10 Characteristics of 
a Great Etowah Student
1. A great student.....ASKS QUESTIONS.
It is truly the only way a teacher knows whether you really understand 
something.
2. A great student is a.....HARD WORKER.
The hardest working students will ultimately be the most successful in 
life!
3. A great student is....INVOLVED.
Being involved in the classroom and in extra‐curricular activities can help 
a student gain confidence which can improve academic success!
4. A great student is a.....LEADER.
For some, leadership skills are innate, but for others...not so much. The 
good news is that these skills can be developed over time!
5. A great student is.....MOTIVATED.
The best students are the ones that are motivated to be successful, 
because they want to be at school, they want to learn, and they want to 
succeed! 
6. A great student is a.....PROBLEM SOLVER.
The world is becoming more complex every day and those students that 
are able to think critically and solve problems for themselves will be 
more prepared to face the challenges of the future!
7. A great student.....SEIZES OPPORTUNITIES.
The best students take advantage of the opportunities they are afforded 
and value the education that they have an opportunity to receive.
8. A great student is a.....SOLID CITIZEN.
Students who are well behaved and follow the rules and procedures 
have a better chance at maximizing their learning potential, as well as 
being more likely to learn more than their counterparts!
9. A great student has a.....SUPPORT SYSTEM.
Behind every great student is someone that took the time to care!
10. A great student is.....TRUSTWORTHY.
Being trustworthy is a quality that will endear you not
only to your teachers, but also to your classmates! 
IMPORTANT ATTENDANCE POLICY 
INFORMATION
STUDENTS WHO ATTEND SCHOOL REGULARLY 
AND PUNCTUALLY LEARN MORE AND ENJOY A 
MORE SUCCESSFUL ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE 
THAN THOSE WHO DO NOT. AT ETOWAH, 
CONSISTENT ATTENDANCE AND PROMPTNESS 
ARE AN EXPECTATION.
HIGH SCHOOL 
ATTENDANCE
is taken during 
each class 
period.  
Attendance 
tracking is 
done by class 
period rather 
than the full 
day.
Student Appeals
Any student having a passing grade with 7 
or more absences (excused or unexcused) 
in a semester class will receive no credit for 
that class unless the appeal is approved by 
the Attendance Committee and the 
Principal. 
Excused Absences
As permitted under state law and State Board of Education policies, a 
student’s absence, tardy or early checkout may be excused for the following 
reasons:
A. personal illness and when attendance in school would endanger their 
health or the health of others
B. serious illness or death of an immediate family member
C. mandated by order of governmental agencies, including pre‐induction 
physical examinations for service in the armed forces, or by a court order
D. recognized religious holidays
E. conditions that render attendance impossible or hazardous to one’s 
health or safety
F. registering to vote or voting, for a period not to exceed one day
G. parent/guardian military deployment per guidelines
Excuses for absences will be provided by the parent/guardian in writing 
within 5 days of the student returns to school, and will contain the student’s 
name, date of the absence, reason for the absence, and the signature of the 
parent/guardian. 
Please consult the CCSD Student/Parent 
Handbook for more detailed information 
on attendance and student appeals.

