Supporting Student Readiness
Free Digital Resources

Georgia Virtual offers free digital learning modules available through Georgia Virtual via the GaDOE GAVL resources. These self-paced modules allow students to preview upcoming grade-level or course content, build confidence, and/or strengthen foundational skills from the previous grade or course before the new school year begins, making them a flexible, no-cost option for academic enrichment and transition support.

Click here to access this resource.

MEDICATION PICK UP

If your student has medication in the clinic, please come to the school to pick it up by noon on Wednesday, May 20.  If you do not pick up medication, the medication will be discarded. Please communicate in advance via phone or email if you will send a designee to pick up your student’s medication.

NEW BUS APP
PARENT PORTAL

The Here Comes the Bus App has phased out, and Cobb County is now using an improved communication tool called Edulog Parent Portal. The Parent Portal App is free and can be downloaded from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.

The Parent Portal App will:

• provide you with planned time and location information for your child’s bus ride to school
• show you real-time GPS location of the bus
• send you a push notification when it is nearing your bus stop
• send you a notification when there is a substitute bus/driver
• send you a notification when the bus is running late

For security, you will need to submit the following information to access your student’s transportation information:

1. school of attendance (Kincaid)
2. ID number
3. date of birth
4. the exact spelling of his or her first name and last name

For step-by-step directions to install the app, link to your student(s), and set notifications, click here for English OR click here for Spanish.  If you have additional questions regarding the app, please contact our transportation department at: 678-594-8000

Our latest contribution to Kincaid Elementary…..iPads in the Art Classroom!!!

Adding iPads to the Kincaid Visual Arts Program greatly supports the district’s CTLS Visual Arts platform with Cobb’s new Digital Portfolio Appendage. Cobb’s Digital Portfolio creates a space for students to compile, classify, and record their visual arts progress from elementary through high school.

At Kincaid, students are using the new iPads to:

• use apps like Procreate, Adobe Fresco, or Sketchbook and other graphic design programs
• learn animation, photo editing, and digital painting
• complete reflections and artist statements on finished pieces
• integrate the Arts with STEM and Music curriculum
• create cross-disciplinary projects, in areas such as: science (e.g., anatomy drawing), history (historical art recreations), or language arts (visual storytelling)
• apply 21st-century skills (creativity, problem-solving, communication, and technology use)
• access personalized learning and diverse tools for students with different needs

Kincaid Families,

Thank you again for supporting the Kincaid Foundation Cougar Run! You helped the Foundation raise $32,630 for Kincaid Elementary! The Kincaid Foundation allows our students to have supplemental resources above and beyond the high standards in Cobb County. Recently, students have access to iPads in the Art classroom and the STEAM Lab to extend their learning. Also, this Art/STEAM patio was just installed to extend the classroom outdoors. The FBI (Father’s Being Involved) will be assembling the tables and umbrellas at our upcoming Clean Up Day on Saturday, March 28. Please join us! More details below!

Our latest contribution to Kincaid Elementary…..iPads in the Art Classroom!!!

Adding iPads to the Kincaid Visual Arts Program greatly supports the district’s CTLS Visual Arts platform with Cobb’s new Digital Portfolio Appendage. Cobb’s Digital Portfolio creates a space for students to compile, classify, and record their visual arts progress from elementary through high school.

At Kincaid, students are using the new iPads to:

• use apps like Procreate, Adobe Fresco, or Sketchbook and other graphic design programs
• learn animation, photo editing, and digital painting
• complete reflections and artist statements on finished pieces
• integrate the Arts with STEM and Music curriculum
• create cross-disciplinary projects, in areas such as: science (e.g., anatomy drawing), history (historical art recreations), or language arts (visual storytelling)
• apply 21st-century skills (creativity, problem-solving, communication, and technology use)
• access personalized learning and diverse tools for students with different needs

Classrooms who have raised $1600+ will get a Pizza Party this Friday!  All students have earned a Bounce House at Field Day!  If we make it to $40,000, the Ms. Tennyson and Ms. Griffeth will camp out at the school…again!  Click here to see a video from last time they camped out!
