GLPS Families,
For my update this week, please take a moment to watch this short video (or click here to read the transcript). In this season of giving thanks, I want to express my appreciation for you and the entire GLPS family! In addition, I have a couple of reminders for you:
John Ellsworth sent you an email earlier in the week about joining the transportation team. If you or someone you know is interested in being a bus driver, please visit our website: glcomets.net/drivers. And speaking of buses, please remember that school bus lights are like traffic signals: yellow means prepare to stop and red means stop. Please keep all our kids safe; they might be crossing the road, so remember, if the reds are flashing, there is no passing!
This is the last call for our BMEA culture and climate survey. Thank you to those who have already filled it out!
That is all I have this week. Please note that because of the short week next week, I will not be sending a weekly update, so happy Thanksgiving for those who celebrate. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to work with you and your children every day; as always, I am #proudtobeacomet!
Dr. Bill Barnes
Superintendent of Schools
