BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE—THE GREATEST SHOW IN THE HISTORY OF EVER
The Indianapolis Colts are teaming up with American Dairy Association Indiana Inc., hhgregg, and Finish Line to offer this school show with Blue. Blue and his emcee will be joined via satellite calls from Indianapolis Colts cheerleaders, players and Coach Pagano. Each representative will express the importance of having a healthy and balanced diet, being physically active 60 minutes a day, not bullying and working hard in the classroom. Exciting guests, games and audience participation will make this program fun and exciting.

Feedback for GCSC---Your Input is Valuable to Help GCSC GROW!
During Parent Teacher Conferences your child's teacher distributed a copy of the feedback form below. If you didn't receive one, or if you misplaced your form you may click on the link below to get one. As we are always looking for ways to improve, your feedback is helpful. Please take a few minutes to complete the feedback form and return it to school.
Respectfully,

Volunteer in the Classroom or Field Trip--Need Background Check On File--Good for One Year
At TZ we appreciate parents/guardians that would like to volunteer to assist in the classrooms and/or go on field trips. As a part of any volunteer activity, we must have a cleared background check on file for each person wanting to assist here at school or accompany a class on a field trip.
I wanted to take time to clarify the limited/volunteer background checks. These background checks are free to our volunteers. A limited/volunteer background check is only good for one calendar year. If a volunteer wishes to continue volunteering after one year, they must submit a new application.
A link to the form that needs to be completed and turned in to the TZ office is below. You may also come by the school to complete the form. We do need to have a copy of your driver’s license to process the request.
Again, we appreciate your willingness to volunteer.
Mr. Strube
