Curriculum Night - Thursday, February 5th

You're invited February 5th for a high-impact evening focused on student wellness and academic success. To kick things off, our Dunwoody Strong team is hosting a pre-event social with free pizza, so come hungry and arrive early! 

Before curriculum night and classroom rotations begin, we are hosting two vital sessions designed specifically for parents:

  • Hidden in Plain Sight Exhibit: The Georgia National Guard Counterdrug Task Force will be outside the school with their traveling exhibition 4:30 - 7:30 PM. This is an adults-only walk-through of a mock teen bedroom, teaching you how to spot drugs, alcohol, and vaping products hidden in everyday items. You'll also learn warning signs of risky behaviors and how to start conversations with teens. More info.

  • Guest Speaker - Knowledge is Power: At 5:00 PM, Kenny Haney, Community Health Advocate Lead for Northside Hospital’s Cancer Institute, will be speaking on the growing vaping and e-cigarette epidemic, risks, and prevention strategies. More info.

Please see the below schedule of events, including the start of Curriculum Night at 6:00 PM. We look forward to seeing you as we partner to keep our students safe and informed.

We need an extra set of hands on February 5th to help with traffic flow, assist parents lining up for the exhibition, serve pizza, and clean up afterwards. A variety of shifts are available between 4:00 PM and 7:30 PM. Please click here to sign up.

 

AP Exam Proctors Needed

Our students work hard in preparation for their Advanced Placement (AP) exams. To ensure a smooth and successful testing environment, we need your help!
