SBRC survey
Standards-Based Report Card Parent Survey: Elementary principals, please link the attached surveys into your newsletters and/or ask your teachers to add them to their newsletters. We are trying to get a snapshot of parent feedback prior to beginning any revisions for next year.
English - Elementary Report Card Feedback
Using SBRCs have allowed many of the innovative approaches we have tried at Glenhope such as moving students flexibly between grades for math and reading. We wouldn't be able to do that without the use of SBRC.
Tuition PreK
In the 2018-2019 school year, GCISD will offer a tuition-based pre-k program at Bransford Elementary, Colleyville Elementary, O.C. Taylor Elementary, Grapevine Elementary, Heritage Elementary and Bear Creek Elementary. There will be limited availability at Timberline and Silver Lake Elementary for a blended program that includes English and Spanish (an option if you are considering Dual Language in Kindergarten).

Staff appreciation
During the week of April 16th – 20th, students and families will show their appreciation to their children’s teachers as well as the Glenhope Staff who work behind the scenes and contribute greatly to making our children’s school days successful, safe, and fun.
For the classrooms, the hope is to show our Glenhope Staff our appreciation by showering them with little tokens of gratitude! Be creative!
