This Week's Updates - 10/4/24
Dear GES Families,
As we wrap up another successful week at school, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for your continued support and partnership. It’s inspiring to see our students grow and thrive in such a positive environment!
With the weekend upon us, I encourage you to take some time to relax, enjoy family activities, and create lasting memories together. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a game night, or simply catching up over a good book, make the most of this time.
Thank you for being an integral part of our school community. I look forward to seeing everyone back on Monday, refreshed and ready for another great week!
Warm wishes for a fantastic weekend!
PTO Spirit Weeks starts next week and it's a fun week of dress up themes. Click here to view the details on the District Calendar.

Showing Up Matters
Do you have trouble getting your kid to school on time? Are you unsure when to keep your kid home or when to send them to school? We can help.
Missing just two days a month is enough to make it very hard for your child to keep up with school and make friends. Let us help!
Please reach out to your child's teacher or guidance counselor (contact info at the end) for help in getting your kid to school each day and on time.
A new, inexpensive alarm watch might do wonders or an evening checklist that your kiddo looks at the night before could be useful.
If you're not sure about an illness, our nurse is the person to contact (contact info at the end).