FAQ of Parents of Rising 9th
 grade Students 
Class of 2020 
1. How are classes assigned and when?  
The placement process begins in February. Classes are assigned based on a student’s current classes at E.T. 
Booth.  We do a “roll”, which means typical courses roll from one level to the next based on a student’s 
current grades, test scores and courses taken as an 8th
 grader.  Health and Personal Fitness are then added to 
the course request.   Students then receive elective sheets in order to choose their electives. These electives 
are then entered into the system generating a course request. 
2. When do we go over our student’s 9th
 grade schedule? 
In late March, an Initial Course Request is sent home for families to review and provide feedback.  There will 
be a Final Course Request sent home again in April for verification.  Throughout the spring and summer, we 
continue to adjust and complete the scheduling process. Students’ schedules are posted on the CCSD Student 
Portal in late July. 
3. Will my child need a math support class if he/she is an average student? 
No.  Placement in Algebra Support is based on students’ grades from their 8th
 grade math class, most recent 
math EOG, and math ITBS scores. Additionally, math support may be recommended by an IEP or RTI team.  
4. If my child is in advanced classes now – how do we change some classes to grade level? 
On the Initial Course Request that comes in Marche, check “edit” next to the recommended advanced courses 
and indicate a desire for regular or “on‐level”. It’s wise to balance your child’s course selection between 
advanced and regular level courses.   
5. How do students qualify for Honors and/or AP classes? 
Rubrics are used to determine the placement of any student in honors/AP level courses.  Additionally, any 
student regardless if they are gifted or not, can work their way into honors/AP courses.  We are happy to 
review this data with parents who are requesting placement decisions that differ from our recommendation.  
6. What is the average AP/Honors class size?  
25‐32 students per class 
7. How are grades weighted for Honors/AP classes for the HOPE Scholarship? 
The HOPE Scholarship GPA is calculated on a 4.0 scale and uses only high school core classes: English, Math, 
Science, Social Studies and World Language. Middle school courses are not used to calculate HOPE GPA. 
 Honors classes are NOT weighted for the purposes of HOPE.  AP Courses are given an additional 0.5 weight 
per credit earned (i.e., a grade of B in an AP course would be translated to a 3.5 for the HOPE GPA 
calculation), however, no grade may be weighted above a 4.0.  This means that an A in an AP course is still 
calculated as a 4.0, and is NOT calculated as a 4.5.

Please visit www.gacollege411.org for updated information about the HOPE Scholarship from the Georgia 
Student Finance Commission. HOPE calculations and eligibility frequently changes, so utilize this website for 
up‐to‐date information.  
8. If a student utilizes a Hope Grant and completes the program, are they still eligible for a Hope 
Scholarship and to receive an additional degree? 
All questions relating to HOPE scholarships need to be directed to the Georgia Student Finance Commission 
by emailing gacollege411@gsfc.org or calling 1‐800‐505‐4732. 
9. What courses are necessary to meet the HOPE requirements for rigor?   
The HOPE Scholarship has determined that in order to qualify for HOPE, along with maintaining the 
required GPA, a student must also have taken 4 of these types of courses prior to graduation:  
 Advanced math ‐ Algebra 2, or an equivalent or higher course.  
 Advanced science ‐ Chemistry, Physics, Biology II, or an equivalent.   
 Courses taken at a unit of the University System of Georgia in core subjects where such courses are 
not remedial and developmental courses. 
 Advanced foreign language courses taken at an eligible high school or taken for degree level credit at 
an eligible postsecondary institution. 
 Advanced placement courses in core subjects. 
 
Courses currently offered at EHS which meet the rigor requirements: 
Math  Science  World Language 
Calculus  Human Anatomy/ Physiology French II, III and IV 
 Honors Multivariable Calculus  Chemistry German II, III and IV
Advanced Mathematical Decision Making  Physics Spanish II, III, and IV
Algebra II  Forensic Science Chinese II and III 
Accelerated Geometry/Algebra II  Scientific Research 1  
GSE Pre‐Calculus  Scientific Research 2  
Statistical Reasoning    
AP English Language & Composition; AP English Literature & Composition; AP Calculus AB; AP Calculus BC; AP 
Statistics; AP Biology; AP Physics I, AP Physics II; AP Physics C: Mechanics; AP Physics C: Electricity and 
Magnetism; AP Chemistry; AP Environmental Science; AP Computer Science; AP World History; AP Human 
Geography; AP United States History; AP Psychology; AP Government/Politics: United States;

