10 Days Down

10 Days down and 170 more to go. Everyone at GV and the ELC has been extremely busy getting organized and learning over the past few weeks. I am very impressed with the work that all of our students are doing. We have some exciting events coming up, please look for the monthly calendar that will be sent home at the end of every month.

GV parents, if you are dropping of your child in the AM, we have a designated drop off location on the side of the building. Please follow the cars around the building or ask a teacher if you are not sure. Please do not drop off y our child in the front of the building or in the back by the buses. This creates an unsafe situation. AM drop off times are from 8:50-9:10

Please keep the office updated on any change in residency or phone numbers. It is imperative that we have a correct and working number for all parents/guardians.

As we all know, education is the number one priority. Along a different line, having your child remain safe while here at school is also our number one priority. I am very concerned with the safety of your child as well as the safety of all children who ride the buses to and from school. It seems like a growing number of students have forgotten the proper rules while riding on the bus. I have had to go on many of the buses and remind the children of the proper bus rules. Please review the following rules with your child:

Stay Seated, Face forward, Speak in a soft voice, Keep your hands to yourself

With everyone’s cooperation, we can make sure that all students arrive at school and go home safely. If there isn’t any improvement, I will be forced to remove various students from riding the bus and the family will be required to provide transportation to and from school.
