Family Update

The organization Parents Against Vaping is hosting a FREE virtual event on November 19th called “Dangers of Vaping: What Parents Need to Know in 2024” that is open to the public. The event flyer is linked here and includes a QR code to register.

As the weather begins to change, please make sure your student is appropriately dressed for it. Students will be outside until 8:40 in the mornings and we will have outdoor recess if the "feels like" temperature is 31 degrees and above. If your student needs a hat or gloves ask them to stop in the front office.

Here is the link to pre-order your students drink for BeasTeas. Pre-order is the preferred method as it allows students to get through the line faster and eliminates students having to rush their beverage before returning to class. Please use the pre-order link.

8th grade science is looking for as many empty full size Pringle containers and empty 2 liter bottles as we can collect from now until April for some projects we will be doing!

Please consider participating in our PTO's Bags and Bottle Drive to benefit GRIN!

You can volunteer to help with First Fridays here

You can sign up here to help with concession for our basketball games.

The Heart and Pride Award recognizes two outstanding staff members each month who make a profound impact on our students and Gahanna-Jefferson Public Schools.
