Principal's Message
 s

Hello Spartan Families, 

Spring Break is upon us. This is the last week before our break begins. We only have 6 weeks of school remaining and less for our seniors. We ask that parents please continue to check your student's grades and communicate with the counselors and their teachers. 

The Drop/Add period for 2025-26 is ongoing and the links are below. The information is also on the CHS website.  

The calendar for the remainder of the year is also attached below. It contains dates for testing. 

If your student is taking Advanced Placement (AP) tests, their district-issued laptop must have Windows 11 installed.
Here’s what to do at home:
  • Have your student connect their school laptop to power.
  • Restart Windows so any downloaded updates can install.
  • If Windows 11 has been downloaded, the restart may take up to 2 hours, so plan this when they won’t need their laptop.
To check if your student has Windows 10 or Windows 11, follow the steps attached below to identify.
If they are unable to download Windows 11, students need to inform their AP teacher as soon as possible so that we can schedule a tech appointment and avoid issues during AP testing.
Thank you for your help in making sure students are prepared for testing. If you have any questions, please reach out to John.Armour@cobbk12.org



The Student Behavior Contract Letter was shared with all parents/guardians at This is Sparta. All students received a copy on the first day of school and it was reviewed with students during the grade level assemblies. A copy of the letter is in the attachment below and will remain for the remainder of the school year. Please review the letter with your student. 

Please note that there is a change this year to the Early Checkout Time. The Early Checkout Time has been changed to 2:45 PM.
