Yesterday, the Chamber of Commerce hosted a ribbon-cutting at Fairmont Community Center for the new book vending machine. We are so thankful that so many people turned out to support this continued commitment to improving literacy in Griffin-Spalding! This was a great collaboration between the city, county, chamber, school system, Partners In Education and many other organizations.

Happy Thursday! Mark your calendars for an important upcoming event — Parent-Teacher Conference Night at Cowan Road Elementary on Thursday, November 13, 2025, from 4:00–6:00 PM.
This special evening is your chance to connect one-on-one with your child’s teacher to talk about grades, learning progress, and ways to support success at home. With the middle of the year approaching (and holiday breaks right around the corner!), it’s the perfect time to check in and celebrate your child’s growth.
We can’t wait to see our amazing families there! Please contact your child’s teacher via Dojo for more information on how to sign up!
