Art is supposed to be edgy and thought provoking. I’m so proud of these kids for standing up for themselves when adults failed them. I am glad the administration changed course.

CLUBS, ANYONE?
Looking for a way to add community, creativity, and FUN to your homeschool year—without making a huge commitment?

Hazelwood Prep is opening our doors to homeschoolers who want to join our clubs! This is for Middle School and older. This is a very low point of entry into our community and a great way to meet new friends, explore new interests, and see what Hazelwood is all about.

THEATRE TECH / COSPLAY CLUB
Love costumes? Sets? Props? Creating things with your hands? Join us as we build sets and costumes—some for our productions, and some simply because we think it would be fun to create something amazing!

GAMING CLUB
Mostly Dungeons & Dragons, with board games and other tabletop adventures mixed in. Come for the strategy, storytelling, creativity, and camaraderie!

INTERACT SERVICE CLUB
Sponsored by the Rotary Club of Lawrenceville, Interact gives students opportunities to serve their community, develop leadership skills, and participate in meaningful service projects.

ODYSSEY OF THE MIND
For creative problem-solvers! Students work together to tackle challenges using imagination, teamwork, engineering, creativity, and performance—and yes, there is competition!

THE COST?
Just $100 for Hazelwood Prep membership to join our club community.
Odyssey of the Mind participants: $150 club fee, plus competition registration and travel expenses. The $150 helps cover team-related expenses, including registration, uniforms/outfits, and pins.

You don't have to enroll in our full program to be part of the fun. If you've been looking for a homeschool community where your student can create, play, serve, compete, and belong, come check us out!

PSAT Access Is Improving for Gwinnett Homeschoolers

For the past several years, homeschool students in Gwinnett County have had difficulty accessing the PSAT/NMSQT. Unlike the SAT, the PSAT is generally administered through schools rather than at public weekend testing centers.

This year, families have a clearer path.

Georgia Senate Bill 63 requires public school systems to make several college and career readiness exams available to eligible home study students living within their districts. Gwinnett County Public Schools has now established a process for local homeschool students to take the PSAT/NMSQT.

2026 PSAT Information

Test date:** Monday, October 26, 2026, at 8:30 a.m.
Registration deadline:** Wednesday, September 30, at 5:00 p.m.
Fee: $11
Payment deadline:** Friday, October 2, at 5:00 p.m.
Location:GCPS will notify registered families by email.

The PSAT is useful practice for younger students, but it is particularly important for 11th graders because the junior-year PSAT/NMSQT is the qualifying exam for the National Merit Scholarship Program.

What Families Should Do Now

Families must live within GCPS boundaries and have an approved Home Study Declaration of Intent on file with the Georgia Department of Education.

To prepare:

1. Download a copy of your current Declaration of Intent.
2. Monitor the [GCPS Senate Bill 63 page](https://www.gcpsk12.org/about-us/divisions-and-teams/school-improvement-and-operations/student-services/health-and-social-services/home-school-information/senate-bill-63-and-home-study-students). As of August 13, the registration link is still listed as “coming soon.”
3. Register as soon as the application becomes available.
4. Watch your email for confirmation, payment instructions, and the testing location.
5. If your student needs accommodations, begin the [College Board approval process](https://accommodations.collegeboard.org/) immediately.

This new process gives Gwinnett homeschoolers something families have needed for years: a clear, local route to the PSAT. Gather your documents now so you are ready when registration opens.

The interact club of Hazelwood Gwinnett is one of the clubs offered at Hazelwood Prep in Lawrenceville.

Join us for tomorrow's Sudanese Event and support the Sudanese Community and the Interact Club which is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Lawrenceville.

The event is at the LAC- Lawrenceville Arts Center tomorrow, August 7 from 6-8 pm.
