From the Desk of Ms. Murdock
Good afternoon!
We have begun to implement TalkingPoints - please see below for more information.
TalkingPoints is a texting platform that allows families to receive the messaging as a text or through the TalkingPoints app. It also provides instant access to the messages in more than 150 languages. For families who choose to receive TalkingPoint communication straight to your text inbox, you will need to save the text numbers separately so you know who they are from. Otherwise, we encourage you to download the TalkingPoints for Parents mobile app in the app store on your iPhone or Android for additional features. More information about accessing messages can be found on our GJPS District website.
Have a wonderful weekend.
C3 (Character Counts Club)
POP TAB COLLECTION November 10 - January 9
Students and staff pop out and bring in your pop tabs. Collect the tabs during your family and friend gatherings over the Thanksgiving and winter break. Bring them into your homeroom from November to January. C3 will donate them to the Central Ohio chapter of the Ronald McDonald House. It’s an easy way to do something good and make a difference in the life of a seriously ill child. The winning homeroom of each grade level gets a popcorn party. The winner of each grade will get points toward survivors too.
