Testing Volunteers Needed

We are in serious need of volunteers to help proctor our End of Grade Tests (EOGs).  Eligible volunteers include anyone over 18 who is not currently enrolled in a k-12 public school (parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, siblings, neighbors...)  Proctors serve as assistants to test administrators, they are basically a second set of hands in the room to help make sure everything runs smoothly.  Volunteer proctors will need to attend training sessions prior to serving as a test proctor and register as a volunteer.  Proctors will need to report to testing sessions at 9:15AM and should plan to be available until 12:30PM (although some sessions may end earlier).  Please note: for test security reasons, family members may not volunteer in their child's grade level.  We are in need of proctors for the following dates/grade levels (while we need volunteers all dates, 5/26, 5/27, and 6/3 are currently the greatest needs):
Thursday, 5/26-3rd Grade, 5th Grade 
Friday, 5/27-3rd Grade 
Tuesday, 5/31-5th Grade
Wednesday, 6/1-5th Grade
Thursday, 6/2-4th Grade
Friday, 6/3-4th Grade
 
Proctor training will take place Tuesday, 5/17 and Thursday, 5/19 from 9-10AM and 2:30-3:30PM (volunteers need to only attend one session...if you are not able to attend training these dates, we can work out another time).
Please contact our testing coordinator, Christy Bigelow (cbigelow@wcpss.net or 919-694-0555) with questions or to volunteer!

First Annual Abbotts Creek Field Day! A Note From Mrs. Sunday:


Our 1st Annual Field Day is right around the corner.  This will be a fun event filled with games, fitness, and celebration!  Classes will work through 14 activities mostly outside.  PreK-2 will be from 9:30-12:10 and 3-5 will be in the afternoon from 12:40-3:20.  It will most likely be a warm day so please have your child wear: Athletic shoes(no crocs, sandals, or flip flops) , shorts, hat (optional), and a T-shirt..  Please have your child put on sunscreen before school.  Because we have a few water events, it may be a good idea to bring a change of clothes.  Since it will most likely be warm, students should bring a water bottle so that they can stay hydrated.  Please label your child's water bottle with their name.  We will have a water station where students can fill up their water bottles.  

In order to make this day a success we need a lot of volunteers.  If you are interested in helping on on June 7, 2016 please use the following link to sign up:http://www.signupgenius.com/go/30e0f4eaaab2da6ff2-aces/ You must be a registered volunteer. (You must have signed up in the library to be a volunteer.)  If you have not done this, it takes about 10 working days to be approved.  If you have any questions please email me at
