Gator Happenings this Week!
Lots of Learning!
This week was a fairly quiet one as far as events go. We just dug into the learning all week! Next week we've got a lot going on though - be sure to look below!
Our PTO did host a fundraiser at Chipotle on Tuesday that brought many of our families together!
3rd Grade students had a guest visitor to share with them about recycling - they learned a lot!
Our 1st Grade Spanish Immersion students have hit a huge milestone. They are now only speaking Spanish all day - no more English in those rooms!
Our Early Childhood programs also hosted a family event Thursday evening that had a great turnout. All of the families got to take home a container with math games to play together!
Hour of Code
We want our families to experience coding too! Families are invited to our Family Hour of Code on Monday, December 5th from 5:30-6:30. You can experience our robots and coding materials with your student!
Gage Family Night
We will start answering these together at our First Gage Family Academy meetings on Monday, December 19th (Time TBD). We will spend our time this month digging into the questions: "What does learning at high levels mean?" and "How do you define a 'higher level'?" We'd love to have your voice be part of the conversation!
You may see all of the priority questions and our initial answers HERE.
Gage Innovation Tours
We invite you to RSVP, but will welcome any guests that are able to attend next Friday!
