HELLO GES FAMILIES!

Good afternoon SCOUT families, I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend with their SCOUTS! We have a lot going on at GES this week so pay close attention so you don't miss out.

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!

Check out the information in the ParentSquare message about our upcoming Goodies with Guardians

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 CONFIDENT and ASSERTIVE. The word CONFIDENT means feeling sure of yourself and your abilities. ASSERTIVE means the ability to speak up for ourselves in a way that is honest and respectful. 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 everyday.
