WE NEED YOU!
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 end.
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!
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, no play fighting/slap boxing, and stop the negative behavior on SOCIAL MEDIA!!. PLEASE encourage your student to follow our school rules as they are certainly not complicated: Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Safe!
