Volleyball season is over.  7A girls are Southwest Champions.



GMS is in the middle of Student Council Elections. Campaign posters have been placed all over campus.  Voting is October 28th.  Best of luck to all participants.  





Facility Condition Assessment and Educational Suitability Assessment.  
The Facilities and Bond Planning Advisory Committee was charged with evaluating the capital improvement needs of the district.  Over the past few months, AECOM, a private company, has completed an assessment for each campus.  Results from this assessment can be seen at www.AISDFuture.com
 A summary for GMS can be seen under Fact Sheet and a detailed explanation can be seen under Reports.  Its hard to believe but GMS has quite a few needs.  We are almost 10 years old and because of this we haven't benefited from recent bonds.  Feedback for the reports can be done through the Feedback section on this site.  All information will be used to provide recommendations for a bond election in 2017.  Please let me know if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer them.

ELA students are finishing up their first Book Club book.  Mrs. Sindt's shared themes today.


Author Marie Lu shared her experiences with student this week. She was a great treat.

Next week GMS is celebrating Red Ribbon Week.  We are taking a stand against drugs!  Simone, a 7th grader on campus has created a plan for the week.  Monday is wear red; Tuesday is Hawaiian day "LEI off drugs"; Wednesday is Western day "give drugs the BOOT"; Thursday is Superhero day "Have the POWER to say no!; and Friday is Twin day "Working together can put drugs away forever"!


Enjoy the cooler weather and have a great weekend.
