 While walking outside this week, I found Green Ag students in one of the gardens...

Woodshop students are back at making projects...


GMS Faculty loves our Popcorn Fridays.  Thank you, PTA!


The Tiger of the Week has become so popular I have students "blowing up" my emails wanting to nominate their teacher.  I love that our students love their teachers! 
Mr. Grimes is no exception.  

It is really hard to be new to campus during the middle of a pandemic and extra hard if you are the librarian.  But Mrs. Fuller has done a great job promoting the GMS Library.  
Happy Librarian Week.


And by far, GMS has the best Assistant Principals...
Happy Assistant Principal Week.!


Have a great and relaxing weekend!

 GMS has over 400 students back in the building and it is great to see and hear the roar of students all over the building.  


New artwork can be seen around the building...





Our Teacher Tiger of the Week is Mrs. Huerta.  


GMS also started Student of the Week.  Each week every teacher is nominating a student.  Today was the first group of students.  Students and their parents received emails today with the student award.  Continue to be on the lookout each Friday.

  Remember next Friday is a student holiday.  Have a great weekend.

 Sometimes we just need to have a little fun.  With two years of Tiger Days unable to happen, GMS felt like we needed to do something fun.  So we created a modified Tiger Day Scavenger Hunt around the school.  Following all safety protocols, students were able to get out of the classroom and find different locations around the school.  

Mrs. Dahill's class chose to wear party hats for the occasion... 


The snack location was a hit...


Students left messages all over campus...


Hair painting was a close second to snacks...


Just chillin' on the rocks in Tiger Ally...


Maybe students did have too much caffeine, sorry families...


GMS chicken and goats loved all the attention...



I think this way is better.  We break the confetti eggs on the students...


Thank you all to help with our Modified Tiger Day.  It was a great way to start Spring Break.  See everyone back on the 22nd.

 There have been many times this past year that I have been grateful to the Gorzcyki community.  This week was yet another reminder of how awesome the GMS community is.  

Thank you, GMS community.


GMS Dance Teams have created a Tiger of the Week.  Mrs. Dammann was the first teacher nominated!  Congratulations, she received a gift card from the PTA and school. 

There are lots of things happening next week.  If you haven't signed up to receive the GMS PTA newsletter please do so.  PTA does a great job reminding everyone about upcoming events.  

Next Friday, GMS is hosting a "Modified Tiger Day".  More information will be coming for how both on-campus and remote students can participate.  

Have a great weekend.
