Hi Eastvalley Family,
I hope each of you enjoyed your Thanksgiving holiday break. It was a great week to relax and spend time with family and friends. The weather was good for the most part so I hope you took advantage of that. Today's weather and tomorrow's weather will give us all something to talk about for a while. Please, as always, listen to your local TV/radio to hear of any changes in the Cobb County Schools' schedule. You can text CCSD to 84700 to receive texts with important information from Cobb County Schools. You can also go to www.cobbk12.org, scroll down to the end of "Quick Links" to join.
The uniform surveys have been tallied. We received a total of 381 surveys. 53% say they would want students to wear uniforms, 45% would not like students to wear uniforms and 2% had no preference. Again, thank you to those who took the time to take the survey. Your input was very important to us in whether we should move ahead with any further research. Again, there was no school reason for the survey other than to see if parents wanted it. There's no discipline reason, no bullying reason, no "Miss Wacker wants it" reason behind the survey. There have been many inquiries about wearing them, so we asked. Sometimes, things really are as simple as they seem. As you can see from our total, there is no clear majority either way, so this issue is being put to rest. We will not pursue further research into uniforms as an option at Eastvalley at this time.
