GO Team

All school systems in the State of Georgia were required to select a new district operating model. As a result, beginning July 1, 2016, Atlanta Public Schools became a Charter System, which means our district is working to create more freedom and flexibility for our schools to find new ways to boost student achievement. The best part — parents, educators and community members now share in the decision-making process by joining the school’s GO Team.

Virginia-Highland Elementary will build our GO Teams through the established election and appointment cycle; the first election will be held in the spring of the school’s first year of operation. Schools will have a full GO Team after the organizational GO Team meeting in their third year of operation.

Parents, Educators & Community members interested in serving on a GO Team will have opportunities to fill vacant seats throughout the year.  Check with the school or this website to find out when the next election will be held.
