Principal's Message

Good afternoon GFE Families,

As we approach the final week before Spring Break, we want to thank you for your continued support of our students and school. We are looking forward to a strong and successful week of learning!


Last Week Before Spring Break
This is our last week before Spring Break, and we encourage all students to remain focused, follow expectations, and continue giving their best effort each day. Attendance remains important, and we look forward to finishing strong!


Student Behavior Expectations
Please take time to review school expectations with your child. As excitement builds for Spring Break, we may see an increase in behaviors. We ask for your partnership in reminding students to:

  • Follow school rules and expectations

  • Show respect to peers and staff

  • Make positive choices throughout the school day and on the bus
