strong>the</strong>y sprouted and become plants. They anxiously watched<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir caterpillars as <strong>the</strong>y grew and built <strong>the</strong>ir chrysalises and<br />

emerged as butterflies.<br />

The <strong>the</strong>me for next year, <strong>2013</strong>-14, is<br />

"Believe, Dream, Inspire."<br />

The deadline <strong>to</strong> submit entries <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Eastvalley</strong> Reflections committee is<br />

tentatively set for September 30th.<br />

Don't wait — start working on those<br />

entries now!<br />

A Lesson in Courage<br />

On Monday, <strong>May</strong> 7th, <strong>the</strong> 4th and 5th graders<br />

were honored by a visit from civil rights pioneer<br />

Terrence Roberts. Dr. Roberts is one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> nine<br />

African-American students who integrated<br />

Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas in<br />

1957. The group <strong>of</strong> nine students is<br />

known as <strong>the</strong> "Little Rock Nine." Dr.<br />

AROUND THE COMMUNITY<br />

EASTVALLEY CUB SCOUT PACK 565 NEEDS YOU<br />

Parents <strong>of</strong> upcoming 1st - 5th<br />

grade boys are needed <strong>to</strong> help run<br />

Cub Scout Pack 565 at <strong>Eastvalley</strong><br />

Elementary.<br />

For more than 20 years, Pack 565<br />

has introduced 1st - 5th grade<br />

<strong>Eastvalley</strong> boys and <strong>the</strong>ir families<br />

<strong>to</strong> Scouting. Once a boy completes<br />

Kindergarten, he can join Cub<br />

Scouts as a member <strong>of</strong> a Tiger Cub<br />

Den with o<strong>the</strong>r 1st grade boys.<br />

A NEW PARTNER IN EDUCATION<br />

They become Wolf Cubs for <strong>the</strong><br />

2nd grade year, Bear Cubs for <strong>the</strong><br />

3rd grade year, and <strong>the</strong>n Webelos<br />

Scouts for <strong>the</strong> 4th grade year,<br />

before crossing over <strong>to</strong> Boy Scouts<br />

around February <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir 5th grade<br />

year.<br />

New Den Leaders, Assistant Den<br />

Leaders, and Pack Committee<br />

Members are needed <strong>to</strong> ensure an<br />

effective and fun scouting program<br />

<strong>Eastvalley</strong> Elementary School is proud <strong>to</strong><br />

announce a new Partner in Education!<br />

PNC Bank has joined <strong>the</strong> <strong>Eastvalley</strong> <strong>Eagle</strong><br />

family and we are grateful for <strong>the</strong> support.<br />

PNC Bank is located at 4895 Lower Roswell<br />

579-0199.<br />

Please consider PNC for your banking needs<br />

and financial services.<br />

is provided for <strong>the</strong> boys during this<br />

journey.<br />

It is important that we get new<br />

leaders trained and in place now<br />

so Dens can be formed and hit <strong>the</strong><br />

ground running in <strong>the</strong> Fall. Moms<br />

and Dads and Grandparents are<br />

welcome. Former experience with<br />

Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, or Girl<br />

Scouts is a plus, but not required.<br />

The main requirement is an<br />

enthusiasm for introducing boys<br />

<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> joys <strong>of</strong> Cub Scouting and<br />

a willingness <strong>to</strong> put in <strong>the</strong> effort<br />

<strong>to</strong> be an effective Adult Leader.<br />

Volunteers who fill <strong>of</strong>ficial Adult<br />

Leader roles must submit a BSA<br />

Adult Application Form, pass<br />

a background check, and take<br />

Youth Protection Training, along<br />

with o<strong>the</strong>r role-specific training<br />

(provided and/or paid for by <strong>the</strong><br />

Pack).<br />
