Middle School Information Night - Wednesday (2/8) @ 5:30 PM
(For Gr 6 families) In a few months, your child will be completing 6th grade. Over the next few weeks, you will decide where you’d like your child to attend middle school. This is an important decision. While you may involve your child in the discussion, the final decision is ultimately that of the parent/guardian.
Your choices include continuing at Global Learning Charter School (GLC) or enrolling in your middle school of residence. There are advantages to both programs. Your choice should reflect your child’s strengths, areas of need, and other long-term considerations.
You should have received a letter indicating your child's middle school of residence. If you are not sure which is your middle school of residence, please call our office.
To learn more about your options, we invite families to attend our GLC Middle School Information Night on Wednesday (2/8) at 5:30 PM. We will meet in Rm 50 and information will be provided in both English and Spanish.
