Principal's Message


Good Evening, GFE Families!

We hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! As we begin another exciting week at Great Falls Elementary, please review these important reminders and upcoming events as we continue working together to provide a safe, positive, and successful learning environment for all of our Dream Chasers!

🌟 Congratulations to Our Students of the Month!

Congratulations to all of our Students of the Month! We are incredibly proud of each of you for your hard work, positive choices, and commitment to excellence.

A special thank you to all of the parents, grandparents, and family members who joined us on Friday to help celebrate our students. Having you there made the celebration even more special. We appreciate your continued support and partnership as we celebrate the accomplishments of our Dream Chasers!

🧸 Toys & Unauthorized Items

Please continue checking your child’s bookbag and ensure students are not bringing inappropriate or unauthorized toys or items to school. These items can become distractions and interfere with learning.

👕 Dress Code

Please ensure your child comes to school each day dressed in accordance with the Chester County School District dress code. Thank you for helping our students arrive ready to learn and represent GFE proudly.

🚗 Car Rider Reminders

Please have your GFE car rider tag displayed when picking up your child. If you do not have your car tag, you will be required to come to the main office with a valid photo ID before your child can be released.

The morning car rider line ends at 7:55 a.m. Students arriving after this time must be brought to the main entrance.

⏰ Tuesday, September 15 – Early Release Day

Tuesday is an Early Release Day, but it is still an important school day! Please make plans for your child to attend school and for the adjusted dismissal schedule.

🐝 First GFE Club Day – Tuesday, September 15!

We are excited to host our first Club Day of the school year! Every student will have the opportunity to participate in an enrichment activity that interests them. Club Day is designed to give our Dream Chasers opportunities to explore new interests, build relationships, develop talents, and have fun while learning.

Your child cannot participate if they are not at school, so attendance matters! We want every Dream Chaser here and ready to enjoy this special experience.

👩‍🏫 Parent-Teacher Conferences Are Coming!

Parent-Teacher Conferences are coming up soon! Please be on the lookout for information from your child’s teacher regarding conference dates and scheduling.

These conferences are an important opportunity to discuss your child’s academic progress, celebrate successes, address any concerns, and discuss ways we can continue working together to support your child. We encourage every family to participate!

📰 September Family Newsletter

Please review the attached September Family Newsletter for additional school updates, reminders, and upcoming events.

Thank you, GFE families, for your continued partnership and support. Together, we are building a school where our students feel connected, supported, and inspired to chase their dreams.
