SHINE ON!

We are so impressed with our Sunbeams after our first full week of school!

In Music and Chapel, we are starting at the beginning! We read the creation story in Genesis and learned our first Bible verse. We also learned our school rules song!

October Enrichment sign ups will be posted on Brightwheel on Tuesday, September 16th at 6:30pm. Going forward, Lunch Bunch, Art, STEM and Creative Movement sign ups will be posted the 2nd Tuesday of the month.

Spirit Night at Bruster's Ice Cream Leesburg next Wednesday (September 17th) from 5-8pm. Ms. Heather will be a guest scooper! Be sure to mention "GBP" when you order and Bruster's will donate 10% of the proceeds. We raised almost $200 last Spring at our Bruster's Spirit Night!

Ice cream, fellowship and a fundraiser for GBP-we all scream for ice cream!!!

Mark your calendars: September Special Chapel is September 24th and 25th. More information to come in next week's newsletter!

We have a couple openings in our 3s and 4s classes. If you know of you anyone looking for a preschool family, send them our way! We also have a couple openings in our Friday Enrichment class. Friday Frogs is open to current Bees and Owls (4s) and T/TH 3s. The class meets every Friday from 9am-12pm and is STEM based. Contact Ms. Heather to sign up or for more information.

Please remember to pull up as far as possible on Wirt Street during drop off and pick up. Also, please do not block the driveway to the left of the Wirt Street doors, we do not own that property. Lastly, please remember (and share with anyone else who may pick up your children): our Owls and Bees are in their classrooms until Noon. If you arrive before noon to pick up your Owls/Bees/siblings, please remain in your vehicle so you can pull up when other parents leave.

-2s and 3s pick up: 11:50am-12pm

-4s and siblings pick up: 12-12:15pm
