Message from Principal Ricks
Dear Families of Global Leaders:
November 25 - 27, 2024
As we gather to celebrate Thanksgiving, we want to express our gratitude for the incredible support, partnership, and trust you place in us each day. We are truly thankful for our Global Leaders community and the opportunity to nurture and educate your children.
Improving Communication About Assignments During our recent Parent-Teacher Conference evening!
Many of you shared the importance of better communication around classroom assignments and missing work. We heard you!
To address this, I am meeting with grade teams to develop a consistent, school-wide format that will make it easier for parents, students, and staff to stay informed. Please stay tuned—our plan will be rolled out in the next few weeks.
In the meantime, we encourage all families to join your child’s Google Classroom. This is the best way to track assignments, upcoming due dates, and important class announcements. If you need assistance with access, please reach out to the main office.
We thank you for your continued support as we work together to ensure every student’s success.
Wishing you a warm and joyful Thanksgiving!
Thank you for your partnership!
Ms. Keri Ricks
Principal, Global Leaders
