We had a wonderful turnout at our Georgia Milestones Title I Family Night at LUES! 💙📚

Thank you to all of our families who joined us to learn more about testing expectations, important dates, and ways to support your child at home. We loved seeing parents and students working together to create encouragement posters and letters — what a great way to build confidence before testing!

We appreciate your partnership and continued support of our students.

Today in 5th grade, we didn’t just learn figurative language… we wore it. It was officially Idiom Day, and let me tell you, these students understood the assignment. From head to toe (literally), creativity was on full display! We had students who were “dressed to the nines”.
