Our MIGHTY Gaston Elementary School achieved our audacious goal of raising $23,000
during the Fun Run this year!! GREAT JOB, STUDENTS!
Since the students did their part to meet their goal,
Mrs. Miller, had to fulfill her end of the agreement by getting SLIMED!
MOVIE NIGHT THIS FRIDAY!
This Friday, November 21st, we are going to get a little festive with a showing of Dr. Seuss' The Grinch! This movie is rated PG and students must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Be sure to wear your comfy pajamas and get cozy for a fun night together.
Doors open at 6pm, movie will begin at 6:15pm.
There will be pizza by the slice, hot dogs, and to match the festive theme - hot cocoa! Other snacks and goodies will be available to purchase. Outside food is always welcome.
We can't wait to see you there!

Hosted by our wonderful PTO and a special thanks to a fun loving group of parents
