STORY 4:Special Screening Of Documentary About 'Reading Rainbow' to be Held in February

The event is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Tuesday, February 6.

Break 3:  ESOG – INGLES 4 – JACKSON EMC



STORY 6:Ossoff-sponsored bill supporting military spouses becomes law

U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff's bipartisan Military Spouse Career Support Act of 2023 has become law. The bill aims to aid military spouses' careers by extending reimbursement for licensure and business costs to spouses of servicemembers transitioning to the reserve component. Current policies only provide reimbursements for relocations between active-duty assignments, not when moving between active and reserve assignments. The legislation intends to alleviate the financial burden military families, especially spouses, face during relocations. Ossoff's previous bipartisan effort, the Military Spouse Licensing Relief Act, was enacted last year to enhance job flexibility for military spouses by ensuring recognition of professional licenses across states.



STORY 7:Osborne Middle School's Steven Bragg Named Media Clerk of the Year

Steven Blagg of Osborne Middle School has been named the 2023-24 Media Clerk of the Year for Gwinnett County Public Schools. The award recognizes Blagg's exceptional contributions to the effective operations of the school library program. Blagg emphasizes connecting with students, fostering a love for learning and exploration. He reads young adult books to recommend titles and engage students in conversations. Besides daily responsibilities, Blagg creates book displays, updates the student web app, assists teachers, and collaborates with parent volunteers. His dedication to the media center has made it a favorite spot for students, fostering a sense of family at Osborne Middle School.





We’ll have final thoughts after this.
