Dear 8^th Grade Parents,

It is hard to believe the kids final year of middle school is almost over! We are in the process of planning the Eighth Grade Exit to celebrate their graduation and wish them future success in high school. We have some great things planned this year but need your help!  We are getting Greeks Pizza and Grafton Peak is making our graduation cake! We also will be taking a class photo as a memento. In order to provide fun events like this for our kids we rely on donations from parents like you and members of our community. We have some wonderful local businesses helping us out with donations, however we still need your help! If you are willing to send in an $8 donation, that would go a long way in helping us make this celebration great! Please send cash or check made payable to GMS PTO to Mrs. Begley.  Let’s work together to make this celebration one our kids will remember!

Thank you for your support

Canvas is our new student learning management system. GMS teachers can use it in many ways, including assignment explanations and downloads, online lessons, and a calendar of events and due dates. Parent accounts are available, which enable parents to view all of the information as well.

*There are a few ground rules to registering for a parent account in Canvas: 

1.       The parent needs to know the students’ lunch number and PowerSchool password.
2.       Parents will have to validate the account setup based on an email confirmation – they need to use real email accounts or else they will never complete the process.
3.       Only one account is needed – multiple kiddos can be observed with the same parent account.
