Wynbrooke Elementary

Dekalb County Schools

Update: December 10

Good Evening Wynbrooke Parents

Thank you for your patience and for responding so quickly to the school district’s decision to close school early on Friday due to inclement weather. Thanks to all parents who were onsite to assist with dismissal. 

We are EXTREMELY concerned about traffic and more importantly the actions of those who drive on our campus daily. We have many parents who travel with excessive speed and who totally disregard the staff and parents who are positioned daily to assist with morning arrival and afternoon dismissal. If this risky, unsafe behavior continues, it is just a matter of time before someone is seriously injured on our campus. We have more than 800 students that we must keep safe. Please SLOW DOWN, PAY ATTENTION, and be PROTECTIVE of ALL students!

As a DCSD Theme School, uniforms are REQUIRED not OPTIONAL. Please take time to review the uniform policy that can be found on the website and in your child’s agenda planner. Remember, students must wear solid black or brown shoes, a black or brown belt, and a navy blue coat, jacket or sweater. Please honor the traditions of theme schools and the commitment you made to have your child attend a Theme School by abiding by the required uniform policy.

Last week, we held our last Target Time Tutorial for the semester. We look forward to resuming with this safety net in January.

Our December calendar will be updated on the website this week. Below are a few important dates we ask that you add to your calendar:

Due to inclement weather, the PTA Santa’s Workshop will remain open until Tuesday, December 12th.

PreK-1 students will perform “Holidance Around the World” on Tuesday, December 12th at 6:30 pm. Participating students must report to the gymnasium at 6:00 pm dressed for their performance. At the end of the program, students will be picked up from the gymnasium. 

Please plan ahead as there will be a large crowd of family and friends who will be in attendance. 

Parking will be available in the back parking lot, the Bus Loading zone and on Wynbrooke Parkway. If you choose to park on Wynbrooke Parkway, you can only park on one side of the road towards Rockbridge Road. Please be courteous and DO NOT block mailboxes or driveways of residences. DO NOT park in fire lanes or at the Wynbrooke Subdivision Club House.

New Date for PTA Holiday Dance-Friday, December 15th 3:00 pm-5:00 pm. K-2 will be in the cafeteria and 3-5 in the gymnasium. Please arrive on time to pick up your child.

We are looking forward to a productive week with our students!
