Book Fair is this week! Please read the following:
Our Scholastic Book Fair is quickly approaching! This year’s fair will be held the week of March 10 - 14 with special event shopping on March 12 from 5 - 6:30 pm. This event not only provides high-quality reading materials for families to purchase but also serves as a valuable fundraising opportunity for our school. While both the company and our school do our best to vet the books and materials, we recognize that each family has different standards for what is appropriate. To accommodate these varying needs, we are offering three options for participation. Families can take advantage of one or any combination of the three options:
Option 1
In-School Shopping: Students can shop with their class at a scheduled time during the school day and independently select books to purchase. Assigned class times occur during their library class the week of the book fair. Parents are also welcome to join their child at the scheduled shopping time to assist with the selection. If you prefer your child NOT shop independently during the school day, please complete the following Google form:

Option 2
Event Shopping: The book fair will be open March 12 from 5 - 6:30 pm, allowing parents to shop with their child and help select books to purchase.
Option 3
Online Shopping: Families can shop from home via our online book fair beginning March 7, enabling parents and students to select books together with this link:

We look forward to seeing you at the book fair and appreciate your support in fostering a love of reading within our school community.
Hello GLE Families,
I hope you are doing well and enjoying the warmer temperatures. This week I visited all K-2nd grade classrooms for guidance. Our topic this week was choices and the consequences of our choices. Please talk to your child/children about what they are learning.
Mentors Needed:
Here at Grant Line we are fortunate to have a mentor program called Mentor Mii. We are in need of mentors to mentor students who just need extra support and encouragement. Mentors meet with students once a week for 30 minutes during the school day. We are flexible and will work with you and your schedule. They say it takes a village to raise a child. Will you consider being a part of that village? Please call me at 812-542-5707 if you or someone you know is interested.
Thank You:
Thank you to the volunteers who help pack blessings in a backpack. I also want to thank the Kindergarten team for helping pack last week when many of our volunteers were unable. If you or someone you know is interested in volunteering to help pack blessings, feel free to give me a call.
Have a great weekend,
Lisa McCory, Counselor
