Ever wish parenting came with instructions and a manual?!? =)  THIS WEBSITE for some ideas on everything from grades, to help your student write essays, to social issues and more.  It could be the next best thing to written instructions!!


Have you heard?  GVMS is building a school garden!  It is taking shape in the back of our campus and we could use YOUR help!  Have a green thumb?  Know your way around gardening tools and plants?  Please email Mrs. McKenna HERE to get involved!  We are also trying to win a grant to help fund this project!  Please click this link to enter!!


Have you seen these #sparkle acts at home and around our campus?  Have you had a #sparkle moment yourself?  SPREAD THE #SPARKLE, especially when it comes to our kids!  There are #sparkle moments EVERYWHERE! 
You just have to look! =)

Don't forget that next week is Spirit Week!

Monday- Disney Day
Tuesday- "Fandom Day"
Wednesday- Ugly Holiday Sweater Day (there's a contest!)
Thursday- PJ Day

All students have been reminded, repeatedly, to continue to follow dress code regardless of the spirit days.  This includes NOT bringing blankets, slides, or inappropriate clothing to school

Official report cards will be mailed home after December 16th, so PLEASE check Parent Portal daily!  Today was the last day (unless otherwise communicated by a teacher with your student) to turn in late 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!  


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!!



Many of our teachers are getting even more creative and working to bring state of the art technology and hands on learning for our students!  Check out what they are doing AND see if you can support!  It's a great time to be a Viking!
