Every day at GVMS, we mention being nice/saying kind words/being polite/doing the right thing DAILY to remind our Vikings that we are all here together! Sometimes, that can be much more difficult than anticipated.
We strive to teach our students to do the right thing, even when no one is looking, and we need the help from home too =)
We have been able to use the resources from THIS LINK to help us and wanted to share them with you all as well!
We know you are well aware of our upcoming SBAC/ CAASPP/CAST testing in Math, English, and Science (for 8th only) that is coming up in April. We will be on block schedule and we will be sending the schedule home with students via email. In the meantime, we are getting our Vikings ready for this assessment!
How can you help at home? Check out THIS WEBSITE and the video above for more information and how you can support your Viking at home!
We are already planning for and fielding phone calls for 8th grade promotion! Please mark your calendars for Thursday, June 6 beginning at 10 am! Here are a few things to note:
- All 8th graders get 4 tickets ONLY
- Tickets are available AFTER Memorial Day weekend and will be signed over to the students directly! Lost tickets cannot be replaced!
- Rain or shine, we will be outside in the amphitheater
- We ask that all signs, balloons, or anything else blocking the view of other families be left outside or we will hold it in our front office
- If you want to bring your own chair, please do so
- Gates for families promotion will open 9:30 AM
- Any sibling that attends GVMS and wants to attend promotion, MUST be signed out by an adult on their emergency card and must also have a ticket!
- All 8th graders are dismissed immediately after promotion ends
More information will come out as we get closer to the date of promotion!
We have had several parents ask for additional resources, outside of GVMS, to support parenting their students. We are glad you asked! There are many resources on the Sullivan Inter agency Youth Services Center that can be used, including Parent Project from the FFPD! Take a look and get signed up!
GVMS will be hosting Heart and Sole this Spring for all girls in 6th-8th grade! Spring Session will begin THIS WEEK and end May 17th. Girls meet twice a week for 75 minutes after school and finish the session with a 5K run at Solano Community College on May 11th with over 600 other girls, their families and community organizations!

Every day, over our loud speakers, we make lots of announcements to our students. These include: events coming up, clubs to join, sports activities, grading windows, and more. PLEASE make sure that you all, at home, bookmark this page HERE so that YOU don't miss out on what's happening at GVMS! We have a LOT of exciting activities coming up that you won't want your student (or YOU!) to miss out on!
Additionally, we review our school rules. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. Including keeping our hands to ourselves and no play fighting/slap boxing. PLEASE encourage your student to follow our school rules as they are certainly not complicated: Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Safe!
