G-A Families...
We appreciate your patience with the start of the 2020 school year. We understand that the hybrid model, in which students come to school in cohorts: Monday and Tuesday group or Thursday and Friday group, may create daycare challenges for you and your family. We want to let you know of a free opportunity—the G-A Enhancement Center for K-5 students. This will be based on a first come, first serve basis. We have a limited number of spots.

GA Families....
Packet pick up went really well the other week. We appreciate everyone that was able to pick up their distant learning packets. We loved seeing everyone. When you picked up your packet, or have now received one, you were given an enrollment packet. We now have a locked mailbox right out front of the primary. You may drop off your packets at any time. Just pull down the door and drop in your packet. Thank you so much.
Here is our final Learning Fair slide show. Please enjoy.
