Field Trip Information
Lunches- On Friday, please send your child with a DISPOSABLE lunch sack and DISPOSABLE drink. Please do not send lunch boxes or water bottles that cannot be thrown away. If you are in need of a sack lunch from the cafeteria for the day, please let your child's teacher know TODAY.
Please coat your child in sunscreen before bringing them to school on Friday. Teachers are not allowed to put sunscreen on students.
If you are a chaperone, please meet at GES at 8:45 and check in with the front office. Afterward, you can caravan behind our bus to Green Meadows. Information regarding the field trip and your group members will be placed in your child's folder today.
If you are attending the field trip, but NOT as a chaperone, you can meet us in the back parking lot of GES at 8:45 to caravan OR in the Green Meadows parking lot at 9:30. If you are NOT a chaperone, you do NOT need to check in at the front office. If you meet us at Green Meadows, please do not enter without receiving instructions from your child’s teacher.
If there is inclement weather, a decision about going will be made by 7:30 that morning. We are looking forward to a great time!
The GES Carnival is this Saturday!!
Mark your calendars! The GES Carnival of the Stars is THIS Saturday, October 21st from 2-5pm! This is our school's largest fundraiser of the year! It's going to be a blast!
Carnival Volunteers Needed!
Parents, teens, grandparents! We are in great need of your help! Please click the link below and sign up to help run a carnival booth for just a 30 minute spot (or more!). Almost all booths will just need you to cross off stars from the kiddos' Star Cards. We need the help of every parent possible to make this a successful event! If all volunteer spots have been filled for your class's booth, please sign up at any other booth or volunteer opportunity! Thank you!
