iPads
Ipads that are taken home nightly need to be returned each school day fully charged. We use iPads daily and it is important they are ready for a full day of learning! Also, please return the signed iPad Device Agreement and fee as soon as possible if you have not already done so. If you are unsure how much you owe, please contact Mrs. Churchill in the front office. She will be happy to help you with this information.
Picture Orders
It's not too late to place your child's picture order. Orders will be accepted through tomorow. To pay online visit their website at schoolpixinc.com, click the Products and Services tab, then School Portraits or you may call them directly at 972-334-9140.
Background Check
If you plan to volunteer at school this year (room parent, Dove Dad's Club, Fall Festival, Field Day, field trips etc. ) and haven't gotten your background check done, now is the time! Just go to our district website at gcisd-k12.org, click on the Parents and Students tab, scroll down and click on Volunteer Background Check. Approval takes about 2 weeks once your form has been submitted. ALL VOLUNTEERS ARE REQUIRED TO REAPPLY EACH YEAR.
