PLEASE take advantage of this and help support our classrooms!!!

THAT'S NOT ALL!!  The teachers that donors support will ALSO be entered in a separate drawing to receive one of fifty DonorChoose.org gift cards!!

Help us get our projects funded through #GivingTuesday and you get a chance to win too!

We must need a reminder on some of the rules we have at school, so here it goes!  
*Please remind students that "slides" or shoes with no backing, PJ bottoms as daily pants and skimpy clothing are not allowed at school
*Please remind students as they leave each day to remember their ID.  It is required at ALL middle and high schools in FSUSD!
*Please remind student that gum is not allowed on campus as it ends up in the wrong place!

Official report cards will be mailed home after December 16th, so PLEASE check Parent Portal daily!  We will be emailing again NEXT WEEK, after Thanksgiving Break (Nov 21-25) so students can find their work!!

We will have a rally schedule when we return from Winter Break to recognize grades and attendance.  Please note that awards are as follows:
3.0-3.4 Honorable Mention
3.5-3.9 Honor Roll
4.0 Principal's Honor Roll

Please bookmark THIS LINK and enter your student's unique code.  Please let us know if you need another copy of the instructions to log in.  

PLEASE check this DAILY and work with your student to ensure that they turn in all of their work.  Teachers emails and websites (if applicable) can all be found on Parent Portal or our website at www.fsusd.org/greenvalley so please check it out!  


We know that we shared this Itunes App at Back to School night, so here it is again!  This app DIRECTLY links to our Aeries/Parent Portal system so please check it out if you have an iPhone or Apple product so that you and your student can stay up to date on grades, attendance, and upcoming assignments!


While Hour of Code is coming December 5-11, MANY of our classes are already coding on a daily, if not weekly, basis!  This is a fantastic opportunity for students to learn programming skills and more!  Sign your student up HERE and check out all of the different options for students!!


Heart & Sole wants to come to GVMS!  This is a 10-week after school program with a small team size of 8-15 girls so that girls have an opportunity to build strong connections with one another and their coaches.  It teaches life skills such as team-building, goal setting, problem solving, creating a support system and more.

We want GVMS to become a site for the Hearth & Sole program!  We NEED YOU to become a coach, leader, and part of the program!  Are you interested?  Please contact Mrs. Cherry if you are interested!!
