Gibraltar Elementary Newsletter
February 2019
News from the Principal's Desk
Wow! What a crazy week this was! I can't believe how many snow and cold days we had. Hopefully, we are back to school for an extended amount of time and spring will be here soon. Enjoy the warm up this weekend before the cold sets in again!
Progress reports will be sent home on Friday, Feb 1 in backpack mail for all students in K-5. 6th-grade progress reports were sent out in the mail earlier this week. I hope you will have a chance to view them and take the opportunity to talk with your child about the importance of these documents.
If you have any questions or concerns about grading, please contact your child’s teacher first. If you still have questions or concerns, please then contact me.
We have a lot going on in February. Please see the calendar below for more information, but here are a few highlights!
- Little Vikings Performances at the Girls and Boys HS Basketball Games
- Destination Imagination Teams continue to practice getting ready for District competition in March!
- Author Lisa Wheeler will be visiting our school.
Our normal January Recognition Assembly was delayed by one week due to our snow and cold days. Look for pictures in our March Newsletter!
If you have any questions or concerns, please stop by or call the Gibraltar Elementary office at 920-868-3284.
