GES Family Update

Mr. Harris' Thoughts
GES Families,
Wow! There is so much information to communicate this time of year! I am doing my best to send home what is most important without overwhelming you each day.
Overall, we are off to a nice start and thank you for all of your cooperation with everything here at GES!
Thank you!

Schoolwide Class Dojo
So, for schoolwide communication, we are using Class Dojo. I am still learning how to use this resource from a whole school perspective. My intent is to use Class Dojo for everyday things and regular communication and then use Skylert for more global district communication or to communicate things that may be unexpected here at school. An example of this may be if I need to communicate a medical emergency that happened here at school. Please register at the link below to ensure you are enrolled in the GES list for Class Dojo
Arrival and Dismissal Update
We will use the cones for arrival and dismissal for one more week as reminders. Thank you very much for making this process as smooth as possible.
Arrival and Dismissal Update - pt 2.
Greetings GES/GMS Families,
Please remember that the GMS pick up/drop off lane is not intended as a cut-through for GES student drop off. We ask that you do not park in the GMS staff lot and walk across the traffic lane to GES to walk your student to or from school drop off/pick up. If you are picking up a GES student please use the GES dismissal protocol to do so.
The GMS visitor parking lane is not for drop off or pick up use for students. This is intended only for individuals that are coming into the GMS school office during the school day.
If you have both a GMS student and a GES student please make your way through the intended lane at GMS and once your vehcile is able to make its first stop nearest Door 1 at GMS, pull as far up as you can, then ask your students to exit the vehicle and walk to their respective schools from that point. Do not stop near the GES doors to drop off your student holding up traffic when there is space to pull up further. We understand that it can be convenient but it is not safe and it creates extra back up on Fawn Ridge Drive and Hwy 76.
The town of Greenville has asked that you do not park on Fawn Ridge Drive or the neighboring streets and cul de sac to pick up your children, please use the designated lane. We work hard to keep the traffic moving quickly and safely. If you prefer not to wait in the traffic line, plan on arriving closer to 3:10pm and you will be able to pick up your student without the traffic concern. Students are welcome to wait outside or in the vestibule for you to pick up. We appreciate your immediate attention to this.
With regard,
