GMS 6-8 Principal Spotlight - 10.17.2025

Dear GMS Families,

Here comes a week of great classroom lessons, lots of athletic events, District II vocal and instrumental festival auditions, and our first 7th/8th school dance.  Keep reading!

 

Our 7th and 8th Grade Fall Dance is coming up on Thursday, October 24! The GMS PTO is seeking donations of pizza, bagged snacks, and other salty or sweet treats to make the night a success. Please use this SignUpGenius link  to contribute—thank you for supporting our students!     Jared Libby, GMS STUCO

  7th Grade Families, if you missed the previous deadline for The Ecology School overnight trip, there’s still an opportunity to register.  Info here.

Compliments

Last Thursday we practiced with an evacuation drill to GHS. One of our substitutes, who has spent a full career working in middle schools, shared this comment.  “I just have to tell you how impressed I was with the behavior and discipline of all the students today.  I have been in many different schools and been through drills as well as real situations and I've never seen middle school kids, and so many of them, act so well.  Kudos.”
