Hello Spartan Families, 

We hope that all of our families are enjoying this Easter weekend with your families. We have included two links below about articles that were written in the March edition of the Smyrna Vinings magazine about the Campbell football program and the Campbell Advanced Placement Scholars (CAPS) Program.

There are two flyers attached below for End of Course Bootcamps that will be held by the Algebra I and Biology teachers. We will begin testing for End of Course Tests this week. 

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