10. If my child is taking high school level science in the 8th
 grade, do they take Biology in the 9th
 grade 
or do they move on to Chemistry? 
Students who take High School Physical Science in the 8th
 grade are typically placed into Honors Biology. 
Students then continue in Chemistry in the 10th
 grade. Additional science options are available in 11th
 grade. 
Physical Science in the 8th
 grade is taken for high school credit. 
11. If a student is currently taking high school Math, Science and/or a World Language 8th
 grade, do 
these final grades go towards their high school GPA? 
Yes, high school courses taken in 8th
 grade count in the ranking of students and towards a student’s NGA. 
However, this course work does not count toward the HOPE GPA. 
12. How are 9th
 grade elective choices determined? 
EHS counselors visited current 8th
 grade students at ET Booth on February 8th
 and shared information on 
credits, graduation requirements, attendance and tardy policies.  A 9th
 grade elective course description list 
was sent via e‐mail to all 8th
 grade students and parents.  Students were given an Elective Registration Sheet 
to select and rank, in order of preference, electives they would prefer to take during the 2016 ‐17 school year. 
This form was returned to ETBMS and EHS counselors entered that information as student requests in the 
student information system.  EHS counselors keep the student course requests on file in the counseling office.   
13. What options are there for intramural sports? 
There are no intramural programs at the high school level. 
14. Does weight training count as a P.E. requirement? 
No. Personal Fitness and Health are the two required PE courses students must take in order to receive a high 
school diploma. Each is a semester long and they are typically taken in the 9th
 grade.  
15. What are P.E./Health requirements for student athletes? 
The only "required" classes are Personal Fitness and Health (both taken in 9th grade). All other physical 
education classes are electives. Typically, students involved in interscholastic athletics will choose to take 
weight training to prepare for the season. 
16. Can my student take more than 1 P.E. course? 
Yes, Physical Education courses are considered miscellaneous electives and can be taken in additional to the 
Health/Personal Fitness requirement.  A student must have 4 units of miscellaneous electives to graduate.  
17. Can my student take more than 1 World Language during High School?  
Yes.  However, many universities expect students to have at least two, and preferably three, consecutive 
years in the same World Language.  As such, students are encouraged to complete at least two consecutive 
years in one language before starting another.  
 
 
4
18. How do I get the ADAP certificate required to satisfy the driver’s license/learning permit 
requirements? 
The Alcohol and Drug Awareness Program or ADAP is required for students to obtain a learner’s driving permit 
or a driver’s license.  This is completed in the required Health course.  Students earning 3 units of JROTC credit 
will meet the Personal Fitness and Health course requirement and the JROTC program includes the ADAP as 
well.   
19. Will students remain in the same TAA/homeroom for all four years of high school? 
It is our goal for students to remain with the same Teacher as Advisor or homeroom teacher.  However, due 
to enrollment numbers and teacher allotments, students’ homerooms sometimes change.  Students who do 
not meet promotion requirements before the beginning of the next school year will not move to the 
next grade level homeroom; they will move to a retained homeroom the following year. 
20. How long is TAA/homeroom and how often do they go? 
TAA is once a week, 28 minutes long, and is immediately following 1st
 period on Mondays.  
21. What are the instructional hours of the school day? 
 
8:15 A.M. – 3:15 P.M.  
  
22. Do parents have a say in their child’s four year educational plan? 
Yes, we welcome parental input regarding a student’s four year plan. This is team effort between you, your 
student and your student’s school counselor.  Although Graduation requirements are not negotiable, there 
are options “within” the required core courses. A parent may not choose a specific teacher, class period, or 
lunch period for a student.   
23. Which subjects have 4 year requirements? 
The following subject areas require 4 units to graduate: 
Literature/Composition 
Mathematics 
Science 
Please refer to the Graduation Requirements for the Class of 2020 shared at Parent University 
24. Do all teachers maintain websites with homework/classwork/test information? 
Yes, all teachers are required to maintain updated ASPEN pages which include specific information. If 
something is missing on a teacher’s page, please contact the teacher directly.  
25. Is there before and/or after school tutoring and can any teacher tutor? 
Yes, most teachers offer tutoring/help sessions before school or at the conclusion of the school day. Students 
can tutor with any teacher.  Please refer to teacher websites for the specific information.  Tutoring is also 
available on Saturday’s for any current student.  
 
