If you have not yet signed up for Parent Portal, please contact Judy or Dawn in the office to get the proper forms. Each family must have a portal account in order to register their student(s) for school each year. Thank You.
Art News
Thank you to all the parents that have purchased items through the website Artsonia. The school receives a percentage from the sale of an Artsonia item when parents or grandparents purchase their students artwork on a coffee mug, pillow, jewelery or apron--just to name a few of the items that Artsonia makes. If you haven't been receiving any emails from Artsonia and would like them please contact me, April.geist@K12.sd.us
I was able to purchase a speaker/headset with Artsonia funds. This allows the students to hear me better without me having to use a 'louder than usual voice'. I believe that the students are liking the classroom experience better. I know that I am.....my vocal cords are very grateful for the opportunity to buy this speaker.
Honoring Our Veterans
GBR honored Veterans by creating artwork for them and then sending those artworks to the 4H building to by on display on Veteran's Day.
American Education Week
November 16 - November 20 was proclaimed and observed as National American Education Week. Each school celebrated the week with designated dress up days. Mr. Gubbrud and one of our student council members, Garrett Dumas, met with Mayor Bob Everson at City Hall on November 17th for the Proclamation.
