Congratulations to our Grizzlies who have demonstrated our core values this week! Way to goooo! #Grizzly P.R.I.D.E.

Students in Ms. Felt's Kinder class were all smiles as they completed a numeracy skill! Students were challenged to find any number in the classroom, take a picture, trace the number, and demonstrate what they had learned using discourse.

We truly appreciate our school community dropping in to learn some essential standards with our scholars! Our community partners brough tons of fun to GFE this week. Our PTO was on deck ALL WEEK to assist with our Book Fair, Candy, Games, and Learning Events.

Thank you for getting our scholars to school before the Tardy Bell (8:10 AM).

If parents arrive after 8:10 AM, please park and walk students to front office to sign-in on the computer near the bright pink sign-in sheet. Parents, please ensure you have a visitor’s badge before entering the main hallways of the campus building. All parents must show their State ID (e.g., Drivers’ License) when entering a building.

• Parent Game Night: See Flyer below

Vision and hearing screenings will take place Oct. 31- Nov. 4. Please make sure your child brings their glasses/hearing aids when they come to school for those days. Thank you!

Captain Molar presentation for Kinder will be held November 14 on campus. This program educates children on good oral hygiene and preventative care.

Students must be fever-free for 24 hours without the help of medications before returning to school. Using medications to lower a temperature does not make the student less contagious and can lead to illnesses being spread to other students.

Please contact Nurse Brown via email, cbrown15@kleinisd.net, if you have any questions for our GFE Clinic.

• Please place extra clothes in student's bags in case of accidents or spilled food for students in Grade K-2.
• The clinic needs a 2-weeks notice if you are bringing snacks for your child’s class. Please email Nurse Brown if you have any questions.
• Parents must drop all medications off in the clinic due to paperwork that is required.