 
5
26. Are tutors available if grades are above 73%? 
Yes, schedule a tutoring appointment with the teacher.  Please refer to teacher ASPEN pages for information 
on an individual tutoring schedule. 
27. Are there tutors or mentors who keep my child “on track” for graduation? 
 
Yes, Guidance Counselors monitor each student’s progress towards graduation.  Also, the students’ Teacher 
as Advisor (TAA) teacher is another caring adult in the building who reminds them about course work and 
graduation requirements. 
 
28. Will a syllabus or course expectations be provided at the beginning of each semester? 
Yes, all year‐long course syllabi are distributed at the beginning of the year. If a course is a semester long 
course, then the syllabus will be given out at the beginning of the fall/spring semester. 
29. How many people on the EHS staff hold advanced degrees? 
107 teachers have advanced degrees:  Master degrees: 63, specialist degrees:33, and doctorate degrees:11. 
30. Are students still required to take the High School Graduation Writing Test (GHSWT)? 
No, this test is no longer a requirement for incoming high school students.  
31. What are GA Milestones Tests (EOCs)? 
GA Milestones Tests (EOCs) assess student achievement in 8 state adopted curriculum core classes. Each 
exam is administered upon the completion of the course and each exam is calculated as 20% of the overall 
course grade. Courses are not considered complete if the student does not take this state mandated exam. 
The courses are:  
9th
 Grade Literature      Geometry 
Algebra I        U.S. History 
Biology         Physical Science 
American Literature      Economics 
32. Why do some of the goals in the EHS School Improvement Plan address test scores? 
The 2015 School Improvement Plan does not include testing goals. The goals for the current school year are:  
 Increase the graduation rate.  
 Analyze student performance data and use research based instructional practices (varied DOK levels, 
summarizing strategies and formative instructional practice) to improve teaching and learning.   
 Improve the student attendance rate, faculty & staff attendance rate, and student discipline rates.   
The entire 2015‐16 EHS School Improvement Plan (SIP) can be found on the EHS website. 
33. Is there a place where we can see SAT scores divided by regular and advanced students?   
No, SAT scores are not divided in this manner. 
 
 
6
34. Does EHS offer the ACT? 
Yes, the ACT test is offered several times each school year. Additionally, Princeton Review offers preparatory 
classes on the EHS campus.   
 
35. Is there grade recovery and if so, what is the process? 
Yes, grade and test recovery options are left up to individual teachers and/or departments.  Grade recovery 
can take many forms, including retaking an alternate version of a test, utilizing APEX computer‐based learning 
to improve a grade on a specific unit, or other options as decided by the teacher or department.  By utilizing 
grade recovery and unit recovery, students may be able to improve a failing grade to passing.  This would 
avoid having to retake the course incurring additional time and expense to the student. 
36. What happens if my child fails a class? 
Failed classes can prevent students from being promoted to the next grade level and ultimately, from 
graduating on time.  Students who fail a class that is needed to meet graduation requirements must recover 
the credit by retaking the course.  Credit Connect using Apex, Summer School or Polaris Evening School are all 
options for credit recovery.  An attendance appeal process will be completed for students who have a final 
course grade that is passing, but did not receive credit in the class due to excessive absences.  
37.  What is the cost of course recovery?  
At this time, County sponsored course recovery courses are $200.00 per .5 credit. Other online options vary 
in cost. Students must meet with their counselor and receive prior approval before any other options are 
utilized to ensure that CCSD will be able to accept the course from other institutions. 
38. Do students need community service hours to graduate? 
No. However, competitive colleges and scholarships often consider community service hours during the 
application process.  The student and/or parent should keep track of their total community service hours per 
year.  A student also has the opportunity to receive a “letter” in community service.  Ms. Szpindor is the EHS 
Community Service contact. 
39. Are Career Pathways the same as college prep or different? 
Career Pathways are intended to provide a means of organizing and sequencing high school course offerings 
and selections. CTAE courses are a great way to provide students with a relevant course of study within a 
chosen career focus. Many of the Career pathways offered at EHS complement and enhance academic 
pathways.  
40. How do we make sure our child is on the college path? 
Course offerings at EHS are college and career preparatory.  Specifics about your child’s courses need to be 
discussed with their counselor.    
 
