Please join us tomorrow (12/3) for our Annual Holiday Market from 10 am to 1 pm. We will have over 30 vendors, food trucks, a Hot Cocoa fundraising bar and performances from our choir, percussion, and theater groups at 10:30, 11:15 and noon . And don't forget to snap a picture with Santa and Mrs. Claus in the cloud for a suggested donation of $5 (cash or card).

The library would LOVE some small, gently used toys to take apart in a breakerspace station! Think little wind ups, Happy Meal type toys, anything that is safe, plastic, and has screws/moving parts. Kids will be able to use safe tools to take these apart & see how they are constructed and work. We will then use the parts for future makerspace activities.

They do not need to be in working condition! Anything small and safe that is lying around that can be deconstructed will do. Please no electronics, metal, or anything with sharp edges. You can send them to the library with your student to place in a donation box now through 12/13.

Thank you!!

Mrs. Mitchell - Librarian

Walkers will be dismissed at 11:40.

Car Rider will start at 11:45.

Lunch will not be served!

“Hello everyone!!! Now that the weather is cooling off, the other PE coaches and I just wanted to remind everyone to please send your kiddos to school each day prepared to be outside for PE class (as well as recess). We won’t be outside if it’s raining or if the wind chill is below 40 degrees, but there will be days that your child would like to have a jacket, long pants, etc. in order to stay comfortable outside. Thanks for your support!!! ”

Spring Testing

2022-2023 Yearbook - We are so excited to announce that the 2022-2023 Yearbook will be in collaboration with our first ever Groves Elementary Yearbook Club. Students will help design, take pictures, and create layouts. You may order your yearbooks now at balfour.com (search Groves Elementary in 77346) for an early bird price of $30 (ends 2/1/23). We will have a summer delivery to be able to include all parties, spring events and 5th grade of year activities, but we will be selling inserts at the end of year for students to collect autographs, so you don't need to purchase an insert now. 5th grade only dedications available for purchase now, but the design isn't due until next Spring. Order now because we have a limited number of books that will sell out!!

Our fabulous art teacher, Ms. Kris (Yetter), needs some help transitioning in between grade periods in the mornings. Please sign up for a time slot (or more) to help her set up and clean up her room.

You MUST fill out the PTO / Volunteer Background check for Humble ISD for the new school year available here: https://www.humbleisd.net/volunteer
