    What is EIP?

    EIP stands for Early Intervention Program.

         “The Early Intervention Program is designed to serve students who are at risk of not reaching or maintaining academic grade level.”  

         “The purpose of the EIP program is to provide additional resources to help students who are performing below grade level to obtain the necessary academic skills in order to reach grade level performance in the shortest time possible.”

    Forsyth County School System

    My name is Kristin Trombino and I am happy to be a part of the EIP team.  I have been teaching for twenty-five years.  I began my teaching career in Rhode Island before moving to Georgia. I am from St. Louis, Missouri and have lived in Georgia for the past twenty years.  I attended Auburn University where I met my husband.  We moved to Forsyth county so our daughter could attend Vickery Creek Elementary.  She is now carrying on the family tradition and is starting her sophomore year at Auburn!   As a family we love traveling, cooking, and spending time on the lake. I am looking forward to another great year at Vickery Creek!
