Thank you to our local Veterans and Police Chief, Skaggs, for coming to our Veterans Day Assembly! Also a huge thank you to our GMS Band and Choir students for providing your assistance! If you missed the live stream, we will be uploading it to the Gravette School District YouTube channel soon. This was our first time trying something like this, so we thank you for your patience and understanding with our live stream hiccups 🥰 Great job, lions!
Raise your hand if you love art! Our GUE lions sure do! 🤚🤚🤚
Today was the perfect day to grab a book and get lost in it! Mrs. Gripe and Mrs. Newbill always have the best recommendations!
On November 10th, at 1:15 p.m., parents and guardians are invited to join us online for the live stream of our Veteran's Day assembly. This assembly will include GDE and GUE. There will also be a guest speaker from our very own Gravette PD! Because of space constraints, we are not able to allow parents to attend in person this year. However, we will have a live stream available for anyone who would like to attend. Click here to watch: https://www.youtube.com/@gravetteyt2297

Mrs. Griffin's class recently did a little activity on storytelling! When passing by the classwork that is hung in the hallway, you can't help but stop and read about the scarecrow who had a "pinkity drinkity" from Starbucks. Thank you for the funny story, Sophie! 🥰

Here are the pics from yesterday's student-led Red Ribbon Assembly! Thank you to Ms. Robinson & the student Lighthouse leadership team for putting this together.

Don't forget! There is NO SCHOOL THIS FRIDAY due to Fall Break 🍁
Attendance is a crucial aspect of a student's academic journey, and it cannot be stressed enough how important it is to attend school regularly! While some may argue that missing a few classes here and there doesn't make a significant difference, the truth is that attendance plays a vital role in a student's overall success and development! Take a look at how the numbers break down and how much instructional time your child may be missing.

Get EXCITED! It was officially approved at the last School Board meeting that GUE is getting a therapy dog! 🐶 Seeing how Glenn A. Duffy's therapy dog, Tilly, interacts and improves student's days, we just couldn't say no to those benefits! Please note, that therapy dogs go through rigorous training and are prepped for all the possibilities they could encounter so they are the perfect gentleman or lady around people. We understand some students may have hesitations around dogs, but we assure you that any interaction with our future therapy dog will be fully on your child's terms so it's a positive interaction ☺
The Student Lighthouse Team is hard at work learning about leadership skills, leadership roles in the school, community service, and are hard at work preparing for their first student-led pep rally on Monday, October 23rd for Red Ribbon Week. In order to be a member of this team, the students had to fill out an application. They were chosen anonymously from the Student Action Team of Teachers based on their responses to the questions.
Mark your calendars for the upcoming GUE Fall Family Night! 🍁 We can't wait!!
