Gladiator News
November 14-November 18, 2022
Dear Gladiator Families,
We just finished a busy week of fine arts performances at the Spurs game, ifly field trip for students, an informational Angst showing, and a very inspiring Veteran's Day celebration! We also had an outstanding showing for our Day Of Service! We had about 40 people out there! What a feeling it is to serve with our community! Thank you to everyone who helped organize all our events last week.
Our final week before the break will be a little more quiet. We have our first two basketball games of the season on wed and Thursday in the gym, our Annual Thanksgiving Teacher luncheon on Thursday and our finale will be our Dodge ball Tournament on Friday! The Dodge ball event will be live streamed into classrooms that day as we have limited space!
PTA could still use your help! Each year they provide a wonderful luncheon for teachers. They could use some donations to help. If you would like to donate to the teacher luncheon please click here:

Classrooms will be busy all week, so make sure your student continues to attend school each day. We don't want them to miss anything!
Our PTA fundraiser will begin this week with a lot of energy! Our annual PTA fundraiser is a direct benefit to our students and our classrooms. Our PTA uses the money to give to teachers!
They receive anything from furniture for their classrooms, to materials to use with students, to things for students in the school buildings. You will hear a great deal about it and we hope you all participate. It will culminate on Gladiator Games day with the Color Battle on the football field!
