Hey, Hey,
it’s almost time for...
FCA!
 
It is hard to believe that it is time to kick off another school year, but August 11th will be here before we know it.  We are already beginning to make plans for another awesome year of FCA at Lovinggood. 
 
There will be some changes this year in FCA due to a Cobb County administrative rule.  We’d like the opportunity to explain the changes to you and share with you how you can help make FCA great this year.  We have lots of opportunities for parent volunteers that are only a once a month commitment. 
 
We’d like to invite you to a parent meeting the at will be held at Lovinggood Middle School on Thursday, August 7th at 4:30 p.m.  Please make plans to attend and help us make FCA at Lovinggood great.

Board Approves SPLOST III Resolution
Moves Forward With Capital Needs Proposal, Sept. 16 Referendum
 

The Cobb County Board of Education unanimously approved a five-year, $798 million capital improvements plan for schools to be funded by an extension of the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST). The current SPLOST expires on Dec. 31, 2008 and can be extended only with approval by Cobb County voters. The school board approved the plan as part of a resolution calling for a SPLOST III public referendum to be held Sept. 16, 2008. A SPLOST is a one-cent sales tax on all retail goods sold in Cobb County.

“The Board of Education is united in its belief that our public school facilities will always have capital needs, and that the best way to pay for those needs is through a sales tax supported by all consumers,” said Board Chair Betty Gray. “The SPLOST is a common-sense way to repair and improve our facilities without burdening the taxpayers with long-term debt. Through the efficient management of the current and prior SPLOST programs, our school board has proved the effectiveness of this funding mechanism to provide the best possible learning environment for the children of Cobb County.”

The proposal to improve infrastructure and classrooms throughout the District’s 126 facilities would be the third five-year SPLOST program for Cobb County schools.

More information about the Cobb County School District’s SPLOST programs, including the entire SPLOST III proposal, is available at http://www.cobbk12.org/splost.
