A Memo from Mrs. Doss
We are preparing in the front office for next school year and have been collecting enrollment packets for the 2017-18 school year. If you have not turned in your information please stop by the office to pick up the forms we need to have your student officially enrolled for next year.
We have received back our Summer School 2017 invites. This summer was an invite only session. We will holding K-5 at GBE. Due to the construction that will be taking place at the front entrance and in our front office we will move our office area, and work out of the South side of the building. The door parents will use is the "Teacher Door". This will be the main entrance for all parents and students. Mrs. Slater, Mr. Samuel or myself will be there to greet guests. You will not be able to buzz in, and will need to knock. We will post signs to guide everyone during this time of construction. Our bus system and drop off/pick up for parents will run the same. We will just exit out the side doors and walk around the sidewalk to load onto the buses.
More info will be sent out to all parents who are sending students to Summer School 2017.
In the next few weeks to end with a bang we will have several opportunities to celebrate as a school family, and the accomplishments of our students. I will include these dates in the calendar list below.
Thank you for all you do as parents and partners in working to give your child the best school experience at GBE. Happy May everyone!!
Best Wishes and Enjoy our last few days!
