Principal's Message

October 27, 2024

HELLO GES FAMILIES!

Good afternoon SCOUT families, I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend with their SCOUTS! It was so nice to see all of the family members that were able to come and eat breakfast with their SCOUTS this past week! I would like to thank our PTO and members of the GES staff who helped put on such a welcoming event for our families! We value your partnership and will continue to include opportunities for you to join us at GES! We have a lot going on at GES this week with Red Ribbon Week!

GES Spirit night at Groucho's in Batesburg from 4:00-8:00 place your receipt in the jar and our PTO will get a portion of the proceeds

Friday, November 1st is the last day to get items from the lost and found. They will be donated after school on Friday.

PTO Change War - which costume will Mr. Deyo have to wear this year? There will be 3 change buckets with costume choices in the lobby every day this month. Students are excited about the choices - a pumpkin, a taco, or a chicken! Check the GES PTO Facebook page for updates!

Our PTO is also excited to offer the opportunity to purchase Gilbert Elementary School T-shirts, long sleeve T-shirts, and sweatshirts. The merchandise store is now open. There are three different styles and they all look great! Can't wait to see our SCOUTS wearing these around the school soon! Click here to visit the online store, it is open until November 3rd. As always, thanks for supporting our PTO! They are working hard to provide lots of opportunities for our SCOUTS!

Our two words for this week are DILIGENT and TACTFUL. The word DILIGENT means to perform tasks with effort from start to finish. TACTFUL means saying the right thing at the right time, and being appropriate and sensitive, never rude or careless. We encourage students to use these words in conversation, look for them in books, and we've challenged them to teach you about them and discover other ways they may be used or found in everyday life.
