Please be sure to read, sign, and return the permission slip as soon as possible, as chocolate cannot be sent home without it.

Tolbert Elementary kindergarten teacher Kayleigh Jones and co-teacher Jasmin Vazquez worked with students today during a phonics lesson focused on the “ox” sound. Students practiced recognizing and applying the sound as they built early reading and language skills through hands-on learning.

CCRPI scores are calculated using multiple indicators that measure student achievement, progress, readiness, and closing gaps. A key component of the CCRPI is student performance and growth on state assessments, including the Georgia Milestones End-of-Grade (EOG) and End-of-Course (EOC) tests. Additional factors include graduation rates, progress of English Learners, and indicators of college and career readiness.
Progress – ELA & Math: Tracks student growth over time on the Georgia Milestones in English Language Arts and Mathematics, regardless of their starting point. It shows how much academic progress students are making year to year.
Tolbert Elementary’s 2025–2026 Yearbook is now available at a special pre-sale price of just $25 through December 31.
