GEMS

Greetings Gryphons, this is Hadley Bachman, Dean of Middle Grades, with a few announcements for the remainder of the week.  We are in our last week of the trimester, and our first expedition is coming to a close, and students are celebrating their learning. On Thursday, Kindergarten and 1st grade Celebration of Learning is at 5:00, and 3rd, 4th, and 7th grade Celebration of Learning is at 6:00. 2nd grade changed their Celebration of Learning from Thursday, November 15 to Thursday, November 29th at 5:00 PM. On Friday, K-4 is holding Breakfast with Books from 9:00-9:30, and the 8th grade Celebration of Learning is from 9-11AM.

Need any help with the upcoming holiday? Thanksgiving food baskets are to help ensure every family in our community can celebrate the bounty of the holiday. Please fill out the form that was sent home last week and let us know if you would like a basket for your family or if you would like to donate or volunteer. The baskets will be prepared on Friday, November 16th and will be available for pick-up from 3:30pm – 6:00pm on the same day.

Now for some upcoming events: From November 19th-23rd, we have no school for Thanksgiving Break. Monday, November 19th is student-led conferences for K-4; please sign up for a time with your child's teacher if you haven't done so already. Grades 5-8, mark your calendars for 6th grade celebration of learning on November 27 at 6 PM, 5th grade celebration of learning on November 28 at 6 PM, and student-led conferences on December 5th and 6th. Have a great week!
