GMS Families,Thank you to everyone for a great week of field trips, celebrating our monthly positive behavior with the Kickball tournament and Fine Arts Day, and ending on Party in the Park to celebrate Greenbrier Games points!!! We want to give a big shoutout to all of our PTO families who helped make the last few weeks core memories for our students!! As we embark on the last week of school, we have several important things happening on Monday. On Monday, students will get their semester test exemption letters in 1st period and they will have each teacher sign off on if they have to take semesters tests. If students are exempt from semester tests, they are exempt from Wed-Fri. Students will also be turning in their Yondr Pouches and cleaning our their lockers. We also cannot wait to celebrate our students who are getting HEART and Academic Awards during the assembly on Monday morning.
**If students are on the ICU list, they must be present to complete their missing work...even if they are exempt from semester tests.
🚙Morning Car Rider Reminder-- ALL car riders going through the MS line MUST turn right and NOT go straight through the parking lot loop. This is very important in ensuring safety and traffic patterns are followed.
THIS WEEK AT GMS:
- Monday: Awards Assembly, Semester Test Letters, and Yondr Pouch turn in
- Monday-Friday: Home Fast Focus
- Wednesday- ODD period semester tests
- Thursday- EVEN period semester tests
- Friday- makeup day
Other Reminders: Panther Refuel: Students that participate in panther refuel will be charged the same fee as they would for breakfast. If students decided to get breakfast then it will be $1.50 for refuel.
Students can only have a clear water bottle (no Stanley's or tumblers). All outside drinks must be thrown away before 1st period (coffees/energy drinks). We have several filtered water stations throughout the building and want everyone staying hydrated!!
Help us remind and reinforce student dress code with our students! The dress code requirements are pictured below. We will be reminded students of the policy and expectations throughout this week! If students are caught out of dress code, they will be asked to call home and get different clothes.
Use HAC (Home Access Center) to check your student's grades and attendance.
ICU will continue this week during lunches. This is a time where students come to the library with their lunch to get caught up on missing assignments. We have several teachers and administrators avaliable to help and support students during this time. Parents will recieve a text and email notification when/if their student gets placed on the ICU list. This is not a punishment but a way to communicate that your student has an essential assignment missing.
Students will need their chromebooks and chargers everyday! The library is also open before and after school for book checkouts! We want every student to have a book of their choice by the end of the week!
Parent notes for student absences are due within 5 days of the absence. After 5 days, we do accept notes.
