MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

GLOW Students & Families,

I hope you had a great weekend and are looking forward to the week ahead!

After a series of shortened weeks due to workdays and wintry weather we are thankful to be scheduled for uninterrupted 5-day weeks as we make our way to the end of 3rd quarter. The weeks are flying by and these are important days that lie ahead. Please make every effort to ensure that students are present and on time for school each day.

The newsletter below is filled with the latest news and updates from GLOW. Be sure to check it out!

Wishing you all a great week ahead!