 
 
7
41. When do they pick their Career Pathway?  
Completing a Career Pathways is not a graduation requirement; all students who graduate from Etowah High 
School are on the same diploma track.  Career Pathways are designed for every student and can be changed if 
needed.  How does a counselor develop a relationship with a student? 
Counselors get to know their students by maintaining an open door policy and allowing students to schedule 
appointments as often and regularly as needed for their specific concerns. EHS counselors address the 
academic, social, and emotional needs of students. Students are encouraged to see their counselor during 
their lunch period. 
42. Do the counselors work with students on planning their courses and help them choose a college? 
Counselors regularly check to make sure students are on track for graduation.  Planning a student’s high 
school schedule is addressed during the Teachers as Advisor (TAA) time. This process requires the 
involvement of the TAA advisor, counselor, student, teachers and parents. 
GACollege411 is used to help a student select colleges that “fit” a student’s interests and needs. 
43. How do we verify that the correct social security number is on file with the school?

CCSD has adopted a program called Career Cruising as a resource for identifying appropriate/preferred 
careers for any student exploring possible career interest. Depending on the needs and/or the specific 
information sought (skills inventory, barriers to employment, transferrable skills, etc.), informal evaluations 
can be administered by the CTI coordinator or other qualified personnel. CCSD also partners with the 
Vocational Rehabilitation Program of the Georgia Department of Labor. Students with disabilities, that qualify 
for vocational support services, will be referred the second semester of their graduating year for a vocational 
evaluation that assesses job‐related abilities, develops a work plan, and ultimately leads to job placement.

End-of-Grade Assessments
Grades 3–8
End-of-Course Assessments
High School
Georgia
Milestones
What is the Georgia Milestones Assessment System?
The Georgia Milestones Assessment System (Georgia Milestones) is a comprehensive assessment system
spanning grades 3 through high school. Georgia Milestones measures how well students have learned the
knowledge and skills outlined in the state-adopted content standards in English Language Arts, Mathematics,
Science, and Social Studies. Students in grades 3 through 8 will take End-of-Grade (EOG) assessments in
each content area, while high school students will take End-of-Course (EOC) assessments for each of the ten
courses designated by the State Board of Education.
QuestionsandAnswersforParents
What is the purpose of Georgia Milestones?
Georgia Milestones is designed to provide information
about how well students are mastering the state-
adopted content standards in the core content areas
of English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and
Social Studies. Importantly, Georgia Milestones is
designed to provide students with critical information
about their own achievement and their readiness for
their next level of learning—be it the next grade, the
next course, or the next endeavor (college or career).
Where can I find more information
about Georgia Milestones?
Talk with your student’s teacher or school principal.
They can provide specific information about the
dates your student will be taking the assessments
this year. Resources to help your student prepare
for Georgia Milestones are available on the
Georgia Department of Education’s website at
http://testing.gadoe.org. To see what online testing
is like, you and your student may visit the Experience
Online Testing Georgia website at
http://gaexperienceonline.com. The items on the
demonstration tests are general and represent
multiple grade levels. They do not assess student
achievement.	
What types of questions will a student see
on the Georgia Milestones assessments?
Georgia Milestones includes the item types described below:
•• open-ended (constructed-response) items in
English Language Arts and Mathematics (all
grades and courses);
•• a writing component (in response to passages read
by students) at every grade level and course within
the English Language Arts assessments;
•• nationally norm-referenced items in all content
areas and courses to complement the Georgia
criterion-referenced information and to provide a
national comparison; and
•• multiple-choice items in all content areas and courses.
Georgia Milestones will be transitioned to online testing
over time. Online is considered the primary mode of
testing, with paper-and-pencil available as backup until
the transition is complete.
2015 –
2016
What can I do to help my student?
Students who are prepared, calm, and rested perform better on tests. Here are some of the many ways to
help your student approach Georgia Milestones in a relaxed, positive way:
•• Encourage your student to employ good study
and test-taking skills. These skills include
following directions carefully, avoiding careless
errors, and reviewing work.
•• Explain the purpose of the tests. The
assessments give students an opportunity to
show what they have learned in school. They
also give teachers information that helps them
plan instruction.
•• Point out that some items may be more difficult
than others.
•• Be certain your student gets plenty of sleep and
has a healthy breakfast and lunch. Taking tests
is hard work for many students and can require a
lot of energy.
•• Be certain your student is at school on time.
Rushing and worrying about being late could
affect performance on the tests.
•• Remember to ask your student about the testing
at the end of each day.

