MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL...
The district just released the preliminary reports on all the schools’ progress on the Criterion-Referenced Competency Tests (CRCT). We have much to celebrate here at Ocee: 100% of our third graders met or exceeded standards in reading and English language arts; 99% of fourth graders met or exceeded standards in reading and 100% did so in English/language arts (with a 15% increase in the number of students exceeding standards!); 99% of our fifth graders met or exceeded standards in reading and English/language arts and 100% of those students met or exceeded standards in math (with 82% exceeding standards!). Ocee is one of a very small number of schools with 100% of students meeting or exceeding in any category, let alone several, and at every grade level.
As we close this year (didn’t it seem to fly by?), I want to thank each and every one of you for sharing with us the responsibility of educating our students. We couldn’t do the good work we do here without your support and assistance. Thank you for establishing homes where education is valued, teachers are respected, and children are encouraged to create goals for learning and then expected to work towards meeting those goals.
Have a wonderful summer with your children – they have worked hard! We’ll see you all again in August!
Debbie Pernice

Success Comes in CANS not CAN-Nots!
The Council for Exceptional Children initiated Exceptional Children's Week as a means to educate the public about children with exceptionalities and gain support for special education. Since its inception, this week has served to spotlight the capabilities of children and youth with exceptionalities and the programs that support them in their communities.
In celebration, we had some exciting events at Ocee this week. Our theme this year is "Success Comes in CANS not CAN-Nots!" Students decorated a paper can that is displayed in the hallway. To help show our support for all of our exceptional children at Ocee, we held a fundraiser to raise money for items to include in a sensory room. We know that some of our students sometimes have trouble integrating all of the input they get from their senses. At times, this impacts their ability to learn. Having a place to go where they can calmly deal with sensory stressors would be beneficial. Ocee families raised over $600.00 for this cause. Thank you for your support.

Strategic Plan 2017 Information Campaign
Dr. Avossa recently launched Fulton County Schools’ Strategic Plan 2017. This is the school system’s roadmap for how FCSS aims to improve student achievement over the next five years. Three goals serve as the district’s measure for long-term student success: 1) graduation rate – 90% of Fulton students will graduate on time; 2) college readiness – 85% of Fulton’s seniors will be eligible for admission to a University System of Georgia college or university; 3) career readiness – 100% of Fulton's graduates will be work-ready certified. To learn more about the Strategic Plan 2017, view Dr. Avossa’s Information Campaign PowerPoint.
