We are very excited to announce that Mrs. Maybearry and GSA Middle have been awarded a $10,000 PLTW Gateway Grant from Project Lead the Way and Emerson! The grant is awarded to schools in order for them to start or expand their PLTW courses and bring STEM education to more kids. The grant will allow GSA Middle to further diversify our PLTW offerings with some new courses and to purchase much needed updates for our existing resources and programming. We are especially excited to expand into PLTW: Automation and Robotics, bringing more learning opportunities for our students and enhancing our already amazing Robotics program. Congratulations to Mrs. Maybearry!

Middle School Student Council is excited to announce the launch of its latest service project, the February Canned Food Drive! Here's what you need to know:

• Each grade level at GSA Middle is competing to see who can donate the most ounces of canned goods.
• Cans must be in good condition and not expired to be counted.
• Social Studies teachers’ classrooms will serve as the drop-off locations for each grade.
• The grade that donates the most canned goods by the end of February wins a donut party provided by admin during an advisory period in March!
• All canned goods will be donated to a local food pantry in March.

Public viewing is from 11:30 - 12:45. Awards are presented in the Omnimax Theater in the afternoon. Please join in wishing all of our scientists good luck!

Students who score high enough will then be invited to the Science Fair in Chicago.
