FROM MRS. HUBBARD, PRINCIPAL
Our library has been transformed into a magical place for children, thanks to the tireless effort of our librarian, Mrs. Hay. It is with a heavy heart that the Governor Winslow School Community says farewell to Mrs. Hay as she begins a new career that better meets the needs of her family.
On behalf of students, teachers, and families, thank you, Mrs. Hay. We love you and appreciate all you have done to help instill the love of reading in our learning environment. You are simply the best!

FROM THE PTO
JOG-A-THON
Thank you all so much for a great Jog-A-Thon. We were successful in our goals to raise funds for the school while giving the kids a fun time. They LOVED it! Thank you Mr. Jackson for all you did for this event! The PTO will leave the link open for donations until the end of the month, and if you haven’t already done so please return jog-a-thon envelopes!
Car magnets were a hit at Jog-A-Thon as well so stay tuned for more GWS gear! We do have some discounted sales on the PTO site for anyone interested. You can find inventory HERE.
School Store
Don’t forget the school store is open every Monday for grades 1-5!
PickUp Patrol (PUP)
GWS will continue to use the web based application called PickUp Patrol (PUP) to help us better manage our dismissal process. PUP allows parents to electronically make daily dismissal changes from a computer or smart phone. If you need a registration link, please email cmullen@mpsd.org.
