Welcome to Holcomb Bridge Middle School

HBMS Important School Documents

In an effort to conserve paper and man-hours, we have decided to not stuff packets of important documents for our nearly 800 students and send home to parents….documents which we sometimes find in lockers or in the halls and never make it home to parents. Instead all these documents are attached to this message. Please review and keep for your records. A few documents have been marked with an asterisk*….we ask that you please print, complete and return to your child's homeroom teacher.

TAG Screening and Referral Process

The consideration for gifted services may be reported or automatic as defined by the GaDOE Resource Manual for Gifted Education Services. The Fulton County School System screens all students for eligibility for gifted services twice a year. Fulton County uses a systematic approach to identify highly capable students who may qualify for gifted services. Please review the following documents for further information.

HOME ACCESS CENTER (HAC)

When you are viewing grades in the Home Access Center, please pay attention to the drop down window that allows you to choose which "run" you would like to view. Please be sure to select "All Runs" if you want to see the average for the semester. If you choose "1" or "2," it will only calculate the grade for that grading period. Since grades for non-Connections courses are calculated by semester, not quarter, "All Runs" will give you the correct average.