When do students take the assessments?
Students will take the assessments on days specified by their local
school system within designated state testing windows.
The End-of-Course (EOC) Main administrations will occur in
December and January in the winter months. The Spring Main
administration will occur from late April through early June, with
the Summer Main administration taking place in June and July.
In addition, Mid-Month administrations are available during
designated months of the year for students who require testing
at a time other than the Main administrations.
Students in grades 3 through 8 will participate in the End-of-Grade
(EOG) assessments from early April through early May.
What scores do students receive on Georgia Milestones?
The state-adopted content standards set specific academic
benchmarks and expectations for all students in Georgia’s public
schools. Georgia Milestones measures how well a student has
acquired the knowledge and skills outlined in the standards for his
or her grade level. Students are not compared to each other but are
measured instead on how well they are meeting the standards.
Student achievement in each content area is classified into four
performance levels. Student test results are provided to parents
and schools.
Georgia Milestones includes a limited sample of nationally
norm-referenced items to provide a signal of how Georgia
students are achieving relative to their peers nationally. Only
approved norm-referenced items aligned to Georgia standards
will contribute to a student’s criterion-referenced achievement
level, scale score, and grade conversion score.
In grades three, five, and eight, Georgia Milestones results inform
promotion/retention decisions in the areas of reading (grades 3,
5, and 8) and mathematics (grades 5 and 8). If needed, students
are afforded a retest opportunity in the summer. For high school
students, the EOC measures serve as their final exam with the
resulting score counting as 20 percent of their final course grade.
Performance on the English Language Arts portion of Georgia
Milestones is linked to the Lexile scale, a national reading
measure that matches students to appropriately challenging
reading materials. An abundance of books and articles are
assigned Lexile measures by publishers. All major standardized
tests can report student reading scores in Lexiles.
For more information about the Lexile scale, as well as
resources to help select literature for your student, visit
www.gadoe.org/lexile.aspx on the Georgia Department of
Education website.

Are students with disabilities or students who are
English Learners required to take Georgia Milestones?
State rules, federal requirements of the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act (ESEA), and the Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act (IDEA) mandate that all students participate in the
state assessment program. All students must be tested in all
Georgia Milestones content areas at their respective grade levels
or courses.
Specified accommodations are allowed on state assessments for
students who require them. Neither an Individualized Education
Program (IEP) team nor a parent can request that a student be
exempted from the assessment program. However, if an IEP team
determines regular state testing is inappropriate for a student, even
with accommodations, the student may participate in the Georgia
Alternate Assessment (GAA).
While Georgia Milestones’ primary mode of testing is online,
paper-and-pencil tests will be available for students who require
that mode of testing (e.g., Braille).
Students with limited English proficiency who enrolled in a U.S.
school for the first time may receive a one-year deferment from
assessment in EOG content areas other than Mathematics and
Science. Deferments are not permitted for EOC assessments.
