Friday at Five
April 3, 2025
Spring Break is April 6 – 10. No school for students.
Looking for something for your student to do over spring break? Welcome to the Cobb County School District’s Spring Learning Collection. These collections include instructional activities students can complete during Spring Break. There are no grades associated with these activities as they serve as an optional supplement to the instruction your student receives throughout the school year. Activities are available for each day of Spring Break and can be completed at a time convenient for the family. Click the link below and enter the access key: SLC2026
See the following links to access the activities. This is a great review for the upcoming Milestones!
