Lovinggood MS PTSA eNews - Message from Ms. Wilson

Lovinggood PTSA eNews! 
Lovinggood Middle School Parents,
From time to time our children make poor choices in their lives. It is incumbent on the adults that work with children to function daily with their eyes wide open. Last week one of our own students made a poor choice and brought an illegal substance to school. Due to an observant administrative staff and a school of honest and honorable students, the substance was reported and retrieved before lunch was over.
Parents need to know that the first line of defense to keep Lovinggood Middle School drug free is well educated students that have supportive parents. It is a pleasure to work with students that take responsibility for their school and want the best for their fellow students.

Lovinggood MS PTSA eNews - Statement of the Cobb County School District regarding Gov. Perdue’s proposed budget
by
WebWiz
on Fri 15 Jan 2010 10:04 PM EST
Lovinggood PTSA eNews! 
Statement of the Cobb County School District regarding Gov. Perdue’s proposed budget
We are currently reviewing Gov. Perdue’s proposed budget announced Friday and its call for an additional 3 percent cut in K-12 funding this budget year. The proposal includes the requirement that all state employees, including teachers, take three furlough days before June 30, 2010. The Governor’s proposed budget will be considered by the Legislature and likely will undergo multiple revisions before it reaches final approval. Nevertheless, these recommendations provide a clear picture of the budget crisis that is impacting our state and public education. Approximately 50 percent of the Cobb County School District’s revenue comes from state funding. These proposed cuts will come on top of $77 million that has already been cut from the current Cobb County School District budget. These cuts eliminated instructional programs, lowered employee salaries 2 percent, and reduced the district’s reserve fund by $10 million.
Once the state budget is approved, and as the school district begins its own Fiscal Year 2011 budget development, all options to address the continued decline in state funding will be considered. The Cobb County School District does maintain one advantage regarding additional furlough days. Most Cobb teachers would have been required to make up three missed days as a result of school being closed in September 2009 due to flooding, and for the Jan. 8, 2010 snow day. If the state furlough is approved, most Cobb teachers would no longer be required to make up those three missed days.
The school district will continue to keep staff and the public informed as state and local budget development proceeds.

Hey, Hey, it’s FCA!
We’d like to encourage all of our middle school families to consider attending the movie “To Save A Life” on January 22nd. It deals with teenage suicide and shows how one student CAN make a difference and bring about changes in their school. This is a movie about reality. It isn’t watered down. You’ll be exposed to what really happens in the lives of teenagers across our country. You may be shocked by what you see and think it isn’t happening in our community. I promise you, it is. The writers for this film said they make no apologies for the content because they are tired of burying students. They are trying to reach the students on their level. We invite you to read the movie reviews and make the choice for yourself. We also encourage you to see this movie with your student and allow it to open up conversations between you. Teens across the country are talking about the impact this movie has made on their lives. If it saves “just one” it will be worth it.
