At Stripling Elementary School, we communicate with parents in way that is easy for them to understand. We explain educational terms and school information in common language. We communicate via email, Friday Folder, phone calls, and students’ agendas.

We provide information in English and Spanish in print format and on our school’s website. In addition, Stripling Elementary School has bilingual staff to support bilingual communication between parents and school personnel. Stripling Elementary also provides bilingual interpreters during parent-teacher conferences.

Parents may request a meeting with their child’s teacher, counselor, or administrator via phone call, email, or written request. Stripling Elementary School. 6155 Atlantic Blvd. Norcross, GA 30071 770-582-7577 | Fax 770-582-7586 http://www.striplingelementary.org

 

The Blueprint for the Future is the strategic plan for Gwinnett County Public Schools. This plan is organized into four strategic priorities, each with three specific goals. To ensure success, these goals have clear objectives and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to track and measure progress. Each year schools review their data to identify areas for growth and set long-term goals to improve them. This information is used to create a Local School Plan for Improvement (LSPI) aligned to the district's priorities. School staff, families, and community members participate in providing input for the LSPI. Families can easily access the latest strategic plan on the Gwinnett County Public Schools' website.
