Dear GLOBE community,
As the school year comes to a close, I would like to acknowledge how proud I am of our students and their many accomplishments throughout the year.
This evening we celebrated the graduation of our 8th grade students. I look forward to hearing about the wonderful things they go on to accomplish in the future. A recording of tonight's ceremony will be uploaded to the school's YouTube channel in the coming week, and a photo gallery made available to 8th grade families.
While you're out this summer, look out for key communications regarding the move to our new campus for grades K through 4, as well as periodic GLOBE emails with details about orientation, Board of Directors meetings, and other information you'll need as we prepare for the next school year.
I'll look forward to welcoming your students back for Orientation Day on Monday, August 4, and then the first day of school on Wednesday, August 6.
Wishing you all a happy and safe summer!
Sincerely,
Christi Elliott-Earby
Executive Director
