Something awesome is coming in 17 days!!!
We ๐งก when Officer Crane comes into the classroom! ๐ฎโโ๏ธ He reminded our Lions the best ways to stay safe while at school! #experiencetheroar


IMPORTANT INFO PARENTS โผ 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. ๐ Thank you for understanding!
A day late, but still just as cute ๐งก First day of school pictures from Ms. Hunter's Pre-K class ๐ท




The first day of school is in the books โ 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 ๐งก 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 ๐งก Miss. Arkansas Elementary, Kynelee Woods, was the highlight of our day๐ Our community is the BEST! #experiencetheroar

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 ๐ #experiencetheroar
