Gage Calendars
In an effort to keep everyone up to date on all of the amazing things happening here at Gage each week we are trying a new calendar option. It is a web-based tool that allows you to save one link that will be continuously updated as the year goes on. Within the calendar, viewers can change the way they see events, print a weekly agenda, easily share events on Twitter/Facebook, and save events from the calendar into their own Outlook Calendar.
You may save the link(s) that apply most to you to make checking out upcoming events easy!

Facilitating Family
We are so excited to continue building relationships with families this year!
As a first step, please let your child's teacher(s) know the best way to contact you and be sure to ask them the best way to contact them in return!
If you have a question about something and aren't sure who to ask, you're welcome to start with Mrs. Marquardt (contact information is below!) or call our Gage Office - we'll help get you the answers you're seeking!
