GSPS will continue to offer Grab & Go Meals next week! These meals include a hot lunch and breakfast for the following day. Meals are FREE and available to any children 18 and under in the household. We recognize the added stress that our families are under as we begin distance learning. In offering these meals, our hope is to alleviate some of the burden by saving the time of preparing two meals each day. The link to order meals for next week is below.

Congratulations to Karly R on her Honorable Mention for the Music K8 cover contest!

For the 1/2nd grade music students music math worksheets, remember the whole note (circle note) is worth 4 beats. Everytime you add something you cut the value in half. So you add in the following order: stem, color in note-head, flag. (4, 2, 1, 1/2)

Elementary parents. There was a glitch with our AR program. It was causing the goals to be set as 3rd quarter and not 4th. The glitch is fixed and all goals are set correctly!! A little note to our students. We miss you tremendously!! Please be safe and stay healthy! Hopefully we will see you all soon! ❤️ The Elementary Teachers

To all my 5th and 6th grade students— I miss you all like crazy!!!! I hope you are all safe and healthy. I hope to see you all sooner than later. Be the best version of yourself every single day. Help your folks out and know there is someone out there missing you like crazy!!!!!! Your teacher- Mrs. Buckeye

Phase 1 of our Distance Learning Program involves distributing learning packets to each of our students. We have also cleaned out student lockers and desks to deep clean. Parents are asked to stop at the WEST DOOR of the school on Monday, March 23rd between 9:00 AM and 6:00 PM to pick up their family’s packets and belongings. Since the building is closed to the public, please ring the bell to let us know you are at the door and someone will meet you there with everything your students will need. If your child is borrowing a device from the school, you will be asked to sign a device release at that time.

Gackle Streeter FFA members, parents and alumni We will be postponing the banquet indefinitely. Once we have some idea of timelines we can revisit it. Also I will make up an officer application packet for those interested. Email me if you are interested and I will mail it

Note to all the HS Choir and Band students, yes we have postponed the music trip to KC. Right now we are planning on rescheduling for next April. I will be sending out additional info in a letter in regards to the insurance and other issues.

Any families that have not taken our survey, please do so immediately. This is so we can help distribute services like internet and devices to our students that need them. Thank you! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/5K6GGR5
