A Day in the Life of a Longhorn is our annual Day Camp for rising 6th grade students who will be attending Lanier Middle School in the fall.

Students will be able to become familiar with the building, where their academic and connection classes are located, as well as meeting many of their teachers before the beginning of the school year. The camp runs from 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM. Parents can pay for the camp via My Payments Plus.

A student's parent/guardian is required to sign the Carnegie Unit Credit Decision Form at the end of the school year indicating either the credit for the course(s) taken will be for middle school credit or as a Carnegie Unit towards high school graduation; this year, the form will be completed electronically through the Parent Portal by following the videos and document below.
Students may not earn 1/2 Carnegie credit for courses. Courses that earn a high school Carnegie credit in middle school will not be used in the grade point average (GPA) calculation for high school, nor will be used in GPA calculations for the HOPE scholarship according to current Georgia Student Finance Commission rules for HOPE.
Both semester grades (not the yearly average) will be used to determine credit earned. If the student successfully passes both semesters, then a 'P' will be placed on the transcript and not a grade. A 'P' will equal 1.0 unit of Carnegie Credit earned.
If necessary, translated forms can be completed for each eligible class and may be submitted to the 8th Grade Office before the deadline that will be communicated at a later date.
