Dear GMS Families,

As we move through the next few weeks, let's remember that our success goes beyond academics and athletics. It's about the strength of our Greene Devil Family. Whether it's cheering each other on, lending a hand, or offering words of encouragement, we are stronger together. Let's continue to support one another, both in the classroom and on the field, as a united Greene Devil Family.

Go Devils!

Sincerely,
GMS Admin Team

In order to provide all students with the opportunity to obtain extra help with homework, research time, and/or remediation, our school will provide an afterschool program. This program takes place on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays after school from 2:40pm to 4:40pm. The following link will provide you with the days we are open: https://tinyurl.com/2024-25RISECalendar The After-School Program is open to students by application only. If you choose to sign up for this program, you are required to attend. Teachers with experience in all subjects are available.
Students residing within the city limits of Greeneville will be provided bus transportation to their homes following the program. The buses will load at approximately 4:30 pm. Car riders should be signed out by a parent or guardian between 4:25 and 4:30 at the back door of the commons area of the building.

If your child is to participate in this program, fill in the appropriate information completely. If your child does not have permission on file, he/she will not be allowed to stay after school for the program. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Andrea Tolley at tolleya@gcschools.net.

Any student-athlete needing to drop off items in the locker room during arrival will be allowed to do so during the last 5 minutes of morning bus duty. The doors will open at 7:30 and close at 7:35. This will be the only time student athletes are allowed in the locker room areas in the mornings.

Dropping off equipment is not an excuse for a tardy to Devil Time.

If your student requires any daily medications, As-Needed Meds, or a diagnosis that requires any medical needs please reach out to Nurse Megan as soon as possible.

Any further questions please call GMS or email Nurse Megan at venerablem@gcschools.net

Families please remember that students should not carry medication with them in their backpack. This includes prescriptions and OTC medications. Everything should go through our nurse. If you have not filled out the medication release form with our nurse and need your student to have access to those during school hours, please email the GMS nurse
