10 days until the GRAVETTE MUSIC FESTIVAL!!! Come join in the fun!
Friday, September 9th from 5:00PM-6:00PM in the GHS courtyard, immediately preceding our first home football game. ALL are welcome!
Students attending the Music Festival will receive a wristband that allows them to sing the National Anthem and School Fight Song on the stadium track right before kickoff. It's going to be a NOTE-able night!
Take "note"... the 10 day countdown to the big event starts tomorrow!
Congratulations to our FIRST GDE Student of the Week! 2nd-grader, Lucas Carson, is our winner. We are SO proud of you 🎉 One of Lucas's teachers stated, "Lucas made great choices in the library this week. He followed all of our "Rug Rules" without having to be reminded. He didn't let others distract him from paying attention and raised his hand each time before speaking. When the class had STEM time, Lucas was waiting patiently until his STEM kit was placed at his table where he quietly played with his table friend. Lucas is a great example of LION PRIDE!" #experiencetheroar
In honor of 'National Dog Day' 🐶 Say hello to Principal Brecheen's dog, Tilly! She is a registered therapy dog and LOVES coming to see our Lions. Mrs. Sisemore's 1st-grade class snagged a class picture with sweet Tilly girl 💕 #experiencetheroar
When Ms. Martin's first graders were asked, "Wow, you all look so big and grown! There's no way you all could be first graders?!" Ian spoke up and said "Well, in like a few months I'll be an adult. Most of us are going to be turning 7 this year. So that could be why we look so big." Don't blink, parents. According to Ian, you'll have adults in no time! 🤣
As the second week of school is underway, Mrs. Davis's 2nd-graders are focusing on creating good habits! ✔ It looks like they are already off to an AWESOME start. Look at those listening ears, focused eyes, and calm hands. Great work, Lions! #experiencetheroar
16 days until the BIG EVENT!
We 🧡 when Officer Crane comes into the classroom! 👮♂️ He reminded our Lions the best ways to stay safe while at school! #experiencetheroar
Something awesome is coming in 17 days!!!
IMPORTANT INFO PARENTS ‼ Please remember that tomorrow, Friday 8/19, we will be doing our regular "Fast Friday" schedule. For our Parents new to GDE, "Fast Friday" simply means the bell schedule is slightly changed so that our Lions can be released EARLY. This occurs every Friday. Car Riders will be dismissed at 2:22pm and Bus Riders will be dismissed at 2:25pm. 👍 Thank you for understanding!
A day late, but still just as cute 🧡 First day of school pictures from Ms. Hunter's Pre-K class 📷
The first day of school is in the books ✔ As the saying goes, "it takes a village", and we are SO thankful for every staff member in our GDE Village. Especially, our Facilities crew. Janitor Brian saw an opportunity to help a young Lion find the way to his classroom and gave him words of encouragement while carrying his lunch box for him 🧡 We can already tell this will be the best year yet! #experiencetheroar
THANK YOU to the Woods family for donating a huge bag of nursing supplies to GDE 🧡 Miss. Arkansas Elementary, Kynelee Woods, was the highlight of our day👑 Our community is the BEST! #experiencetheroar
We are Lion Pride! Great things are happening for all of our Lions:

When asked, "What are you most excited for in this upcoming school year?", Ms. Betz lit up and said, "I just got my list of students today! I'm excited to get 20 new sweet faces. I get to teach and mold them. They even teach and mold me back." Get excited students and parents! Our teachers are ready to start the year 😊 #experiencetheroar
