Tuesday, February 21st: Jersey Night!
Please join us from 5pm - 7pm during Chick-fil-A Spirit Night! It is a great time to see friends, to get dinner, and to support our school! A percentage of the proceeds directly benefit our school: providing enrichment/field trip opportunities for students and staff development to teachers.
SOPE CREEK STUDENTS DO!!!
The 2012 Sope Creek Talent Show was an AMAZING production! We saw students in Kindergarten through Fifth Grade WOW us with talents that ranged from a capella singing to piano performances to dance to magic to poetry recitation to much more! Please check out the pictures of our students as they took command of the stage and tapped into all of their SMARTS!
Thank you to the PTA Talent Show Committee chaired by Natalie Rogers!

It’s time to honor our heroes!
Honoring Our Heroes is a writing contest developed in 1995 by the Eastern Cobb County Council of PTAs. The program was designed to encourage students to discover “real life” heroes who have shown generosity, trust, persistence, dedication, leadership, creativity, caring, bravery, imagination, service, gentleness, courage, or compassion. The creators of the program wanted students to redefine the heroes they saw portrayed in the media – cartoon characters, professional athletes, rock stars, etc. – and instead recognize the true heroes in their lives. Our real heroes are grandparents, parents, siblings, doctors, policemen, soldiers, teachers, and anyone else that has made a real and positive impact on a student’s life.
Entries will be judged on the student’s ability to articulate the qualities of the hero and to describe the manner in which the hero has impacted the student’s life.
For an entry form, go to http://ecccpta.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/HOH-Entry-2012.pdf. Entries can be submitted to the Heroes basket in the office. If possible, please include a picture of the hero with each essay.
Deadline for entries is February 17, 2012. Questions? Please contact Wendy Walden: wendywalden@hotmail.com or Debbi Papenhagen: papenhagendeb@yahoo.com
