Spring Semester Update:
Hi Parents/Guardians/Students! Please look over the following topics because we have a LOT to update and clue in on. Pre-LGPE Concert: This concert is NEXT TUESDAY, March 7th at the Performing Arts Centre. This performance will be in conjunction with Smokey Road Middle School choirs. Students arrive at the Centre dressed by 6:00 wearing their full uniform described below. All students will need to attend. If there are any scheduling conflicts with your student, you must contact me as soon as possible in order for them to receive an alternate assignment (if the absence is excused). Concert will start at 6:30 and end around 7:30. Please have appropriate form of transportation for your student if you are unable to attend. Uniform Reminder 6th Grade: Blue polos, black pants, black socks/tights/knee highs (no ankles showing), Black shoes 7th/8th Grade:
MIOSM date change: Due to over scheduling at the high school, the Music In Our Schools Month Concert for our 8th graders will be moved to March 30th. All the information about the concert time and bus transportation for the students remains the same. Field trip forms will go home closer to time. LGPE dates: We will be headed to Harps Crossing Baptist Church in Fayetteville on Wednesday, March 29th (6th/7th Graders) and Thursday, March 30th (8th Graders). We will leave the school in the morning after announcements, have students perform, eat a Chick-fil-a box lunch (will cost students $5, or they may bring their lunch), and travel back to the school by 2:00 PM. Family members are more than welcome to watch the performances! If you’re interested in chaperoning for the field trip, please read the information below! Volunteers: I NEED LGPE CHAPERONES! If you are available during the day for the dates provided above, I would love to have you come with us on our trip! Any parent chaperone attending the event will get a free Chick-fil-a meal. I will send home extra parent volunteer forms in the next week or so, but you can also sign up for various volunteer opportunities listed on the Calendar & Volunteering portion of your student’s account on our Charms Website (www.charmsoffice.com/ school code ‘evans’). You may also email me directly at [email protected]. Please look to Chorus Online information below for more assistance on signing up. Social Media & Chorus Online:

Parents/Guardians,
From the feedback I’ve collected in regards to parent availability, we will be moving the concert to May 19th. Again I apologize for any inconvenience this decision places upon your family. The concert time will remain the same 7:00PM and will last no longer than an hour; in addition, the concert venue has been moved to Unity Baptist Church located on 311 Smokey Rd, Newnan, GA. We will have an after school rehearsal Tuesday, May 17th for all students able to attend. Parents are more than welcome to come to the after school rehearsal and watch the run through of songs on that Tuesday. The day of the concert students will stay after school, eat, and ride buses over to the church for an early rehearsal in the space before their concert. Those of you still willing, I will also need chaperones/volunteers to help with the kids on both days: Tuesday the 17th as well as Thursday the 19th. Again, I apologize for the confusion and know that I’ve done my best to try and accommodate everyone. In the future, we will not have as many large conflicts to deal with and last minute changes will no longer be an issue. If you have any questions, comments, or issues, please do not hesitate to email me. I am more than happy to help to the best of my ability. Plan on receiving a few more emails from me in the next day or so. Thank you for your patience. Chandler Scott A Festive Alleluia
