GWS SCHOOL SURVEY
All five Marshfield Elementary School Principals have worked with their School Councils to bring forward a survey. It is our hope that all parents and staff will participate. We hope to gain valuable insight through your feedback in this survey. This feedback will help inform each School Council as they work together to make decisions that maximize the social, emotional, and academic achievements for all elementary students in Marshfield.
Please click on your school link below. The survey is a total of ten questions. This should take no more than five to ten minutes to complete. The survey will be open and available from Friday, February 7, 2020 through Friday, February 14, 2020.
KIDS HEART CHALLENGE AT GWS
Our school is doing the Kids Heart Challenge program (formerly known as Jump Rope for Heart) during PE classes throughout the month of February! All students will be participating in this fun physical activity, making their own hearts healthier and happier.
If you choose to help support the lifesaving work the American Heart Association does, you can donate using the Kids Heart Challenge app or at www.heart.org/kidsheartchallenge. Students will bring home collection envelopes for oine donations. Checks should be made payable to the American Heart Association. Fundraising is an optional part of this program.
KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION
New this year, parents are asked to pre-register their child online. This information is needed for planning purposes, parents will still need to complete a registration packet and bring it to their child's school in March.
