Since we missed the last hat day due to snow and AMI, hat day will be this FRIDAY thanks to GMS PTO ๐ฅณ If your child would like to wear a hat to school on Friday, have them bring $1 to the GMS PTO ladies that will be set up in the cafeteria that morning. Your child will receive a stamp on their hand and be set! If your child is in athletics in the morning, they can go to the cafeteria before 2nd hour and still pay to wear a hat ๐

Tomorrow (Friday, February 3rd) will be another AMI day for students. Again, please look towards your child's teacher for further information. This is due to backroads and parking lots still being covered in ice (which will refreeze tonight) and therefore will be a huge safety risk. Our #1 priority is keeping all of our students and staff safe! Thank you for understanding!
