Reminders (Don't Forget)

Field Day: Volunteers Needed

Field Day at Gables ES is Tuesday, May 31. We will need family volunteers to assist with games and inflatables during the morning from 9am to 12pm. There is no signup before the day - just show up if you can and report to the gym to choose your game/activity.

If you cannot make the morning games, you are still invited to watch the afternoon games with your scholar. Afternoon games will begin at 2pm. Which teachers will be victorious in tug-of-war? Come find out! Look for flyers to be sent home next week.

Roll Call Role Models

Encourage your student to be a Roll Call Role Model by coming to school on time every day. Students who show improved attendance have a chance to win weekly prizes, including tickets to Columbus Clippers games and food coupons from White Castle and Donatos.
