Title One Tips
What is a "Compact? If you are like most people, you might think a "compact" is a small car. Here at EPMS, a "compact" is a contractual agreement, which was
sent home the first week of school (inside First Week packets). Our goal is to have 100% of
Parent-School Compacts returned to school by the end of September. To date, only half have been returned. "It's Time to Titan Up"... on these compacts! Please use the following link
http://tinyurl.com/CompactEPMS-2015-English to print out the signature page for both you and your child to sign and return to the front office. Let's get this done before the end of September!
If you have any questions, or would like to know if we received your child's compact, please email Title I Parent Liaison (Lisa O'Hanlon Cowles) at
ohanlon@fultonschools.org

End of the Day Dismissal
Parking in the parking lot on the bus side poses a safety concern with parents and students walking between the buses to get to their cars. I ask that you park on the carpool loading side during dismissal. The safest way to pick up your child every day is to pull into the carpool line and pick up your student curbside. If you choose to walk up to the building to wait for your child at dismissal, please stand on the carpool side of the building so we can free up the space on the bus side for students to safely and quickly board their buses. Thank you for your support and cooperation.
