Veteran Guest Speakers: Nov. 11th
To mark this special day, we are hosting "Veteran Class Speakers". Any veteran, or someone currently serving in the military, is invited to speak to a class. The time of the presentation will be determined by the teacher and speaker.
A 20-minute presentation would include:
- A description of your military job/responsibilities
- A favorite memory from your service
- Questions from the students
We have 10 speakers scheduled. Ideally, we need 20 veterans. NOTE: While we will make every effort to match you with your child's (grandchild's) class, you may be speaking to a different class. Email Jennifer Costello at jcostello@cbsd.org, if you are interested before November 4th.
To all of our veterans - thank you for your service!

A Message from Our Counselor
Dear Gayman Families,
I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how wonderful it has been to visit classrooms and introduce myself to the students! I have been scheduling classroom visits and introducing myself as the new student support counselor and explaining my role as well as reading one of my favorite books growing up, The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything by Linda Williams. I can tell from just these short visits how kind, hardworking, and inviting our Gayman students and teachers are!
I look forward to building relationships with students through individual meetings, in small groups, and through classroom lessons in order to help them grow academically, socially, and emotionally here at Gayman. It is my hope that as I get to know each of you and our students, I will become an important part of the team that helps students succeed.
I look forward to working with you this year!
Please do not hesitate to contact me by email bhendrickson@cbsd.org or phone 267-893-4350 ext. 4353.
Sincerely,
Miss Bryanna Hendrickson
We are Thankful!
This year we will once again extend the spirit of giving to the Thanksgiving Holiday. As a school community, we would like to offer support to Gayman families in need by means of food baskets. Each classroom will be collecting items to prepare a Thanksgiving dinner for a family in need. We are suggesting that each child bring in a food item from the list below. Contributions will be collected in the classrooms beginning Wednesday, November 2nd through Thursday, November 17th.
If you would like to make a monetary contribution, we will use the funds to purchase grocery store gift cards for families. Please send your donation (cash or check made payable to “Gayman Elementary School”) to the school office in an envelope marked “Thanksgiving Fund.”
We appreciate your voluntary participation in this worthwhile project. We truly believe that in giving we also receive, and helping others immeasurably enriches our children’s lives.
