Fall GT Evaluations Pick Up Information
Therefore, we will have the evaluations at the front office on Wednesday, January 9-Friday, January 11 from 8AM-4PM for any GT parent to sign them out from the front office. The office is at its busiest at arrival, lunch and dismissal so you might have to wait if you come during that time. Ideal hours for pick up are 9-11AM and 1-3PM in the front office. If you cannot make it any of those days, please email Amanda Hunt (ahunt@nbisd.org) or your child's GT teacher and we will hold on to them until you can come up in person to pick them up. One copy of all evaluations will go in your child's cumulative folder and the other will go home when you check them out. They do not need to be signed and returned. The evaluations are yours to keep from all CORE teachers and the GT advisory teacher your child has. We will do this process again in May for the spring GT evaluations. Thank you for your help keeping your child's information confidential. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Important upcoming dates for 8th grade:
December 8 & 15, 8:30-1:30pm: Farmer's Market selling days. Teams only need to attend one of the days, not both. Students should already have their dates picked for when they are selling at the Farmer's Market. Just a reminder that we like to have all members present, if we can.
**As always we would love to have ALL team members present for every event. However, if you cannot attend a date listed above, parents need to email Ms. Bryant or Ms. Cowan to let them know their child won't be in attendance. Thank you for your help with this!
